Many problems installing on vbulletin 5

[Marcin Kalak]

Yes we tested vBET on vB 5.1.9. I suspect that this is a problem with the server configuration. Please try again using the DSO. If after completing .htaccess you will see the white pages try to disable translation providers in AdminCP->vBET->Translation Providers Availability. Do you have mod_rewrite enabled?

[rafail]

On Translator providers only google was active from beginning.
mod_rewrite is installed by default by apache
dso except from white characters, gives me the error Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent in .../includes/vbenterprisetranslator_functions.php on line 223

[Marcin Kalak]

Have you tested your DSO after my last post? I corrected a little one vBET file and I'd like to see if the DSO will work. This warning and white page are known issues whose solution wheel should be easier.

[rafail]

WORKED.

one question, sould i leave the lines you sent me on ignore urls?
also when i select a language the encoding needs to be set in browser to unicode in order to display correct characters. Is there a way to display translated language without need to select encoding on browser?

[Marcin Kalak]

Do not remove ignore the URL. This allows your attachments will not be parsed. If you see a white page you do not change the server configuration, white pages usually means issues with connection to a translation provider.
Already I look and tests of character encoding issues.

Also on translated pages the image attachemnts are not shown. please check that also

[rafail]

I have changed Languages and phrases>Language manager>edit settings and edited "HTML Character Set" to "UTF-8" and the encoding issue solved.
The only problem now is that attachments are not displayed on translated pages

[Marcin Kalak]

Did you could show such a link where attachments are displayed on not translated page, and where they do not appear on the translated page?

[rafail]

I fixed attachments by doing a repair on attachment tables (admincp>repair/optimize tables)

My conclusion (to all vb5 users that want to install this plugin on their forums):

This addon had some installation problems that were fixed with "Marcin Kalak" Help (Many Thanks)

To install it on Vbulletin 5.1.9 you need to edit "/core/includes/config.php" by adding this line on the end of it:

$config['Misc']['admincpdir'] = 'admincp';

The PHP processor must be "DSO" , not "CGI". So if you have "cgi" you must chage it to "DSO" on your server. On WHM cpanel it can be changed by going to "Service configuration>Configure PHP ad SUExec" And select there "PHP 5 Handler" to "DSO"

The .Htaccess should have on the beginning these lines:

RewriteEngine On
Options FollowSymLinks

RewriteRule ^/?(af|sq|ar|be|bg|ca|zh-CN|hr|cs|da|nl|en|et|tl|fi|fr|gl|de|el|iw|hi|hu|is|id|ga|it|ja|ko|lv|lt|mk|ms|mt|no|fa|pl|pt|ro|ru|sr|sk|sl|es|sw|sv|zh-TW|th|tr|uk|vi|cy|yi)/archive/index.php/(.*)?$ archive/index.php?/$2&language=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^/?(af|sq|ar|be|bg|ca|zh-CN|hr|cs|da|nl|en|et|tl|fi|fr|gl|de|el|iw|hi|hu|is|id|ga|it|ja|ko|lv|lt|mk|ms|mt|no|fa|pl|pt|ro|ru|sr|sk|sl|es|sw|sv|zh-TW|th|tr|uk|vi|cy|yi)/$ index.php?language=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^/?(af|sq|ar|be|bg|ca|zh-CN|hr|cs|da|nl|en|et|tl|fi|fr|gl|de|el|iw|hi|hu|is|id|ga|it|ja|ko|lv|lt|mk|ms|mt|no|fa|pl|pt|ro|ru|sr|sk|sl|es|sw|sv|zh-TW|th|tr|uk|vi|cy|yi)/(.*)?$ $2?language=$1 [L,QSA]

And at the end this lines:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !redirected=
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !do=
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(core|admincp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images|css|js|login|auth|ajax)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ vbenterprisetranslator_front_controller.php?redirected=$1 [L,QSA]

You must add add to "AdminCP->vBET->Translation Options->Ignore URLs":

/filedata/
/fetch
/image.php

And go to "Admincp>Languages and phrases>Language manager>edit settings" and edit "HTML Character Set" to "UTF-8"


And Vbet Translate plugin will work on Vbulletin 5.1.9
EDIT 27-12-15: after some better checks i found many problems, pages not even translated and many db errors occured....

[Marcin Kalak]

I am glad that I helped you. In the next release vBET will not be necessary to change the config file.
