fxstein Great work so far, I have been watching this thread closely

I have installed 1.0.5

got an error about trigger_dbwarning() being undefined ,when accessing the backend of fireboard, I searched for this function else were in the file, but could'nt see it, so I just commented out line 138 in com_fireboard/sources/fb_config.class.php, it would be a simple fix.

The error went away , but I'm not sure how important that line of code was

trigger_dbwarning("Unable to drop existing configuration table.";

But I will continue test out the new build

Update when I try to save the setting I get the following error

Catchable fatal error: Object of class fb_Config could not be converted to string in /home/gamezspa/public_html/dmcfanboy.com/components/com_fireboard/sources/fb_debug.php on line 61

Found the problem.

I assume you ran the upgrade without running the converter? That's totally ok - just checking.
You don't have a config table when you go into the backend. That's the one case I did not test again last night.
It's a very simple fix and I will repost the build shortely.

My fears have come true...

Let me check the PHP documentation ho much I have to downgrade my code to work with non 5.x....

Any chance you can test with PHP 5.0 or similar?

no chance sorry

Ok try NB4 - just posted. I hope it was only the private function modifier. Removed it.

I have posted the next nightly build files for download:
joomlacode.org/gf/project/fireboard/frs/

While not all bugs have been fixed, I hope this will be the last nightly build before the first release candidate.
It now contains the database level configuration, an enhanced install and upgrade class and more robust error handling in wide parts of FireBoard.

If you want to upgrade from a prior version of FireBoard (for testing right now) please follow the instructions here:
www.bestofjoomla.com/component/option,co...id,6/id,53586/#53567

Once you have run the converter and AFTER you made sufficient backups, just uninstall the old FireBoard version and install the new nightly build.

Reminder - THE NIGHTLY BUILD IS NOT FOR PRODUCTION

During the upgrade some of the upgrade SQLs will be marked as failed. That is normal. As there are several db schema versions and countless manually modified versions around, the upgrade tries to perform all the schema upgrades since 1.0.0. Those that have been performed earlier will fail. Again that's ok and normal.

Let me know how this is working for you.

Thx!

Good night!

Updated with NB4 files to fix the error handling for missing config data (upgrade w/o converter) as well as non php 5 installs.

hm now i get these Error

Warning: Could not load latest Version record.nDB function failed with error number 1054
Unknown column 'versiondate' in 'field list' SQL=SELECT `version`, `versiondate`, `installdate`, `build`, `versionname` FROM `jos_fb_version` ORDER BY `id` DESC LIMIT 1;

The warning just says that you have no configuration data saved. If you use the converter it creates that for you - if not simply update the config and save it. (backend)

Need to look into the other issue - might be a php version problem again.
