I upgraded one forum from FUDForum 2.6.11 to FUDForum 2.6.12 and noticed that when users and admins post messages, their posting IP address shows up as 0.0.0.0 on their posts instead of showing their real IP address.

Seems to work fine on this forum, and the code handling the IPs did not change either.

Weird, indeed. Before the upgrade, the FUDForum 2.6.11 install had no issues with displaying the proper posting IP when a user posted. After the upgrade, it shows nothing but 0.0.0.0. Makes no sense to me.

I also looked in the database of this forum with phpmyadmin and the "fud26_msg" table appears to have an "ip_addr" column with "0.0.0.0" on each new post in FUDForum 2.6.12.

Incase you need info about what the hoster is using, the hoster has php 4.3.10 and mysql 4.0.22 and is using linux.

Is the $_SERVER super-global available on your server?

If it is not modify the .htaccess inside the forum's web directory to say:

php_value variables_order GPCS

<?php
print_r($_SERVER);
?>


Outputs:
Array ( )

Only when I place that in "test.php" inside FUDForum's folder.

Outside of the folder, it outputs more than that.

So this is a .htaccess issue?

Thanks!
That fixed it!

The old .htaccess in FUDForum's directory had:
php_value output_buffering 64000
php_value variables_order GPC
php_flag implicit_flush 0
php_flag register_globals 0
php_flag register_argc_argv 0
php_flag magic_quotes_gpc 0
php_flag session.use_trans_sid 0
php_flag expose_php 0


It was missing the "S" at the end of: php_value variables_order GPC

I added the "S" and now it gets the posting IP just fine. Kind of weird how that fell off during the upgrade.

The upgrade script that this happened with was:
http://static.fudforum.org/FUDforum_upgrade_zl_2-6-12.tar.bz2

From my backup, FUDForum 2.6.11 didn't even have a .htaccess file before. So, I am assuming this .htaccess was newly added by the upgrade script for the upgrade to 2.6.12.

When I looked at the upgrade script at: http://static.fudforum.org/FUDforum_upgrade_2-6-12.tar.bz2 which isn't using zlib, line 72576 has:
php_value variables_order GPC


So that is where it is missing the "S" at.
