[SOLVED] "Attempt to use ADODB from outside of CMS" after Update to 1.1.4.1

Hi,
today I made 3 Updates:
1.1 to 1.1.2
1.1.2 to 1.1.3.1
1.1.3.1 to 1.1.4.1
After the last update I now get the message "Attempt to use ADODB from outside of CMS" when I try to open the site:
www.easy-breeze.de
The site is gone and admin functionality, too. I read about the problem, but thought it was fixed with 1.1.4.1.
So, what's to do now? Anyone who can help?
Thanks in advance.
Christian

OK, thanks!
I deleted the "Attempt to use ADODB from outside of CMS" line in adodb.inc.php and now it works again. Could I run the version without that that line without problems?

Hmm, I'm wondering ... normally this line was added to prevent cross site scripting.

Hi!
When I put the line back in the site is off again and the message "Attempt to use ADODB..." back.
Should I run the site without the line? Would an update to 1.2 be helpful?

There is an issue with the diff-files to 1.2. They are already dumped. For now the way to upgrade is to use the full package.....

OK, and after uploading 1.2 do I have to run update.php or install.php?

upgrade.php, there is no install.php
The installer is automatically kicked if an install-dir exists an NO or an EMPTY config.php is available. That is not the case in an upgrade, so no installer will start.

Hallo Ronny,
fine, now I see. I think probaply it's best to upgrade to 1.2. But after all the problems tonight I'm a bit afraid of it.
Ronny, thanks for your quick and good help! That's great.

Well I hope taking out that line won't make my site vulnerable as I upgraded from 1.1.1 to 1.2, using the full install not diff. files, and had to take it out to get it working...

yes it will, adodb lite has a problem with script injectation through eval...
and as there is no updated adodb available we patched it so that it can only be called from cmsms...

I made an upgrade to 1.2 and there is no problem anymore.
