Hi,
I apologise in advance.
Heres the story, we have two coppermin galleries that are running old versions. 1.4. something.
They have not been upgraded due to laziness (and the fact that account registering was disabled so it was thought the security risks were low.)
Today our server was upgraded from PHP4 to PHP5
Now on the top of the front page this message appears;
Notice: Undefined offset: 8192 in /home/lobey/public_html/include/debugger.inc.php on line 112
I have already searched that on the forum and have seen that upgrading will most probably fix this.
So I have started learning how to upgrade.
My first issue is this. I cant log in to the admin anymore.
The log in box displays this message;
Warning your browser does not accept script's cookies
and the 'captcha' letters dont appear.. there is a broken image symbol where the captcha letters should be.
THe reason its a problem for me that I cant log in, is that on the upgrading instructions it says this;
Plugins made for cpg1.4.x usually can no longer be run on cpg1.5.x, so you'll need to turn them off while you're still running cpg1.4.x (before you start upgrading).
I can log in to check if I have plugs ins.. or to turn them off. I imagine the captcha script was a plug in itself.. I dont think there are any others, but I'm not sure.
Is there a way of checking for plug-ins without logging in to admin? via ftp? How should I progress ? Is the captcha script a plug-in? What happens if I upgrade without turning off plug-ins..
Thanks.
