Signature images not showing

[Killgore]

Yep, i'm using this BBCode to display one of my adoptables, but all i get is this: http://www.sylonia.isgreat.org/get/1.gif\ (http://www.sylonia.isgreat.org/levelup.php?id=1)
http://www.sylonia.isgreat.org/siggy.php?id=1 (http://www.sylonia.isgreat.org/levelup.php?id=1)
I read Sea's post, and tried changing the options in the admin CP, as well as re-uploading the images to the server as .gif files and it's still not working.

If you access the siggy.php file directly it doesn't want to execute:

http://www.sylonia.isgreat.org/siggy.php?id=1

Furthermore, my PC at least seems to think it is a zip file. What are the CHMOD permissions on siggy.php? Does the host support readfile() for PHP as well?

[Killgore]

The CHMOD is set to 750, default for the host I'm on, if it were a problem wouldn't all of the files not show?

How would i check to see if the host supports PHP readfile()?

[BMR777]

Create a new .php file and inside put:

<?php

phpinfo();

?>

Look for readfile(). Also look for readfile or readfile() under the disabled_functions listing, if it's there it's not going to work.

[Killgore]

Alright, the page http://sylonia.isgreat.org/test.php shows not a single mention of readfile(), nor is readfile in the disable_functions section.

Also, it might be useful to know that during the install, the script informed me that my host supported GD Image Libraries.

My computer, when I go to this adress (http://www.sylonia.isgreat.org/siggy.php?id=1) wants to download your siggy.php file :/

[Killgore]

Would changing the permissions have a different effect Brandon?

[BMR777]

I don't know if it would, the only thing I could think is that if it had the wrong permissions it might not be executed by the PHP interpreter and that would cause issues. Try setting the permissions to 644 and see if it makes a difference.

I didn't see readfile in your disabled functions, but your host has a lot disabled, so I wonder if something else that the file requires is also being disabled. Also, does your host force ads on your account? If they do, this could cause the file to not work properly.

[Killgore]

I doubt they force ads, but is there any way i could check to be sure? I'll change the permissions to 644 and give it a shot.

EDIT: Nope, not one bit. I don't understand why it tries downloading a zip file when it goes to siggy.php?id=1, I've loaded the same page on three different computers and got the obligatory error message that it's been displaying for quite some time.

If you download this file you will see "Readfile appears to be disabled on your host." So, it won't work. i think. :|

While that may be the case, if you look at the test.php link i gave a few posts earlier, you'll see that Readfile isn't disabled. Methinks Brandon was right, there may be a unforseen function disabled that maybe be required.

I'm not sure about this but it's worth a try
http://www.rusnakweb.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1944

[Killgore]

I tried that just now, but it didn't work. I also tried CHMODding every file on the server to 644 as well as 755, and it didn't display Tweeter, the first pet adopted, in my signature. It's still not showing for me, is it working for anyone else?

[fadillzzz]

What host are you using? maybe you should move to another host

[Killgore]

I'm using http://byethost.com/ i recently switched from http://000webhost.com because of bandwidth issues.

[fadillzzz]

I personally think byethost is worse than 000webhost but then again, any free host is worse than the paid one

what do you mean by bandwidth issues anyway?

[Killgore]

I tried running another website off 000webhost's servers, and they shut it down because went past my monthly bandwidth allowance, and my website was shut down permanently. But with byethost, i'm running the adoptables script alongside a phpbb3 forum. Byethost allows me to have ~204 Gb of bandwidth, whereas i'm unsure how much 000webhost was giving me (didn't tell me in the registration pages) but it was significantly less.

[fadillzzz]

000Webhost gives you 100GB bandwidth per month, I think it should be more than enough
how many bandwidth are you using per month anyway?

[Killgore]

I'm not sure, but i was running a phpbb3 forum on one of their free accounts and the forum had about ~25 members that logged on every day which generated enough traffic for them to shut it down. Also, it shouldn't matter a whole lot, but the forum was created for my Call of Duty: World at War (Wii) clan to chat and discuss things.

Killgore, look -
http://www.sylonia.isgreat.org/siggy.php?id=2
http://www.sylonia.isgreat.org/siggy.php?id=2 and it show image
...hym, try wiht /get/1.gif and .htaccess file;D

[Killgore]

It still doesn't seem to work for some reason.That seems to be a re-occurring issue, I'll put something in my signature from that server, it'll work the first time i view the image, but it will refuse to show when i try to load it again :/

[vexel]

Try to re-upload siggy.php file, your .htaccess file and if it won't work re-upload your images

[tehsimpl]

Make sure you enable hot-linking for your siggy.php

[Killgore]

Enable hot-linking? I've hosted this script on other servers without enabling anything before and it's worked just fine...
