Hello all. I have read everywhere that Sentinel is a must when running a phpnuke site so I got the newest release (2.4.0) and tried to install it.

Everything was going smooth untill I got to edits for core files. Most of the changes to be made in the mainfile7.8 could not be done because alot of the code referenced to be changed was not there. I am at a loss at this point since mose of the edits I need to do I cannot seem to do? Not sure where to go from here...

Step one...start over using 7.6

It has been said time and time again that 7.7 and 7.8 are security NIGHTMARES with or without Sentinel. In fact, we currently do not offer support for it due to this security issue.

Little too late LoL... Unfortunately I found out after I purchased and installed nuke 7.8 and all my original website content arghhhh

There has to be a way to install it anyways right? I mean the newest sentinel release says 7.1-7.8?? Is there no way for me to get sentinel running on 7.8? I would revert to 7.6 if I could but that isn't really an option for me at this point....

You can downgrade to 7.6 using this nifty utility and then don't have to worry about the 7.7/7.8 exploits. Be sure to install Sentinel of course.

If you are determined to use the unstable 7.8 maybe one of the other moderators can offer suggestions on getting Sentinel installed. I personally don't want to risk exposing my server to hackers so I cannot install it to see what needs modding. Sorry. Sad

Thank you immensly for your help. I will take a look at the script and see about downgrading. Info on getting Sentinel to work with 7.8 would also still be most appreciated...

I looked at the script, so it will downgrade the database for me but I still need to upload the original 7.6 source files? Just a straight ftp of the 7.6 files or do I need to configure or change any code?

Thanks for helping a n00b!

I am almost 100 percent sure you delete all and upload 7.6, but be sure to copy your database details from config.php so that you can edit the one that comes with 7.6 so that it can connect to the database. The instructions should detail what to do as well.

I cannot imagine you experiencing any problems as long as you follow the instructions. I haven't installed the newest yet so I don't know if there are any issues but I do know that 2.3.2 is stable

Ok so check this out. I installed 7.6 fresh, tried to install Sentinel 2.3.2 and when I get to edits for core files I still have a snag.

for example I cannot find the code in admin.php that I should be able to find?

Code:

die("Illegal Operation");
}

#

//die("Illegal Operation");
//}


How can I install Sentinel if I cannot find the code I am suppose to edit? Most of the code I cannot find??

where did you get your patched Nuke from becouse the one i got still does not have the right code.

admin.php

#
#-----[ FIND ]------------------------------------------
#
$checkurl = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
if((stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'AddAuthor')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'VXBkYXRlQXV0aG9y')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'QWRkQXV0aG9y')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'UpdateAuthor')) || (preg_match("/\?admin/", "$checkurl")) || (preg_match("/\&admin/", "$checkurl"))) {
die("Illegal Operation");
}

#
#-----[ COMMENT OUT ]------------------------------------------
#
//$checkurl = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
//if((stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'AddAuthor')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'VXBkYXRlQXV0aG9y')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'QWRkQXV0aG9y')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'UpdateAuthor')) || (preg_match("/\?admin/", "$checkurl")) || (preg_match("/\&admin/", "$checkurl"))) {
//die("Illegal Operation");
//}



$checkurl = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
if((stripos_clone($checkurl,'AddAuthor')) OR (stripos_clone($checkurl,'VXBkYXRlQXV0aG9y')) OR (stripos_clone($checkurl,'QWRkQXV0aG9y')) OR (stripos_clone($checkurl,'UpdateAuthor')) OR (stripos_clone($checkurl, "?admin")) OR (stripos_clone($checkurl, "&admin"))) {
die("Illegal Operation");
}

and that is the first edit, i give up.

Same problem here. The comment out is wrong, and I can't get it right. It starts with one of the ")" in (stripos_clone($checkurl, "&admin"))) { and I can't correct the code from there. Unexpected character, can't parse.

Here's the idit that doesn't work.

$checkurl = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
if((stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'AddAuthor')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'VXBkYXRlQXV0aG9y')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'QWRkQXV0aG9y')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'UpdateAuthor')) || (preg_match("/\?admin/", "$checkurl")) || (preg_match("/\&admin/", "$checkurl"))) {

}

I mean post your code that you aren't able to comment out.

That's just it. When I comment out as instructed here, the code won't parse, and states that there's an extra ")" on this line: \&admin/", "$checkurl"))) { . I remove that, and more errors begin to pop up.

Just remove all that code completely. It isn't needed.
