A few problems after update to 1.6.3 [solved]

[TeXnik]

I had my site updated to to version 1.6.3.

First I got some problems with database coding, the sigs "ä,ö,ü" etc. where replaced with "�".  I went through and corrected them manually.

The next what happened, was that new pages did not show in the browser, they appeared in the menu but clicking showed only a blank page (Opera 10 showed "content length=0). In the admin panel I can see the pages per preview.
I edited the pages several times and then suddenly they could be viewed.
This problem occured also in the previus installation 1.5.4 and was reason for the upgrade.

I tried to to create new pages first in the default language and the translation in other languages, it seemed that this worked, the pages could be viewed.

When add the last page and viewed the page, all content showed, but no styling. No header, no footer, no logho etc.

Today I wanted to install a new installation from the scratch and downloded cmsms-mle-1.6.3-full.tar.gz.
I decompressed to a local webserver and started the installation.
This showed up immidiately:

Code: Select all

Warning: Parameter 1 to cms_module_Lang() expected to be a reference, value given in C:\xampp\htdocs\MLE\lib\classes\class.module.inc.php on line 2158

Now I'm giving up for some time.

Have you read 1.6 NOTE?
There is a change in config.php and is necessary true for MLE (was true in prev versons):
$config['set_names'] = true;

Have you checked your server logs. Perhaps you have problem with mod_security

I do not have access to the server logs. I will ask the provider if there are known problems.

What was strange, was that sometimes some of the pages could be seen later. I had to create the page in default language first and the doing the translation.
Pages created not in the default language never appeared on the screen. Calling the links did not create an error. After some time the download was finished and the browser screen kept blank.

I had this problem for a short time with another domain. There is MLE 1.5.4 running. But for some time thgis error does not occur anymore on the page with the old version.

When I tried to figure out what the problem is I was not successful, but I think it might be mainly a database problem.

I added solved. In fact my problem is not really solved, but found a workaround.

To get my pages displayed, I must copy an existing page which was displayed without a problem.
And editing and put new content in

have you look in server logs (and look with active debug in config.php)?
