White screen php error when adding book with book tab.

Create a book from the book tab fails with php error

The book edit window opened fine, but when I tried to save the book the following error occurred.

The browser address line shows:

I suspect that this was present before and would occur if you create a Book normally. This error is occurring because the plain-text parser (used for things like RSS feeds and forum subscription notifications) is being accessed when you save the new article.

In vault/special_plugins_bbcode.php, find:

Code:

$parsedtext = strip_tags($bbcodeplain->parse($text, $forumid));

Replace with:

Code:

if ($foruminfo['vault_type'] > 0) { $parsedtext = strip_tags($wikicodeplain->parse($text, $forumid)); } else { $parsedtext = strip_tags($bbcodeplain->parse($text, $forumid)); }

If it's due to a notification, your book should be successfully created, but you will still have to add the chapter.

I will put in the patch, but this is occurring on all article creation, not just the book tab. It occurs in the book namespace and in the default namespace.

I had not tried to create an article since the upgrade this morning at 2:00 am.

The patch seems to have fixed the problem. I will continue testing other contexts.

The book was created in 5 copies, all identical in the book namespace listing. I deleted 3 of them.

I decided to look at the vault_list table to see what might be going on.

Every article appears 5 times with identical repeated records.

Rebuilding the namespaces seems to have no effect.

The namespace manager is also behaving strangely. i.e. If I click on the button to update namespace functions I get a message "The Default namespace function has not been set has not been assigned to a namespace."

Is there documentation on how the new functions are supposed to work? I don't see handles for special namespaces other than Default, Category and Image. Shouldn't there be special handling for Book and Template also?

These issues were reported several hours ago. Download the product again and replace your files. Then rebuild your namespaces.

What was occurring before was that every time you rebuild the namespace, it would just add more records to whatever was there. Now it should clear the namespace record first. This should also clear any false positives you had in the URL Manager.
