NukeSentinel language problem

I have installed Nuke Sentinel before I followed all the instructions as far as I know to a tee. Ok heres the problem everything that is a link shows up messed up. IE --- the nuke protected symbol has a link to nukescripts at the bottom but it shows up like _AB_NUKESETINEL I also have a link in the admin panel that is the same thing. Last time I installed NS everything shows up like this. And I couldn't get everything back. I had to re-install nuke. I don't want to re-install again. My users are getting pissed at me for making them re sign in. Am I doind something wrong?

I am using nuke7.4
I know it's running on cgi not apache
I have no patches on the nuke version
Anything else you need to know?

Those are language variables, and since they are showing like that, that means you don't have the proper language files uploaded/modified.

Re-read through the install textfile and pay attention specifically to the language additions. That will solve your problem...

Ok I went into the lang file and everything has those tags on them everything starts with _AB_ How do I fix that?

in the html folder that comes in the distribution, there is a sub-folder named language, and in that a sub-folder named sentinel.

You need to upload that sentinel folder (along with all files in it) to:

nuke_root/language

so that when you're done, it look like:

nuke_root/language/sentinel

That has all the language variables defined in it...

yeah thats what im saying it's wierd I uploaded everything as it was.
Inside my Nuke/language/Sentinel are the files htaccess, index.html, lang-english.php and everything inside that lang file has that _AB_

Anyone ever find an answer to this? I have a 7.4 site doing the same thing - the language files look as if they are in the right place, but the _AB_ variables are all showing.

Did you add:

Code:

if(defined('FORUM_ADMIN')) {
@include_once("../../../includes/nukesentinel.php");
} elseif(defined('INSIDE_MOD')) {
@include_once("../../includes/nukesentinel.php");
} else {
@include_once("includes/nukesentinel.php");
}

to your mainfile.php? What your describing is a filure to load the language file which is loaded by default once that code is added to the top of yoru mainfile.php.

I did, checked that.

If you don't have that, it makes admin tough to get into in the first place... Wink

Sting,

Make sure that you don't have any old versions/files of NukeSentinel(TM) in your folders. That sometimes happens when it doesn't know which files to use. Are you running the latest version?

Yes, I grabbed the latest version. I ended up having to restore the site after a few more issues non-Sentinel related popped up. My guess is that somewhere in the upgrades a few things went awry. I am going to deinstall sentinel prior to the next nuke upgrade, then upgrade nuke and reinstall sentinel.

I do know that there were two directories in the language directory at one point - nukesentinel and sentinel.

Ah fun.

Thanks for the replies all...

I've also seen this happen when the admin panel shows 2 NukeSentinel(TM) icons.

You know - it did show 2 Nuke Sentinel(TM) icons come to think of it.

- Get rid of all NS files and reinstall or clean up the oldest one. Especially links, case, and modules.
