Member List problem

New Member Joined: Dec 22, 2005 Posts: 11

I just installed the newest ravens nuke pack and am having a problem with my members list. Everytime I click on it and try to view it I get a blank page with the following message.

"You can't access this file directly..."

I've reinstalled Nuke 3 times now and made a new database each time. I've got the same version of nuke running on another site and can't figure this out for the life of me.

Anyone with some insight?

That sounds like an ftp issue. Try re-ftp your modules/Members_List folder again as BINARY, not ASCII. Also, have you checked your error_log to see if there are any other errors? If that doesn't work, I would re-ftp all the files in binary mode.

this is in the coding error..i know u cant post the index.php of that module...so remove the section of code that says this

if (!eregi("modules.php", $PHP_SELF)) {
die ("You can't access this file directly...");

}

no this would be a temporary fix...but if it doesnt work..it might display the REAL reason its stoping u.

in the distro the line is

if (!eregi("modules.php", $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])) {
die ("You can't access this file directly...");
}

Try changing it to

if ( !defined('MODULE_FILE') )
{
die("You can't access this file directly...");
}

What version of PHP do you have on your site?

That code snippet should not even be in the modules index.php, it should be

Code:

if (!eregi("modules.php", $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])) {


    die ("You can't access this file directly...");


}

Ok if i comment out the original code it works and if i change it to what you said here it works. So yea cool thanks this was driving me nuts.

well you really don't want to just leave it out, as then the file can just be run by itself and bypass almost all security.

I am no guru but the other code should keep you safe enough, it is the code used in pretty much every other modual.

Yea I left the new code in.

Guardian is right with what code needs to be in that module's index.php script! You will want to keep that in.

You have an issue with one of your other files. Raven suggesting re-FTP'ing all your files using binary mode. I would do that, or at least try your root nuke directory files and the includes directory. However, if this fixes it, you need to do them all again to ensure you do not have other issues.

I thought it was funny that member list would have a different method to tell if it was in the module file then the others. I went and downloaded Chatserv version 3.2

Long story short, it looks like RN 7.6 distro missed a file in the 3.2b patch files for nuke 7.6 the line does read

if ( !defined('MODULE_FILE') )
{
die("You can't access this file directly...");
}

so unless there is a reason I don’t understand why it should be different. I think the above line should be the right statement to use.
