[Fixed] White screen when trying to upload or download a page

Boen, Jan -- on Oct. 23 2006

Since upgrade to YACS 6.9

I've just recently upgraded our local YACS server to version 6.9

Since then I'm unable to attach or download a file. In both cases the browser just shows a white screen. tried this on 2 instances of YACS from 2 different PC's with both Firefox and Internet Explorer. Everything else seems to work fine. Any idea what might be wrong?

Cheers

Jan

Reference set of 465 files built on 061015-21:50:50 GMT on server www.yetanothercommunitysystem.com Download of updated scripts. Please wait... No file has been downloaded. Scripts on your server are exact copies of the reference set. All scripts
Bernard from nearby-an-airport Associate, 6805 posts	on Oct. 24 2006 The issue has been fixed. Two functions were expecting to receive references to parameters, and in some conditionis were receiving plain data instead. Most versions of PHP accept this, but some are fooled to a white page. Hot fixes have been applied to Jan's servers. Updated scripts will be provided in the next YACS release.
