unexpected $ in mainfile php (accessing forums admin)

Hangin' Around Joined: May 12, 2005 Posts: 37

Using a 7.6 that is patched, and NukeSentinel_710_221.

I've followed the instructions and also applied the solutions on the two most recent posts related to missing forums pages. Finnally, this error resulted. It said there is an unexpected $ in line 1185.

The line on 1185 is :

Code:

            $body = ""._HELLO." $cookie[1]:\n\n"._SUBSCRIPTIONAT." $sitename "._HASEXPIRED."\n$renew\n\n"._HOPESERVED."\n\n$sitename

Instead of posting the entire long file here, I will post the section before and after. If more is needed, I can post that too...

Code:

cookiedecode($user);


      $sql = "SELECT * FROM ".$prefix."_subscriptions WHERE userid='$cookie[0]'";


      $result = $db->sql_query($sql);


      $numrows = $db->sql_numrows($result);


      $row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result);


      if ($numrows == 0) {


         return 0;


      } elseif ($numrows != 0) {


         $time = time();


         if ($row[subscription_expire] <= $time) {


            $db->sql_query("DELETE FROM ".$prefix."_subscriptions WHERE userid='$cookie[0]' AND id='$row[id]'");


            $from = "$sitename <$adminmail>";


            $subject = "$sitename: "._SUBEXPIRED."";


            $body = ""._HELLO." $cookie[1]:\n\n"._SUBSCRIPTIONAT." $sitename "._HASEXPIRED."\n$renew\n\n"._HOPESERVED."\n\n$sitename "._TEAM."\n$nukeurl";


            $row = $db->sql_fetchrow($db->sql_query("SELECT user_email FROM ".$user_prefix."_users WHERE id='$cookie[0]' AND nickname='$cookie[1]' AND password='$cookie[2]'"));


            mail($row[user_email], $subject, $body, "From: $from\nX-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion());


         }


         return 1;


      }


   } else {


      return 0;   


   }


}





function stripos_clone($haystack, $needle, $offset=0) {

I don't understand this part of the coding at all. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for your time.

Just a shot in the dark. Try changing

Code:

$body = ""._HELLO." $cookie[1]:\n\n"._SUBSCRIPTIONAT." $sitename "._HASEXPIRED."\n$renew\n\n"._HOPESERVED."\n\n$sitename

to

Code:

$body = ""._HELLO." ".$cookie[1].":\n\n"._SUBSCRIPTIONAT." $sitename "._HASEXPIRED."\n$renew\n\n"._HOPESERVED."\n\n$sitename

Thanks Raven. Didn't work though. Sad

It's just the blank grey page...

But no error?

None. Just the grey page.

I've reinstalled both my nuke and sentinel 4 times since I posted the other day. I've followed the instructions each time (unless I'm missing the same thing each time) and the same results.

I've checked the files (pagestart, ect) for the needed changes and also those listed in the thread "Sentinel for PHPNuke 7.6 with 2.8 patch forum admin error".

I'm completely lost as to what to do.

I've attempted to get a copy of the error log, but my webanalyzer says that it only generates them once a day and to please check back later...

thanks,

Then it did work. It got rid of the unexpected $ error. So now we're left with this new, blank page error. Correct?

Yes, that is correct.
