QUOTE (Oliver George @ Oct 4 2008, 01:01 PM)  Please post any questions you have about applying the OpenX 2.6.2 www/delivery patch here. Where is 2.6.2 available for download? The release page feeds me 2.6.1. When I dropped in replacement files on 2.6.2, I was greeted with errors relating to view_local(). |

Hi,
I patched openX as directed (using the openssh method), but when I visit the update tab in administrator it reports I am still running 2.6.1 and not 2.6.2 I checked the files that were listed as patched and the dates on them have been changed to todays. Any ideas if the version number is just an error, or am I really still running unpatched? Cheers |

This patch simply applies some of the changes which will be included in that release. We expect to have it out on Monday. cheers, Oliver |

I am not sure what happened, but I have found that its been a few days since my Opnads has gone crazy.
All my banners are messed, either they are of a wrong size either they are displaying not where they have to etc. May it be that my Openads is hacked? My all other files are fine, but Openads managed banned(Adsense) are stretching each and every page where I have Openads code installed. How do I find out whats happening? |

Hi Aduser
Sorry to hear you're having trouble. While it is possible that this is the cause, I would suggest you consider other, more likely, reasons before assuming this. Please start a new forum thread to describing your problems and we'll look into this with you. cheers, Oliver |

I had problems applying this patch either way. I kept getting function.require errors in my logs. It was nearly impossible to figure out because the patched files looked fine. Turns out there were some carraige returns? or something in the files that weren't compatible with my linux box. Running 'dos2unix' on all the files in the zipped directory before moving them into the delivery folder fixed the problem.
Run this (in the unzipped directory with the new files): ls -1 | xargs dos2unix before moving the files and you should be ok if you're having the same issue as I did. Mike |

Thanks for the tip Mike.
We've released 2.6.2 so I'm closing this thread. Now that the release is available we recommend upgrading normally rather than patching your installation. Kind regards, Oliver George |
