    [Blog] blog errors and vBulletin 4

    Hi

    I work for Alzheimer's Society and we have an online forum running vBulletin.

    We are looking to upgrade to vBulletin 4 in October and are therefore testing things out on a password protected site running version 4.0.5

    Today I have been playing around with blogs and have noticed a HTTP - 500 Internal Server error on the main blog home page http://www.testsuite.org.uk/blog.php

    If I am not logged in the page appears fine

    When I am logged in (as a registered user) in though I get this message

    When I am logged in (as a moderator or an administrator) I get this php error

    When I contacted our host globalgold.co.uk (who I can recommend to anyone who wants a vBulletin installation hosted) I got this reply.
    It looks like an issue with the code in the following file:

    Fatal error: is_member_of_blog(): $bloginfo['permissions'] not defined. in [path]/includes/blog_functions_shared.php on line 275

    I’d recommend contacting Vbulletin support for them to investigate.

    If there are any server side settings that they recommend please let me know.
    Have others had the same problems, is it a known bug (I can't see it reported before) and is there a fix

    hi,

    yes it's an issue with that code but did you modified it or have any plugins / hacks running ? in that case open "/includes/config.php" and add after "<?php"

    PHP Code:
    define('DISABLE_HOOKS',true); 
    save & upload and try again if the error is gone it's some plugin/ hack causing the error

      You won't be able to test the blog if you disable hooks using the method above.

      Please post the text of the error in your second attachment as a reply to this post so it can actually be read.

        I tried to do that and for some reason it just timed out so I then tried including as a notepad attachment and got this message

        vbblogbug.txt: Your file of 308.0 KB bytes exceeds the forum's limit of 100.0 KB for this filetype.

        Any ideas of how to get this error message to you so I can get this resolved.

                I disabled all my plugins and addons and nothing and still have the blog error when I enable it. I looked into this topic because I am having the same issue.

                trigger_error('is_member_of_blog(): $bloginfo[\'permissions\'] not defined.', E_USER_ERROR);
                that is line 275

                what does it mean?

                What do I have to change?

                    Looks like you've deleted users, but not their blogs.

                    In the AdminCP > vBulletin Blog > Blog Entries

                    View all blog entries for a given date, if you cant find any there, you can try opening a support ticket so we can have a look at your mysql database directly and trying to fix the issue.

                      I have exactly the same problem.

                      I deleted an user with spam blog post but forgot to delete his blog post. So I go to AdminCP > vBulletin Blog > Blog Entries and view all entries and I delete the one with no username. It solved my problems.

                      Thank You Zachery.
