Mysql error

Post by Circan »

There seems to be a website error in which the information in the attachment causes a nysql general error. Attempting to post the error report itself also seems to recreate the error as well.
Anyway, error report is in the attached .txt file.

Didnt liookj through it completelly but I know certain non standard characters (which arnt accessible directlly from a keyboard but accessible on standard character set maps) cause the sql to give errors. We had issues with it when we first migrated and it still comes up in copy and paste from other sites. I think the french accents in particular in the text is probablly what is causing the crash. Been too lazy to see if there is a fix for it. I know certain symbols from BG datamine posts also caused problems (namelly the brackets they used for elemental resistances)

This error is mostly like due to migration over to the newer phpbb3 already have a fix ready for it, just need to put it in, it seems like the error comes from recreate columns in mysql which has a different schema in .0.5 if that doesnt working, can try the one from bg but highly doubtful.

Is there risk of someone taking advantage of this error for a malicious purpose?

nope not to my knowledge but i could be wrong, this error happened because column schema from 0.4 is different in a way from 0.5 cant really inject anything of some sort seeing how its just 1 schema.
