Upgrade to 1.1.3 - Error appearing
Have upgraded to 1.1.3 but empty forums are receiving the following error:

Quote:
Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at /usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/taboan.balita.org/cgi-bin/admin/GForum/Forum.pm line 364.

What should I look for ...

I had someone else run into this problem as well. It happens only when viewing an empty forum in expanded mode. If you replace the admin/GForum/Forum.pm file with the attached copy it should fix the problem.

Removing stale references to Ancestor table...

Hopefully everything is now dandy!


NOTE: maybe the installer should check instead of Unarchiving all files. hmmm ... but then again ... if somebody changed anything it would only know whats there rather than "whats in there". having a diff function might be nice though. OH well ....
