Thank you so much for the plugin!

Great job, this plugin is very handy. Instead of looking for updates manually.

By the way is this an error? Version 1.1 is installed but new version is said to be 0.5. This is the default plugin that came with vanilla.

Version: 1.1 - WYSIWYG (CLEditor) A newer Version: 0.5 was added to Vanilla forums on: 2010-11-03 18:43:51 by: rak
Information: cleditor-plugin-0.5

Peregrine, all of your plugins are awesome. I use most of them . I will definately consider donating when I have the money.
Keep working and making them better . Thumbs up for you.

Good point. You did find a bit of a logic error, but the simple fix is change the word "newer" to "different" .

This happens If the plugin in your forum installation is not "updated" in the add-on section.
Since you have version 1.1 and the add-ons is not 1.1 or 1.2.
As, was pointed out, if you retrieve add-ons from github instead you will also see similar issues.

summary:

The Version Check plugin just tells you for the most part

Does version of addon on your local forum == the version of plugin at http://vanillaforums.org/addons

I should probably say a different version, rather than a newer version. You probably need to look at the date. and version of vanilla it is recommended for and make the logical decision.

---

Since everyone has a different technique for giving version number and dates.

It is more trouble than it is worth to compare numbers and letter and periods.

I don't see much of an update to the plugin unless I change "newer" to "different"

different* = it may be newer, check version and date and description to see if you want to update to different version

That is also the reason - I didn't add an auto-install - because you really need to manually look at version number, date, and description and recommended vanilla version, and readme.

Yea, the word different would be good, but still it might confused more people. I thinks its fine as it is then

updated to show

1. cgi ownership
2. current vanilla version for easy viewing
3. easily view version number of enabled plugins, as well as phpinfo
4. ownership and perms of config.php

Running Vanilla Version 2.0.18.8 PHP Version 5.2.17

Version Check fails for me on posix function. Message is:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function posix_getpwuid()

I suspect my environment is missing something.

Here is what the Version Check shows on PHPInfo in the
"Configure Command" row:

'./configure' '--with-libdir=lib' '--enable-cgi' '--enable-fastcgi' '--prefix=/usr/local/php5' '--with-config-file-path=/web/conf' '--disable-posix' '--enable-bcmath' '--enable-calendar' '--with-curl=/usr/bin/curl' '--with-gdbm' '--enable-exif' '--enable-ftp' '--with-gd' '--with-freetype-dir=/usr' '--with-jpeg-dir' '--with-png-dir' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--with-gettext' '--with-mcrypt=/usr/bin/libmcrypt-config' '--with-mhash' '--with-pdo-mysql=/usr' '--with-mysql=/usr' '--with-mysqli=/usr/bin/mysql_config' '--with-openssl' '--with-pspell' '--enable-soap' '--enable-wddx' '--with-xsl' '--with-zlib' '--enable-mbstring' '--enable-zip' '--enable-apc'

If the culprit is the "--disable-posix" parameter, then how do I enable it?
My service provider is GoDaddy.

Hope I provided the necessary info.
Thanks,
Roger

this is something to ask your host.

alternatively if you have posix disabled - you could go into

/VersionCheck/views/versioncheck.php

look for these line....

        echo "<tr><td>";
            echo "File owner:";
            echo "</td><td>";
            $owner = (posix_getpwuid(fileowner($filename)));
            echo $owner['name'];
            echo "</td></tr>"; 


            echo "<tr><td>";
            echo "File group:";
            echo "</td><td>";
            $group = (posix_getgrgid(filegroup($filename)));
            echo $group['name'];
            echo "</td></tr>"; 


change it to


   echo "<tr><td>";
            echo "File owner:";
            echo "</td><td>";
        //    $owner = (posix_getpwuid(fileowner($filename)));
       //     echo $owner['name'];
           echo "owner is N/A";

        echo "</td></tr>"; 


            echo "<tr><td>";
            echo "File group:";
            echo "</td><td>";
         //   $group = (posix_getgrgid(filegroup($filename)));
       //     echo $group['name'];
            echo "group is N/A";
       echo "</td></tr>";

Peregrine -- the commenting worked -- thanks ! ! !

no need to do the above in version 1.6

fixed to auto-check if posix enabled or posix disabled.
