Eh, sorry to burst the bubble. I'm now experiencing an error when attempting to add an API key to an existing account:



I triple-checked to make sure the key was to show all characters, and even created an entirely new key to show all characters. But the error persists.

Thoughts?

Also, in checking the mod settings, this error appears at the top of the page:

My testing was done on our dev site, which apparently was not an exact mirror of our production site.

The only hiccup we experienced on the prod environment was that the mod may have wiped out the registration agreement that users must agree to before registering. The text is gone, but the user still has to click on "I accept the terms of the agreement". So they are basically agreeing to nothing. :P

It's not a big deal really. And we're not even sure if the TEA mod is what caused it. I wish I had more info for you but I have very limited access to our prod site. Getting the mod installed at all has been a ridiculously long process, simply because I have to keep lighting a fire under our admin's ass.

We only use the mod to grant forum access. TS access is handled manually since our community members play other games besides EVE. The Scheduled Tasks seem to be working as intended, though. Users input their API info and are granted appropriate access within a few minutes.

G'day Guys,

I am getting the following error:

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1
File: D:\sites\owen1brunker\recursiveerror.com\home\Sources\TEA.php

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Cheers

I clicked the "Run Full Member Check Now" which is under "CHECKS" on the Temars Eve Api menu.

Background History

I didn't do the original install of SMF. The CEO of a corp, who recently left our alliance, was the person who did the original hosting, installation and forum maintenance. He gave me a copy of the database and forums. The Temars version number was a bit weird I think. 1.3.0.175. The version number of SMF was 2.0.4, which I patched to SMF 2.0.5.

It was with this environment that I was getting errors. I don't know if the errors existed before I patched. The first error which was reported by Temars was a database version mismatch. From my research I couldn't identify a database change between SMF 2.0.4 and SMF 2.0.5, so I changed the version number in the database. This is when the current message started happening.

I have, since my post for help, uploaded a vanilla SMF 2.0.5 as per the SMF manual and then deleted all package mods. I then uploaded and installed Temars Eve API Version 1.3.1 R2.

In running the same option, "Run Full Member Check Now", I still get the same error message but on a different line number. The error is the same error within the same PHP function Settings_checks($scripturl) and it occurs when doing an SQL SELECT via a call to $this -> smcFunc['db_query'].

I can't fault the SQL statement. A similar SQL statement runs perfectly in the MySQL query tool. I say similar because I manually resolved the {db_prefix} macro in my test. It should resolve to ''. I suspect this is where the problem might be. The forums themselves are working so I cant see the null value used for db_prefix being an issue.

I hope this fills you in.

Thanks again.

OwenJ

Fresh install of both SMF2 and TEA. So far, everything seems to be going smoothly until I try to add a rule and get the following:



Everything else works fine, but, it seems to think that the server goes down while I'm trying to submit the rule. Everything else on the server functions just fine, and this only occurs when I'm trying to set a rule.

Browser is Chrome; Same error occurs with testing in IE.
Server is running Debian Linux x64, Apache2, PHP5

Any ideas?

i clear my smf_tea_cache but have this msg again. api is correct

[Tue Sep 24 19:51:06 2013] [error] [client 205.250.184.170] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'String could not be parsed as XML' in /home/www/forum/Sources/TEA.php:1981\nStack trace:\n#0 /home/www/forum/Sources/TEA.php(1981): SimpleXMLElement->__construct('')\n#1 /home/www/forum/Sources/TEA.php(1630): TEA->settings_rules('http://blackwat...')\n#2 /home/www/forum/Sources/TEA.php(3417): TEA->Settings('http://blackwat...')\n#3 /home/www/forum/Sources/Admin.php(519): ModifyTEASettings()\n#4 [internal function]: AdminMain()\n#5 /home/www/forum/index.php(151): call_user_func('AdminMain')\n#6 {main}\n thrown in /home/www/forum/Sources/TEA.php on line 1981, referer: http://blackwatchsyndicate.com/forum/index.php?action=admin;area=tea;sa=rules;save

That tells me WHAT the problem is, but, I have no idea how to fix it.

It also fails to accept my own API key.

try{
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xml);
}
catch(Exception $e)
{
var_dump($xml);
var_dump($e);
die;
}

curl_close($ch);

Return $data;

curl_close($ch);
var_dump($data);die;
Return $data;

All it returned was this:



That's even with looking at the page source.

And no, no other API related functions work.

An idea popped into my head. This server is freshly setup, I've never run anything else off of it. Is it possible that I missed a base pre-req? I can't think of anything that I missed... I got Apache2, PHP5, MySQL, curl, php5-mysql... I can't think of anything else that might be needed, but, did I possibly overlook something?

EDIT: when I try to add my own API key for checking, it gives me this error: [ERROR] Api must be of Type Character and show ALL toons :)

I've seen that before on here, so, I'll see if any of those fixes work for this.

EDIT2: Nope, no changes. I'll await your response.

I've checked and it appears to be installed. On the possibility that there was something wrong with it, I removed it and reinstalled it and the same problem is occuring.

Any other pre-reqs that might be missing?

Thanks. This worked flawlessly.

So yes, I can contact the server without issue.

A minor thing: On the modify profile > jabber tab page, the jabber account is not created until I go through the process of selecting an alt character > change profile > selected main character > add password > change profile.

Is this a problem you're aware of or do I just have a borked layout or something?

Thanks for replying so quickly.



That's exactly the tab page I am talking about.

Under the Profile menu item, select TEMAR's Eve Api
Go to the Jabber tab page

If I select my main char, enter a password and save it (by clicking change profile), the jabber account isn't created. No messages other than your profile is updated. I thought for a while my settings were bad or something until I tried selecting an alt char and saving, and then selecting my main again and saving again, then noticed the jabber account was created.. I deleted the account on jabber and tried again. Same thing. I tested it a few more times and same thing every time. I am not sure why that is exactly.

If you can give a hint about which file the jabber form is in perhaps I can go in and look at the code and see what the problem might be.

Also, do you know of any plugins available for SMF that support eve fittings and other in game browser functions? I had a search around and the only ones I could find seem to be abandoned. In my opinion this is the only area in which SMF doesn't surpass phpBB as a forum for Eve alliances.

Acutally, another question. Does the TS integration work if the TS server is NOT using a mysql db? I am connecting to the server fine as I am seeing all ts groups. Only rule is to add forum group to corresponding ts group and when clicking register I keep getting "[ERROR] Unknown Unknown method"

I'd posted this in error in the 1.2.1 forum topic so I'm just cross posting this question here as I'm using the 1.3.0 R179 version of TEA.

I'm having some trouble with the Skills rule set. I was trying to use them to assign a secondary group of Capital Pilots, but when i use something simple such as 'Amarr Carrier' with a skill level requirement of 4 it doesn't assign the group to anyone. I did have a Corp ID AND attached but was struggling with it working so lowered to just 1 skill to test.

Is there a particular syntax for inputting the skill names? How can I debug why it isn't matching? I've tried Skill ID's and the Names, nothing seems to work.

I should say i've managed to assign secondary groups using corp titles and roles successfully. Just can't seem to get the skills correct.

Edit - I've updated to 1.3.1 r4

Still unable to use the Skills correctly, getting the same results as above.

This is a heads up for Windows Servers.

If you have issues pulling the API (Empty chars) it can be your server SSL cert which has exspired. curl will not Work if this is the case.

Ya CA Cert

You need a selfsigned cert with the curl calls you are making, thats why i had so many issues with your version. You can turn it off in the calls (Dont have code in head) so after editing your code, you version worked fine.

http://www.devcha.com/2009/10/how-to-execute-curl-and-skip.html
http://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html

ok mate, first great work your doing here.

I got it to install by uninstalling the old one first.


it all seems to be working.


So how do i set it so it needs a full api key ?

Hey,

Getting errors on this Package.

Nothing seems to be working lol. Its not pulling any API's

I can ping the api server.

I have:

XAMPP on a Windows 2k8 server.
SMF 2.0.6
Temars EVE API 1.3.1 r4
Curl appears to be enabled in php.ini

I don't think it is pulling the API properly.

API Page

DB Error

Screwed Error

Alright, everything seems to working like a champ except for this one odd detail, when we have used go to their profile and try and use the eve avatar, it will pull up the right pic for whichever toon they select, but when they save it, we end up with just the broken pic image. this happens regardless of whatever size we set the avatar size to.

Thought? Something silly I am overlooking?

(Thanks for your time on this epic mod!)

I'm not sure if this have been covered in a previous thread or not, there was a little too much to read through. My corp has friends that are in NPC corps, the individuals are set light blue at the corporation, but are not being placed in the Blues group. Will TEA not work with individual character standings?

any chance to add mumble support to this mod in the future?

Ok, so players in NPC corps have to be manually added to a group. Fair enough.

New question. it seems that if someone botches up their API key and tries to register with it, then gets a error, and tries to register again with the corrected key they get an error that the character already exists and I have to clear them out of the table. Do I have something setup wrong?

ok...after doing some digging, what it looks like it's doing is not appending the size.jpg to the character ID it's pulling from the API mod. So when I inspect the avatar element, it looks like:

https://image.eveonline.com/Character/1088364566

instead of:

https://image.eveonline.com/Character/1088364566_128.jpg

If I fix the HTML manually on the page, it pulls the right pic down.

Any more thoughts on why this would be? I set the entire board to 777 while testing, so I don't think it's permission issue...and it's got the right path, just not adding in the missing section to the end (which I think would be done by the mod, since you can set the size of the avatars you want used in the Temar API settings...it's just not actually doing it).

Having a hard time getting Jabber integration to work. Can you help? Not sure what I'm missing.

I have everything plugged into the Jabber section and enabled it however I see 0 traffic in the MySQL logs being generated from the mod. If I try to register a user I just get unable to match any groups but still no log entries.

I'm sure I'm missing something dumb?

[quote=1Gordon Gekko1][quote=Magenta Flori]
It also seems that if I manually remove the corp list and standing files and re-run TEA_Cron.php I get an updated list and new files. I guess this is by design and I can just make a cron job around it.

Sweet, thanks for the great work. It is supposed to give any details when you run it? Most of them give nothing but a prompt. Tea_Cron.php gives that reset id to zero or whatever message?

Hi,

I have a problem with your plugin for SMF... It seems that temars don't synchronize the database for openfire and so don't create the users... Can you help me about that?

I would'nt ask for help if there were enough doc of course but since there is none....

Seems that is not the solution to my problem.
the groups are visible in SMF, the user service is correctly configured because we can create new user with the URL : for example :
hostname:port/plugins/userService/userservice?type=add&secret=passexample&username=testalamain&password=test&name=MonsieurTest&[email protected]&groups=Camarade


Am I missing something here?

the rules you mean in SMF? if it's that, yeah it's activated.

the allowed ip's are blank and in mode 'accept' so normally it will accept all the connections no?

how is transfered the request to userservice?

Just installed SMF2.0.6 and TEA 1.3.1 r4 and have had some issues.. I've worked through some, but, a couple I cannot get by without some help.

- SMF wouldn't accept the zip file of the mod via the upload built in.. I had to ftp it up, and then unzip it in the /Packages directory. This allowed it to install from inside SMF. I also needed to copy the TS3_Class/ dir by hand to /Sources

- Not sure what API to use for our Alliance in the main config of TEA.

- Base Admin account loses admin privs.. because it has no API. Probably by cron check. a reset php script fixes this temporarily.

- Users cannot register because of the "select a character" requirement, even with "Is a Valid Api required to Register? " set to disabled/no. if you enter a single character or false API, it will tell you in the error message, a proper one will tell you to select a character.

The API function -IS- working, just the fetch characters button is doing nothing. For the admin account, I tested adding an API without selecting a character, and saving it, then opening it again and was able to select a character without a problem.
...
Also changed the API server to: http://community.eveonline.com/support/api-key/ since the other links were https, and, double redirected to this URL. an https link may also be fine, but, I was reading about prople having trouble with curl and ssl. Testing curl by hand revealed the redirects to me, actually. The fetch button didn't work with any of the urls used, but the test on the admin account worked fine with this one.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Just an FYI:

I think CCP recently changed the "403 - Forbidden" messages to more specific error messages; I got php errors when trying to validate empty or invalid keyIDs and vcodes. I managed to fix some of them by changing the "403 - Forbidden" arguments to their specific counterparts in TEAC.php

Any way to make it not accept people with an incorrect access mask? I have seen it take an API, only show one char, say incorrect mask in SMF/Tea but still gives them access.

Hi there,

First off, awesome package I've managed to hook up SMF auth and openfire without too much trouble yesterday. I have one question though:

In my rules for forum groups I have added one main rule defining that if you are in corp u go to a certain group.

However this doesnt seem to work

Rules on additional groups DO work however.

This is the only rule i have set up in main groups :


ID 3 RULE IS => Corp: 883901493 (Imperial Collective) groupname AND (enable flag checked)

In my case, additional rules throw me in the director group no problem, but main stays 'not monitored'

Hope someone can assist.

Hi,

i have installed today the TEA v1.3.1 r4 now when i try to register an new user with the api i have some problems....

when i fill in the api and i use "Get Characters" nothing happen?!

any idea?!

Hi,

i work on smf 2.0.6 and i have no errors nothing.... and yes i have as well tryed a master api key but nothing happens when i get on "get characters" when i try to register without get character i get the message "A Valid API is Required to Register on this Forum" but i have tried a master api key as well ?!!?!

Windows and apachi....

and i geht this message now

API System Screwed - Can't Fetch Standings : bool(false) There is a problem fetching Standings : int(9999)

Would it be possible to allow users in a specific SMF usergroup to register TS and Jabber accounts?

Ideally I would like to give a specific group access to TS and Jabber, without the need for an API key. People that stopped playing Eve or friends from other games for example, that still would like to hang out on the same TS and Jabber servers.

They have an incorrect mask but it still matches them to a group because they have "enough" access via the API even though it is not the "correct" mask. Is there a way to force it to be the exact access mask or have their account removed with the dbcleanup? It is supposed to do this now?

Is there an easy way to just remove everyone with invalid apis?

Hiya,

Running SMF 2.0.6
Teamod 1.3.1 r5

I'm having two issues.

- It happens if I set a a rule "ISNT Corp" for our corporation at first rule positon, any members that have alts on the same account but in different corp (either NPC or not) will get matched to that rule and assigned the corresponding group.
In our case that will be guest access, but being corp member with at least 1 toon they should be granted member access.

- On the API mask check.
I found 2 members using an invalid mask, but with the minimal required fields.
I can see the red error message stating BOTH api id's when I check any of our members API after a full check.

[ERROR] Check your Access Mask - keyid = masked ;)

I have an issue. When a user registers for jabber via temars, it reads as though it was successful on the forum-side, and it populates the prefix_tea_jabber_users table, however, it doesn't actually create a user on the Openfire server.

When I use the user service link manually to try and create a user, it works perfectly, but via temars it's not actually creating the user, even though it 'thinks' it is....

any thoughts as to what could be causing this?

Also Temars is talking to the Openfire server just fine as the groups are available to map via rules....so I can't figure out what's going on...

Shin, thanks for the quick response. I do have group mappings set and there are users in them on the SMF side. I do have two members that I manually created on jabber as well via the user service link (directly into browser), and that worked fine.

The IP security is empty. I've tried it with the IP of the box that SMF is on (different than jabber) and tried it without an IP. Even with members in mapped groups on both ends, trying to authorize a new user on jabber gives me a "successful" message on the SMF side, but no member created within OpenFire....

Hi Shin,

Running SMF 2.0.6
Teamod 1.3.1 r5

I found eventhough I have "Is a Valid Api required to Register?" checked, users can register to our forum without any API filled.
Anyway I can fix this?

Are skill rules still broke?

I've tried to telnet to api.eveonline.com 443 and get no response -- i've disabled the windows firewall and still no joy; so I'm stumped.

Follow up: telnet api.eveonline.com 443 is successful (get a blinky cursor until anything is pressed then I get a connection lost message).

Error displayed at the top of the settings page where you enter the API key: API call error while fetching standings: Error Code = 221 for key id = 1976416 API call error while fetching standings: Error Code =

I am running r4 but change notes didn't say anything about rules with r5, should I try r5? Any gotcha I need to know before upgrading? What is the best way for upgrading, uninstalling and just installing the new?

ok so I upgraded...

getting a lot of these when I run a full member check


API call error while fetching roles: Error Code = 221 for key id = API call error while fetching roles: Error Code = 221 for key id =

Update:

All those errors were occurring on some, not all, accounts that invalid API's. Also the table would show the character name but no details on those accounts when running the member check. I simply removed all those API's and now the error does not occur anymore and they are given No API when the check is ran. So I guess its working, not sure what happened there.

Also skill rules are working now.

Not entering one at all. Just go to our forums to test (www.avalonproject.co.uk/forums).

UPDATE: I discovered that the smf_tea_cache table was not updating, even when removing and re-adding this users API. So I backed up my DB and truncated that table. Welp, that fixed it. Next time I put the key in and ran full member check it pulled new data from api.eveonline.com. So I guess the question is did I have DB corruption? Why was it pulling from this cache and not updating it? Should I do a cron job to wipe this table out daily? I also have noticed that the full member check was running super fast. Now it is back to running slow with about 10 per page or so. Instead of 100 per page.

K, how often when I run full member check should it be slow and actually check every API instead of using the cache? Been another hour or so and its still super fast and runs through a few hundred in a couple seconds.

What's the in-game character associated with the lead developer on this project now? According to the GitHub commits, "barneycg" seems to have the most development activity. I'd like to send an ISK donation to you in-game. Is that you, Shin Chogan?

I love this middleware app and want to support future development and maintenance updates. Thanks for your contributions to this project. For any other alliance IT guys, I highly suggest sending ISK to this man to encourage continued development on this. It brings massive value and one good turn deserves another.

With TS and Jabber on a separate server I'm starting to get somewhere but running into problems.

The TS script is giving me Undefined index errors for tea_charid, tea_userid and tea_api at lines 86, 87 and 88 in TEA_TS.php-- do I have something misconfigured somewhere?

Jabber integration is seeing the server, can't seem to create any users at this point, working on it still.

--Rax

We are having trouble getting the Director rule to work properly.
The additional group rule is set as follows:

(ID) 19
IS => Alliance: 99003478 (The Harlequin's)
IS => Role: Director
(Group) Director
AND

It would seem that even though both conditions are in the same rule, it is still looking at all characters on the API instead of just one, causing characters with Director roles in other corps/alliances to be counted.

Anything we're missing?

im having trouble with the rules section. people not in my alliance are able to sign up and see everything. people in my allliance are able to sign up and see onlly what i want them to see. i tried to set up a rule where neut/red/ no standing get put into a "spy" group where they cant see or do anything but it doesnt seem to be putting them into the group. any tips?

Hi all,

A very strange error has just started happening on my forums, the mod has been running successfully for months without any issues then since yesterday whenever I try to update someones tea profile setting i get a page not found error when I click the change profile button.

Also when trying to look at the settings page of the Tea mod I get the following error:

MySQL server has gone away
File: /Sources/TEA.php
Line: 1413

I have run a database tables check and repair through cpanel, checked the error logs of the forum (nothing found), uninstalled deleted the files and reinstalled the mod and contacted my host to ask them if anything has changed.

Now I am at a bit of a loss, as this has just started happening recently I just wondered if anyone had any ideas what I could do.

Thanks a lot for any tips help..... its a great mod.

Regards,

Nori.

I tried clearing out the smf_tea_cache table also contacted my host to restore the database and website, tried everthing I can think of. Contacted my hosting company again they said that something with the query is taking ages to execute at index.php?action=admin;area=tea;sa=settings; but just dont know what else I can try

The only pages where I get the error are the settings page and running the actual checks :/ all the other pages load up fine. Could there be something in one of tables which the settings page calls up which is corrupt? or any weird permissions problem with the files.. I think all the files that should be 0644 are.

When I try to run the checks I get the following messages:

API System Screwed : bool(false)

and

MySQL server has gone away
File: /Sources/TEA.php
Line: 2408

Hi Shin,

First, thanks a million for picking up this project :) Big kudos :)

Secondly, what's the best way to upgrade from 1.3.0 r179?
The 1.3.1 r5 package info do not carry the upgrade path.
Is the one from 1.3.0 applicable or does it need to be customized?

The one which was included in r179 looks like this (had to sanitize xml tags into || and |- respectively)

I'm experiencing some issues as of today. If a user tries to register, or an existing user tries to update/add API to profile, or the cron runs (whichever happens first), the characters are coming back without corp tags and therefore not qualifying for any groups. Users are being removed from their groups as well....

For instance, The users are listed in the back end like: [] Your_Name (closed brackets where the corp tag would be)

Any ideas?

* Edit: Been working fine for months and nothing has changed/been updated recently. The only thing that's changed is the new eve patch but I can't imagine that would have anything to do with it...

* Edit #2: Confirmed the same problem happening on another site. Exact same issue.

By "they" you mean the actual TEA developer I hope? If not, you are an idiot and please stfu, and here is why.

Just playing with the new version, and for some reason, the mod is allowing people to register without putting any api details in, yet the mod is set to require api details for registration.

It doesn't throw up any errors, you just skip the api details and hit register, and an account is made.

Any ideas, Shin?

Thanks,

Demi

How did you manage this? Because I seem to have the same problem.

Currently when people try to register on our forums the "TEA Required Options" fields show twice on the registration page and when someone clicks Get Characters they get the error "API call error while fetching toons: Error Code = 106 for key id = undefined "

Any suggestions?

I got my dirty install mostly cleaned up, but the user's profile page still has some extra fields and I'm just not sure what needs to be removed to clean it up. The Status, Main Matched Rules, Characters, ID from API page, and Verification Code from API Page fields are all duplicated once. I'm just trying to figure out how to clean that up.

Screen shot ----> http://i.imgur.com/0nHoabh.png

Is there a debug mode to run this code in? As I said, I'm experiencing a problem described here https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=3969052#post3969052 and I want to be able to debug it by putting some printing statements in the called functions and seeing their results.

So I have found the problem with the script.

Apparently, TEA decides to call the update_user function even when the Openfire user does not exist, resulting in UserNotFoundException, and the Openfire user not being created.

I think this is how the process played out:
I tried to register a new user
The user was written into the tea_jabber_users table, but for some reason was not written into Openfire.
From now on, every subsequent call to this user will call the update_user function (and get a silent exception). This is clearly a bug.

Is there a way to read back the result of accessing the Openfire URL? In case of such exception, an add_user call should be made

Thank you for the clarification. I guess I didn't remember that being there.


Also, I thought everything was working but I'm getting a PHP Parse error on the last line of ScheduledTasks.php, it's causing my mail queue to hang. I ran into this a week or so ago, it it was because there were duplicates of the TEA cron functions. I just deleted the dupes before and all seemed to be well after that. I tried to just remove the TEA cron functions this time to test if the error went away, but I still get it. During the install is another change made elsewhere in the ScheduledTasks.php. My Apache logs aren't giving much info.

Uploaded an image of what I'm talking about. This is what comes up when I'm trying to install the mod:

http://i.imgur.com/kQP5Vig.png

It is essentially a matter of your host, for whatever reason the files couldn't be accessed by the package manager once unpacked. Usually that means there's some kind of permission issue with the files.

Any ideas on this one Shin? I've tried removing the mod and reinstalling and it doesn't seem to fix the trouble. Everything else appears to be working right so I'm stuck at what's causing the error.

--Rax

This problem is still ongoing. When I hijack the get_site() function to load my own Openfire access string, I get literally nothing back - an empty string. Not an "ok" or rejected response like what I get when I load this URL on my own browser, just empty. Openfire itself shows nothing in its logs. Running packet trace is not possible cause I'm running this on a virtual server, so the physical hardware is shared.

Print debug lines to see what exactly is going on. Like printing the output of curl_exec. And no, it doesn't take 60 seconds, it is immediate.

Next development. If, within get_site() I call a function to create an html page which redirects me to the Openfire URL, then I curl_exec THAT page, adding a user works. It has the unfortunate site-effect of a. leaving me on the redirected page, thus showing my passcode to the world and b. requiring that Openfire User Service IPs be open to the world. :(

Yup, I don't intend to leave it that way :)

The URL is right. If I copy it to my browser, it adds a user, but for some reason, it doesn't get sent to Openfire from TEA directly

There is a value for tea_nextpull: 1395427119.

When I execute TEA_cron.php I get:

API System Screwed :
bool(false)


Thanks,

I have an issue with the API system.

Info:
Server running ubuntu 12.04 on a digital ocean server.
The mod seems to have successfully installed.
Entering a corp api has not updated the system (says last updated never)
Changing the API profile of a user returns "[ERROR] API is returning invalid XML"
When trying to register with api this error message is displayed "API System Screwed - Can't fetch Toons"

Trying to run a full member check produces this error:
"You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1
File: /var/www/Sources/TEA.php
Line: 2492"

Any ideas with what is causing this? Can't seem to find a solution.

Hi there!

Small issue after switching jabber host. We were earlier on running jabber och the same server but we needed to change host for the jabber service. Now we're running it externally and reconfigured the jabber settings in TEA to accommodate this.

The problem we are having now is that no Jabber groups are visible on the Jabber setup page.
Users are able to change their passwords and connect, new users are able to create their logins etc ... there's just no jabber groups visible so we can start rebuilding our rules.
User Service calls seems to be working just fine from the web host. If i enter some commands via lynx on the forum host, commands are accepted on the new jabber host just fine, if formatted correctly ofc.

I do have a (old?) table in the forum database named "forum_tea_jabber_groups" with the groups that existed before the jabber server move, is that one used? Can it conflict somehow?

I'm not sure on where to start looking so any pointers, hints or shoutouts would be appreciated :)

Is there already a fix known for people that have to register with API? (for a new account)
Or did i miss that post?

Thank you

People should register with api before the account could be activated.
Mandatory API key for registering.

Same like:
- Account name
- Password
- Mail

Hi. How should I proceed if I wanted to enable Jabber by default?

Currently every member of my SMF forum has to enable his openfire account manually in his profile. But I want to force usage of Jabber, and therefore I want activation by default.

Any ideas?

Activation of Jabber accounts by default should still be possible, though. The correct way to do this would be to generate a password for the SMF user and display it in his profile.

That would mitigate obove mentioned security problem at the same time, as it prevents people from using a GÇPrealGÇ£ password (which might be used in other, more critical contexts as well).

No. My suggestion is to use a randomly generated password for the Jabber account. This password will be not secure at all, as it will be stored in the openfire database. As it is a random password, and as the SMF user wonGÇÿt be able to change it, it will never be identical with the REAL (SMF) password of the user. Thereby we are creating a second sphere of less (or NO) security, without compromising the real password of the user.

Of course there should be a hint text explaining, that this Jabber password is just a token and therefore not a password in a strict sense (we should avoid to produce the false assumption of a safe Jabber password, as itGÇÿs inherently unsafe).

Right now I have installed converse.js in my SMF. This is a Javascript XMPP Client. Everybody who logs into our forum AND has at some time in the past activated his Jabber account is automatically connected to the Jabber server and can send and receive Jabber messages while surfing on any page of our forum. The connection is established silently in the background, so no user interaction is needed at all.

All users who donGÇÿt want to install a separate Jabber client donGÇÿt need the Jabber password ever. All other users will have to copy and paste their Jabber password (or token) into their respective Jabber application (Pidgin, or whatever).

The thing is that the current implementation of TEA with Jabber is a (potential) breach of security. This is independent of whatever IGÇÿm saying or doing. Of course there may be better solutions than TEA with Jabber, but what speaks against making TEA better and more secure?

So I am running into a few things here that I vaguely remember reading about but not in exact context. I managed to connect to my server for about 20 minutes then it started kicking me out and refusing connection. As I looked at the logs, I saw the information linked below. Now this threw me as I was connected and online, so why would it work for 20 minutes and then not?

Got a small question about the TEAC code:

So if the $type parameter is standings, this function does not use the cache. Why is that? Does this mean you do not need to cache calls to the /corp/ContactList.xml.aspx API? Call I call ContactList.xml.asp as often as I like?

Thanks!

Hello.

I updated to r6 and now I canGÇÿt switch my preferred character anymore. Any ideas?

Right I have had this issue for a while now and getting fed up with it. Basically TEA is caching the results of the API and not clearing the cache. So if I empty the smf_tea_cache table in the DB it will go through and re pull everyones api key and deal with permissions correctly, kicking people who left corp etc... However once its done this once for everyone it then won't refresh their API key again. Meaning permissions aren't being updated should someone leave or whatever.

If someone new joins it gets their info fine (as its not cached in the DB). I have no idea why this is happened, it used to work, like a few months ago now, but did used to work.

The TEA_CRON outputs 'Reset lastid to Zero' Any ideas please?

Any support for Mumble coming soon? I'd gladly send some ISK your way to get Mumble support - TS licensing is way too stupid.

Hi,
I am having an issue where even if the jabber group is not set to monitor and remove, members are still removed from it.

Also when ticking the box to monitor and remove it becomes stuck and your unable to untick it again without deleting the group on the jabber server and recreating it.

Any ideas? It seems a bit broken to me.

Please could someone confirm a few things.

Ok so if I wanted to add specific people to a group on the jabber server then would I have to add them to an additional group on the forum and then set a rule for this, rather than adding them to a group through openfire itself?

So as I now understand it the forum task for updating jabber groups basically just removes the user from all groups and then adds them to the ones they are supposed to be in?

Now the monitor and remove tickbox thing I am slightly confused about, can someone expain to me its purpose.

Thanks in advance

Is there a way to force an update of the alliance corp list? When corps leave the alliance it does not automatically remove them from groups as it says their corp is still in the alliance, its been 2 days and its still not updated.

Edit:
Seems to update every 2 days.

whether it is possible to use mumble instead of team speak?
