  • Re: Version A46 - Upgrade?

    From Intangybles@21:4/170 to Bucko on Thu Jun 1 15:00:36 2023
    - Bulletins not notifying when they are updated
    - (Y), (N), (C) no longer works (found out (1) and (0) do

    The Bulletins not updating is a bug in the bulletin.mps use the older bulletin.mps from A45 and it will work fine.. :)


    Thats super news! Thank you!

    Hello all,

    I have to admit my current BBS has been a tad neglected!

    I had an email loss issue - that in the end was nothing to do directly with
    the BBS software - but it was suggested to me that I should perhaps upgrade.

    I am currently running A46 and its playing ball very well - generally.

    Is there a current need to upgrade? And.. if so would it be a 2 step process?

    ie; A46 -> A47 then A47 -> A48

    Many thanks, Mark.

    I always do the 2-step myself. That said, I am having issues upgrading from A46-A47.

    - Bulletins not notifying when they are updated
    - (Y), (N), (C) no longer works (found out (1) and (0) do
    - few other items that I forgot as I started writing this.

    I run on WIN7 Virtual from a server I picked up from old work place years ago. I did create a copy/backup, but had added so many things since (doors, etc.) and didn't notice the above until too late to revert back.
    I've tried to install new/fresh to another directory then copy over - fails still.
    Hoping bulletins can be fixed with later update (file-type mismatch if I do anything else with it). I figured the (Y), (N), (C) was just a menu issue, but can't get that fixed either.
    Main reason I upgraded was for the FIDOPOLL - MUTIL "conversion".

    Anyone else wanna chime in?

    Thats a bit of a bugger to hear! I'm on Linux, running in a cloud server so
    its no trouble to snapshot.

    I read of the fidopoll change, is that a 'required' thing for echomail at all?

    Hope you get the bulletins sorted out!

    Mark.

    .46 worked for me all this time, just had to make sure I was using mutil instead of fidopoll.

    Hope you get the bulletins sorted out!

    Thanks -- I created a new user and it works properly, so there has to be a FLAG or something I'm not seeing that "turns new bulletins" off or something. ;(
