== I have a paid license but my site still shows !BoonEx Ads. What is going on here? ==
1) First of all, this can happen if you acquired the license but didn't register your site. Registration process is manual and here you can find out how you can do it:
* Log into Dolphin Admin Dashboard.
* If you did not register Dolphin previously, for example with a free license, then you will see notification asking you to register it. Just put the license code in there and press "Register".
* If you already registered Dolphin with a different license (free or paid), you can change it by navigating to '''Settings -> Advanced Settings''' and specifying the new license code in the field '''Dolphin License Code'''.
2) In versions older than '''6.1.5''' this problem may happen even if you have taken all the steps above. This may happen when your site loses connection with boonex.com. Unfortunately, there's no way to avoid it in the version 6.1.4 or older but you can easily fix it by logging in '''Dolphin Admin Dashboard''' and logging out thus letting your license to be checked again.
----
== My site shows the message "You have manually removed !BoonEx footers..." and doesn't work ==
You must have installed a template which doesn't follow BoonEx requirement to show BoonEx footers or you have manually removed them.
To restore the footers, you need to open the file '''templates/tmpl_TMPL/_footer.html''' and insert this line
{{{
__boonex_footers__
}}}
before the inclusion of the base footer:
{{{
__includebase _footer.html__
}}}
''TMPL stands for the name of your template''
----
== I can't remember my Admin login and/or password. How can I restore or change it? ==
You should empty the Admins table and create a new admin record there.
The following script will allow you to do that. Place the script in the main directory of your Dolphin site, name it so its name would end with .php and run it in your browser, for example http://yoursite/admin_restore.php:
{{{
Success";
?>
}}}
where '''ADMIN_NAME''' and '''ADMIN_PASSWORD''' should be replaced with their real values.
----
== I see this error on some of my site's pages: ''Call to undefined function: mb_ereg_replace() in /path_to_dolphin/inc/utils.inc.php on line 120'' ==
This error and similar errors (yielding about functions starting with '''mb_''') refer to '''mbstring''' extension being absent from your PHP compilation. You should either re-compile it with '''--with-mbstring''' directive (under Linux) or uncomment '''extension=php_mbstring.dll''' in '''php.ini''' (under Windows). Then you should restart Apache web server.
----
== When I try to open a Navigation Menu link or somebody's profile, I get this page: ''Not Found'' ==
The problem is that your Apache server is not compiled with '''mod_rewrite''' module or you don't have rewrite instructions in your Dolphin's root .htaccess file. These instructions should be as follows:
{{{
"; $s = realpath("ray/modules/global/app/ffmpeg.exe"); echo `$s -version 2>&1`; }}} '''Output analysis:''' ''safe_mode ='' if this variable has non-empty value then ffmpeg will not be able to execute; in this case advise with your hosting about disabling safe mode. ''disabled_functions ='' if this variable contains '''exec''' then this function is forbidden by hosting and thus your script won't be able to run ffmpeg. ''max_execution_time, max_input_time ='' it's usually set to 30 seconds; you should increase its value several times. ''post_max_size ='' the size of POST data that PHP can handle; it's usually set at 2M; you should increase its value up to 8M or more. ''upload_max_filesize ='' the size limit of uploaded files; it's usually set at 2M; you should increase its value up to 8M or more. ''ffmpeg output:'' - this command will result in a message like this: {{{ FFmpeg version SVN-r9115, Copyright (c) 2000-2007 Fabrice Bellard, et al. configuration: --enable-libmp3lame --enable-xvid --enable-x264 --enable-gpl --enable-libvorbis --enable-libogg --enable-libtheora --enable-liba52 --enable-libamr-nb --enable-libamr-wb --enable-libfaad --enable-libfaac --enable-pthreads --disable-shared --enable-static libavutil version: 49.4.0 libavcodec version: 51.40.4 libavformat version: 51.12.1 built on Aug 14 2007 18:26:46, gcc: 3.4.5 (Gentoo 3.4.5, ssp-3.4.5-1.0, pie-8.7.9) ffmpeg SVN-r9115 libavutil 3212288 libavcodec 3352580 libavformat 3345409 }}} If you didn't see anything like this your hosting doesn't allow your web script to run '''exe''' files (this can be the result of safe_mode and disabled_functions values, see above). == Possible ways to fix this problem: == * '''safe_mode''' and '''disabled_functions''' issues can be resolved only by hosting provider. * Make sure you have set appropriate PHP settings for uploading media files. a) If PHP on your server is running in CGI mode, you need to create a '''php.ini''' file with the following contents: {{{ upload_max_filesize=300M post_max_size=300M max_input_time=3000 max_execution_time=3000 memory_limit=128M }}} Then copy this file to the ray/modules/movie/files subfolder b) If PHP on your server is running as Apache module, place this code in the '''.htaccess''' file which resides in the main Dolphin directory: {{{ php_value upload_max_filesize 300M php_value post_max_size 300M php_value max_input_time 3000 php_value max_execution_time 3000 php_value memory_limit 128M }}} * You can also change some MySQL settings to prevent connection timeouts when uploading big files: Open the file '''ray/modules/global/inc/db.inc.php''' and insert the following commands {{{ mysql_query ("SET @@local.wait_timeout=9000;"); mysql_query ("SET @@wait_timeout=9000;"); mysql_query ("SET @@local.interactive_timeout=9000;"); mysql_query ("SET @@interactive_timeout=9000;"); mysql_query ("SET @@local.connect_timeout=9000;"); mysql_query ("SET @@connect_timeout=9000;"); }}} after the line {{{ @mysql_select_db($this->sDb, $this->rLink); }}} ---- == My widgets result in "Invalid parameters" error and my Ray Base results in "Not Installed" == * This problem is mostly caused by unsuccessful integration of Ray widgets.[[BR]] In this case refer to [http://www.boonex.com/trac/ray/wiki/RayIntegration Ray Integration Manual]. * Referring to Dolphin, it can be caused by efforts to replace the '''ray''' folder with that from the Ray package and install it which is obviously not needed because Ray is already integrated into Dolphin.[[BR]] Here are the steps of fixing it in this case:[[BR]][[BR]] * Backup the media files if they already have been uploaded by your members. They reside in the folders '''ray/modules/WIDGET_NAME/files''', where '''WIDGET_NAME''' stands for the name of the widget ('''chat''', '''im''', etc.)[[BR]][[BR]] * Replace the whole '''ray''' folder with that from your original Dolphin package (for example Dolphin 6.1.4 [http://get.boonex.com/Dolphin-v.6.1-Free Free] or [http://get.boonex.com/Dolphin-v.6.1-AdFree AdFree])[[BR]][[BR]] * Set the following permissions using an FTP or SSH client {{{ chmod 777 ./ray/modules/board/files ./ray/modules/chat/files ./ray/modules/im/files ./ray/modules/movie/files ./ray/modules/mp3/files ./ray/modules/music/files ./ray/modules/global/app/ffmpeg.exe chmod 666 ./ray/modules/board/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/board/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/board/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/board/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/chat/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/chat/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/chat/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/chat/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/desktop/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/desktop/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/desktop/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/desktop/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/global/data/integration.dat ./ray/modules/global/inc/cron.inc.php ./ray/modules/global/inc/header.inc.php ./ray/modules/global/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/global/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/im/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/im/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/im/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/im/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/movie/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/movie/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/movie/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/movie/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/mp3/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/mp3/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/mp3/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/mp3/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/music/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/music/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/music/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/music/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/presence/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/presence/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/presence/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/presence/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/shoutbox/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/shoutbox/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/shoutbox/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/shoutbox/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/video/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/video/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/video/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/video/xml/skins.xml }}} * Open the file '''ray/modules/global/inc/header.inc.php''' and replace * '''[path_to]''' with the server path to Dolphin's folder, for example '''/home/user/community/ * '''[[BR]][[BR]] * Log into Dolphin's Admin Panel and navigate to '''Plugins -> Ray Suite'''.

To check the version of your widgets, open the following file inside each widget's folder: {{{ inc/constants.inc.php }}} Search for the version number which looks like this: {{{ 'code' => "chat_3.0.0000_free" or }}} {{{ 'code' => "chat_3.0.0000" }}} The Free widgets contain '''_free''' wording in these lines, while the Ad-Free ones don't. To replace the current Ray package in Dolphin with the appropriate one, please refer to [wiki:GenDolFAQs#HowcanIreplaceFreeRaywidgetswithAd-Freeonesandviceversa Ray FAQ]. ---- == My Ray widgets show "Not Registered" on user end though they have been successfully registered on admin end == * You're probably using the wrong license number. In order to check it out, open '''ray/modules/module_name/xml/main.xml''' and replace '''CDATA[enabled]''' with '''CDATA[not registered]'''. Then try to register your widgets again and you will probably encounter a problem mentioned in the previous paragraph. * If there's no problem registering the widget again, but it still appears to be unregistered on users end, you have most probably installed 3.1 widgets together with 3.0. In this case you need to install all widgets of the same verson. ---- == My Audio/Video widgets (Chat, IM, Video Recorder and Whiteboard) can't connect == * You need to [http://www.boonex.com/trac/ray/wiki/RayServerInstall install RMS], enable it and specify its IP address in '''Admin Panel -> Plugins -> Ray Suite -> Base Settings'''. Set the following ports: '''RMS Port: 1935''', '''RMS HTTP Port: 5080'''. If you still experience RMS connection problem with Free widgets, please contact [mailto:support@boonex.com BoonEx Support Department] and provide your site's full URL. ---- == I can't enter non-latin characters in Flash Applications == If you're going to use non-latin characters in Flash Applications, you will have to disable the transparent mode by unticking the corresponding checkbox in Flash Appplications Settings: '''Admin Panel -> Plugins -> Ray Suite -> Settings -> Send Flash applications backward (will support only english language)'''. But you should be aware that doing so will make other objects on your web pages unable to overlap Flash applications. ---- == Ray 3.1 !HotFix == Ray 3.1 !HotFix. Download [http://get.boonex.com/Ray-v.3.1-HotFix-Free Free] or [http://get.boonex.com/Ray-v.3.1-HotFix-AdFree AdFree] version. This Hotfix is with a minor fixes in Ray modules. They are: * Problem with version check in Ray Base * Corrections of buttons representation in VPlayer abd VRecorder * Minor bugs in Chat and IM interface The archives contain only '''''.swf''''' files. This !HotFix does not require any specific instruction on how to apply it. You should just upload '''''.swf''''' files according to their location in Ray modules and that's all. ---- == When I open the video recorder, it's connecting forever. In the admin panel it opens up ok, but hangs when I click on a video == You have recorded a corrupted video file. You need now to delete the folder that belongs to the member and is located in the '''rms_path/webapps/video/streams''' folder. Then you need to delete a few lines of code from the file '''rms_folder/webapps/video/streams/config.xml''' The lines look like these: {{{}}} ---- == Some or all of my widgets keep on loading and do not work. I can't see some buttons in Flash applications. == 1) This problem usually happens when there are writable permissions on folders and files when PHP is running in CGI mode. To check the mode your PHP is running in, log into your Dolphin's Admin Panel and then open the page '''admin/phpinfo.php'''. To fix it, you will need to set all folders permissions to 755 and all files to 644. The file '''ray/modules/global/app/ffmpeg.exe''' should be also set to 755. Now, if you have Dolphin 6.1.4 version, you need to let Ray determine your new permissions properly. To do so, open the file '''ray/modules/global/inc/function.inc.php''' and insert these lines of code: {{{ $sResult = ""; $bDir = is_dir($sFilePath); if(is_readable($sFilePath)) $sResult = $bDir ? "755" : "644"; if(is_writable($sFilePath)) $sResult = $bDir ? "777" : "666"; if(!$bDir && is_executable($sFilePath)) $sResult = "777"; }}} before the line {{{ return $sResult; }}} in the function '''checkPermissions($sFileName)'''. 2) This problem can also be caused by script's inability to open widgets' default skins. You can try the following tweak which will be harmless for the rest of the script functionality: open the file '''ray/modules/MODULE_NAME/skins/index.php and replace the line {{{ $sFile = $aResult['current'] . "." . $aResult['extension']; }}} with {{{ $sFile = "default.swf"; }}} '''''MODULE_NAME''''' stands for '''board''', '''chart''', '''im''', '''movie''', '''mp3''', '''music''', '''presence''', '''shoutbox''' or '''video'''. ---- == When accessing Orca, I get error "Warning: fopen(.../orca/conf/params.conf) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream" == This problem occurs only on those sites where PHP is running as an Apache module. On such sites, the files created by scripts (such as Dolphin or Orca), don't belong to the owner of the script's directory. That's why they sometimes become inaccessible after some actions on the site. This can be overriden by placing 666 permissions on such scripts: 1) FIX: * Create a script in Dolphin's home directory with the following contents: {{{ }}} * Name the script with the '''.php''' extension, for example: '''orca_fix.php''' * Run the script in a browser, for example: '''!http://dolphin_url/orca_fix.php''' 2) If you still get this error, try to do the following: 1) Delete the folders '''orca/classes/en''', '''orca/js/en''', '''orca/layout/base_en''', '''orca/layout/uni_en''' and the file '''orca/conf/params.conf''' (the subfolder '''en''' corresponds to the English language, while your subfolder may be named '''fr''' or '''de''' depending on what language you installed). 2) Compile [http://www.boonex.com/trac/orca/wiki/OrcaBeta2PostInstall Orca languages]. 3) Apply the above FIX. ---- == When trying to compile Orca languages I get error "Language files compilation have been failed" == See the [wiki:GenDolTShooter#WhenaccessingOrcaIgeterrorWarning:fopen...orcaconfparams.conffunction.fopen:failedtoopenstream previous solution] boonex.us_7577
