15:03 isolysis hi
15:03 void hi
15:06 isolysis hey void, i've been trying to restore a typo3 site because i had to move servers, and ive been having some issues.. but the latest one seems to be that if i restore the database, i have the page tree structure in the backend but the content elements are not shown for editing, on the other hand if i try to restore the site pages via the .t3d import, i click import and the page goes blank,...
15:06 isolysis ...nothing happens..
15:07 isolysis i think it may have something to do with my mysql version, so i am restoring that with a manual install.. will have to see how it goes
15:07 void if you have different mysql versions, i'd recommed to use .t3d
15:08 void maybe you used wrong options during exporting t3d
15:13 isolysis void: when i exported i tried to select all tables, infinite levels, preserve relations etc, everything maximum i think.. but i need to setup my mysql first, i will report back to see if that helped, because initially i had problems with logging into typo3 backend, but it turns out the auto installer of php probably screwed something up because manual install of php fixed the login
15:13 isolysis i dont think it helped that we have 64 bit OS this time
16:27 Phlogi typo3 has no maintenance mode right?
16:37 kermit_green What do you mean with maintanace mode ?
16:37 timdeluxe hm, not directly, it depends on what you want to do
16:59 Phlogi So that every request to a page goes to one same page....
17:00 Phlogi that informs the user that the site is currently down
17:04 timdeluxe and for what purpose? do you want to set up new pages in the backend?
17:04 Phlogi yes or if I'm creating a new page, but don't want anyone to be able to access it...
17:05 Phlogi it would be great if backend users can normally browse the site if they are logged in
17:07 kermit_green Just give the new pages to a usergroup, so a normal FE user can't visit them
17:10 Phlogi kermit_green: hmm yes, but its not that confortable
17:11 Phlogi can I set it for all pages at once? =)
17:23 timdeluxe never heard of workspaces?
17:26 timdeluxe never used them by myself, but if you speak german, this could help you: http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/extension-manuals/doc_v4_workspace/1.0.5/view/
17:28 timdeluxe another simple solution would be to change the root template, but then the backend users cant see the page also
18:15 socken23 Hi all! indexed_search works, but searches in header and keywords by default. How can I switch that to page content?
18:16 socken23 ah, I created my own search box which links to the search page. It works if I select page content in the search page of course...
18:42 isolysis is there any way to view what's in a .t3d file? i made an export file, but i need to find out some information like the database character set was it utf8, but opening the file in wordpad gives all garbed text
18:58 timdeluxe isolysis: there was a t3d "unzipper" somewhere, i needed it by myself someday
18:58 timdeluxe cant remember where it was
18:59 timdeluxe i think it was posted on some forum
19:00 isolysis timdeluxe: oh, cool, i will search it online after i have my dinner..
19:00 isolysis thanks
19:04 isolysis Are you sure you saved mapping information into Template Object with UID "18"?" from what i read online it is something to do with character encodings ut8 etc, but i am struggling now and getting desperate argh! plus after dumping the database i can't save anything anymore, i.e. i can see the content elements under 'list' view but not 'page' view.. and if i try to edit something , it just...
19:04 isolysis in the meantime if anyone has any ideas for me: i am trying to restore my site from a previous server, but dumping the database will work, but in backend i lose all records from the 'edit page' section, plus the front end says ":Template Object could not be unserialized successfully.
19:04 isolysis ...goes blank.
19:16 timdeluxe sounds crazy. i did not have those problems when changing from php/mysql 4 to php/mysql 5
19:17 timdeluxe did you manage to import the database with the old character set -> latin... ?
19:18 timdeluxe isolysis: if you are interested in i could try to get your page working on my server to help you finding out where the problem is...
19:20 isolysis timdeluxe: thanks, i appreciate the offer
19:21 isolysis i am going to see if i can troubleshoot it for abit longer
19:21 isolysis i will give you an update on where i am at currently.. because last we spoke i had login issues
19:21 timdeluxe yes, i remember :)
19:21 isolysis but those are resolved now, since i unintalled php from auto instaler, and re install manually and enaabled some extensions like mcrypt
19:22 isolysis so login to backend works
19:22 timdeluxe but you experience strange problems...
19:22 isolysis the next issue that arose for me, was that i couldnt' restore database without the templavoila errors, and the records not showing under 'page' view... it will show under 'list' not but page, and plus trying to edit and save results in blank page
19:23 isolysis clicking clear cache link also makes the menu frame go blank
19:23 timdeluxe hm. did you update the mapping in templa voila?
19:23 timdeluxe and how about memory limit?
19:23 isolysis i setup a separate typo3 install.. and tested things there, and for example clicking clear cache works ok, it doesnt make the page go blank, but once i dump the old db into it, then it starts doing that too
19:24 isolysis i am pretty sure that it has something to do with my character encoding somewhere
19:25 timdeluxe i am, too :)
19:25 timdeluxe try to import the database with the old character set, i did that, too
19:26 timdeluxe and check after import if database and tables really have the old set
19:26 timdeluxe with myadmin that is easy to do
19:29 Phlogi timdeluxe: I even used workspaces :D
19:31 timdeluxe Phlogi: and? happy about it? ;D
19:32 Phlogi more or less :D
19:32 isolysis timdeluxe: i just checked the templa voila mapping structure, and it was lost also, so i started mapping them again which working fine, but when i click 'save' then the page went blank, just like everywhere else i click save and it gets screwed up
19:32 isolysis i think php has memory limit set at 128mb and the server has plently
19:33 timdeluxe hm
19:33 timdeluxe very strange
19:50 isolysis well i am doing some further testing, on separate fresh install.. i can import t3d files for other testsite packages, but i cant import any of my own t3d files even if they were not my most recent backup.. so i am fairly confident that its not the server enviroment to blame but my old database encoding
19:51 isolysis i think my next issue is working out what character set was being used in my old db and how to restore it as that
20:04 Phlogi isolysis: or convert it to utf8, and make everything utf8
20:04 Phlogi I had to do that too once
20:05 Phlogi I'm not even sure if I had similar problems as you
20:05 Phlogi it was a horrible afternoon
20:05 Phlogi i ended up with a character replacement script to fix my .sql
20:07 uschi hey phlogi, i suffer with you
20:07 isolysis Phlogi: do you have any tips on how to convert the sql file easily to utf8 ?
20:07 uschi this is some ordeal still in front of me
20:20 Phlogi hehe
20:20 Phlogi isolysis: hmm use iconv on unix
20:20 Phlogi or recode
20:20 Phlogi and do just on your .sql file
20:20 Phlogi you could do it with an editor too.... but if the file is large...
20:21 isolysis im on windows.. i checked the sql file about 12mb
20:22 isolysis it has lines like this: ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=6 ;
20:22 isolysis i exported this dump via phpmyadmin
20:22 isolysis within plesk
20:22 isolysis now i cant remember if my orignial was utf8 or not and i selected to export in the wrong encoding
21:38 bekks hi
21:39 bekks is it a known bug that using the id= parameter in an URL, typo3 is exploitable with XSS attacks?
21:39 bekks i just checked the trunk svn code to verify theres no check to prevent calls like ?id=http/...
22:52 solshark Hello all
22:57 Denyerec Hye so
22:57 Denyerec Hey sol
22:57 Denyerec bekks - have you exectured such an attack ?
22:58 bekks yes.
22:58 bekks today, at about 14:30 UTC
22:58 Denyerec In which case, I would write to the security team immediately.
22:58 Denyerec If you don't have their contact, I can find it for you
22:58 bekks how do i reach them by email?
22:58 Denyerec one sec
22:59 Denyerec http://typo3.org/teams/security/
23:01 bekks so i'd just contact them by providing as many information as i can and sending an email to the one at http://typo3.org/teams/security/contact-us/ ?
23:01 Denyerec Seems that way
23:02 Denyerec Seems odd to me that they'd leave such an obvious security hole open.
23:02 Denyerec Did you manage to do anything offensive with it?
23:03 bekks yes. i am able to exploit the webserver running some ancient php version to be able to access a high port shell with werbservers access right to send spam emails
23:04 bekks i even have the exploit script used to do so by the attacker handy.
23:04 Denyerec That's good enough for me.
23:04 Denyerec :)
23:04 bekks so you are in the security team? :)
23:05 Denyerec Oh, no no.
23:05 Denyerec But if I were, that'd be enough justification for a hotfix release
23:05 Denyerec :)
23:06 bekks the point is, that the corresponding function in the t3 div class is mainly unfixed since 3.7.1
23:07 bekks maybe the necessary checks are done elsewhere ... but not where the given var is being read and checked.
23:13 Rocketjock Hello Everyone
23:14 bekks Denyerec: do you have any idea wherelse those checks could be done?
23:14 Denyerec nOT AT ALL :(
23:29 Rocketjock anyone know what IRC varnish (the reverse proxy) is on?
23:52 joebankz is there anyone out there?
23:56 joebankz I would like to have a clean unordered list. But as it is now, it prints the html in a lump.
23:57 joebankz instead of neat line breaks between each <ul> and <li>, I get them all run together.
23:57 joebankz any thoughts.
23:57 joebankz ?
23:59 joebankz can someone help me?
23:59 joebankz newb here.
23:59 isolysis_ joebankz: post your q
