boot.php error
Hello,
I get this error when I go into my oekaki page
Deprecated: Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() is deprecated in /home/humbug/public_html/oekaki/boot.php on line 150
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/humbug/public_html/oekaki/boot.php:150) in /home/humbug/public_html/oekaki/boot.php on line 41
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/humbug/public_html/oekaki/boot.php:150) in /home/humbug/public_html/oekaki/boot.php on line 44
I've already tried to reupload the boot.php file but it's still the same. Also have already used the patch to update 1.4.2 to 1.4.3
Help~

Re: boot.php error
Wow, the server admins must have turned off that function entirely. Here, I've made a small patch for this: 1.4.3 to 1.4.3x
I guess PHP 6 is going to enforce this, too, so I've hotfixed the main 1.4.3 download. 1.5.0 should be fully PHP 6 compliant, though it still needs more testing.

Re: boot.php error
Hello
I've uploaded the patch with the boot.php and common.php but still get the same message 
I've contacted the admin, and they've replied it's a bug in the code :B
I also can't edit banners. I get this message
resource/banner.php is locked! View Readme.txt for help.
And when I click "Draw!", I get
Deprecated: Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() is deprecated in /home/humbug/public_html/oekaki/boot.php on line 151
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/humbug/public_html/oekaki/boot.php:151) in /home/humbug/public_html/oekaki/common.php on line 243
Hope this will help find the bug

Re: boot.php error

Yeah, a bug in PHP. Hell, sometimes the language can't even properly report if it's running on Linux or Windows.
Since testing if the function is deprecated doesn't work, and testing for magic quotes doesn't work in PHP 6, I think I'll just have to remove the code entirely and require the use of at least PHP 5. I'm tired of constantly having to check which version of PHP is being used.
I've updated the 1.4.3 to 1.4.3x patch.
resource/banner.php is locked! View Readme.txt for help.
Using an FTP client, you will have to enable write permissions for that file. Normally the board does this automatically, but some servers prevent this from happening. I'd recommend setting the resource folder to "775" and all the files within the resource folder to "664".

Re: boot.php error
Hello Waccoon
I uploaded the latest patch you made, no more error's on the top page of the oekaki! Thanks
For the banner.php is locked error, I set the files in the resource folder to 664 but it's still locked. So I set it to 666 and it works now.
When I click on "Draw!", it says this:
Pictures folder is locked! View Readme.txt for help.
Use your browser button to go back.
So what I did was change these folders permission to 777
- picture, resources, templates
The readme.html mentions that the people on the server can access the files via a system shell so I'm kind of nervous about that. So any ideas? Should I keep the permissions 777 and 666?

Re: boot.php error

Short answer: yes.
If you have to use 777 and 666 to get things to work, that means the server uses a special security policy that is bound to your account and not the system shell. That would explain some of the other weirdness going on.
