safemode patch compatible with Mambo 4.5 Stable-1.0.7 ?

pe7er · 26.05.2004, 14:19

I have problems with uploading templates & components because Safe Mode = On (and I cannot configure the server to Safemode = Off)

Therefore I downloaded the safemode patch v1.3.4 from mamboportal.com. The readme file states "The patch is compatible with Mambo v.4.5.091 thru v.4.5.103 as far as I can tell thru testing so far."

Can anyone confirm if the "Mambo 4.5 Safemode Patch v1.3.4" is compatible with Mambo version 4.5 Stable-1.0.7 [Sinatra] ?

Thanks!

I backed up the original mambo files before installing the safepatch.
So far component_installer seems to work ok.

I am working with 1.07 on a server with safemode off. Uploaded the safemode patch files. Uploading components working fine now. But when deleting components I get the safe mode error again:

The uploaded files have ' apache' as owner. So it makes sense that user xxx on this server is not allowed to delete these files when safe mode is off. But I thought the patch should take care of this.

Any help appreciated

@pe7er

I have used the safemode patch with 1.0.7 and it seemed to work fine.

@rvanderh

If safemode = OFF you should not need the safemode patch. I have no idea what applying it might do to your installation. If you were having problems uploading files prior to installing the patch, perhaps your permissions were not properly set for the components and modules directories.
