Serendipity Forums

All of the sudden, editing an entry comes up with all the fields populated with a capital "U". I haven't made a change (that I can remember) and don't understand what is happening. Everything else works (enter, delete, etc.).

To edit an entry I have to go to the database to do so now.

I've been using serendipity since 2004 and have added many features and haven't wanted to upgrade. So I haven't yet... I'm not sure of the version but the files are dated 2004/05/02 in the headers.

I'm hoping someone might have an idea. Even if I have to upgrade, I still would like to know what happened!

Thanks for any help.

Hi!

Can you use phpmyadmin to check your Database? It sounds as if your tables could be corrupted.

The database is fine. I can enter an entry and it displays properly. I edit it with phpmyadmin because the serendipity edit is acting weird as described.

Thanks

Hi!

What's your URL? Do the entries still display properly in the frontend of your blog?

Did you change anything since this "U" problem is happening? It shouldn't start aciting like this on its own.

The capital "U" could happen if the DB query returns an invalid entry, in which case a string like "Undefined index: blabla" could get truncated to "U". Please also ask your provider if they maybe changed the PHP or MySQL version?

Blog displays fine... www.scotthicks.com. Everything seems to be working except that editing page.

So far I can't tell if hostmonster has changed anything.

I'll put breaks in the code to see if I can determine the result set from the database when editing.

Thanks.
