[ZendTo] Recaptcha suddenly falling for multiple users

[Burns, Richard H.]

This seems to work for that. I also noted that the copyright is still 2015. I guess that’s okay.

Also, it looks like the new version requires mbstring. It just failed for me with it missing.

I've just put 4.20-2 on the website. The only change is this fix to upgrade_preferences_php.

Cheers,
Jules.

Richard,

The version number you want to display is set in preferences.php in the ZTVERSION setting right near the top.

Sorry, I missed a set of quotes in the upgrade_preferences_php script so it won't update the ZTVERSION value automatically.

Please try the attached script (gzip-ed) and it should fix that problem.

Cheers,
Jules.

I apparently upgraded and didn’t know it. I restarted apache, but it still shows Version 4.12 on the splash screen. The easiest way to verify I was running the new version was the “How secure is ZendTo” link on the main page which says it was introduced in 4.19-4. It appears the upgrade PHP script doesn’t change that setting.

If you're already running ZendTo on the server, just update the RPM/DEB file via yum or apt-get.
No need to do a fresh installation at all.

The installer is designed for *new* ZendTo servers.

Cheers,
Jules.

I tried some test accounts, and from the link of the user who first reported it to me with the same result. I also tired switching browsers and switch OS platforms with the same result. No one is in the Google site but me, and likewise no one gets into the server. But I verified the keys anyway and they are correct.



I gave a valiant effort to update to the new version, but stop during the rebuild of PHP. My server has mysql-5.5.45-1.el6.remi.x86_64 already installed, but the installed wanted mysql-5.1.73-7.el6. I could remove that, but then it wanted to remove zendto.noarch as a dependency and I could see that breaking the site. I may have to spin up a new server to transition to the new version.



During the process of the install, I found I was having troubles access the outside repositories. We have done some firewall changes, so I rebooted the server and both the repositories AND the ReCaptcha started working. I don’t quite why that affected it, but it seemed to.



Thanks for the help!

'In Flanders fields the poppies blow

 Between the crosses, row on row,

 That mark our place: and in the sky

 The larks still bravely singing fly

 Scarce heard amid the guns below.



 We are the dead: Short days ago,

 We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,

 Loved and were loved: and now we lie

 In Flanders fields!



 Take up our quarrel with the foe

 To you, from failing hands, we throw

 The torch: be yours to hold it high

 If ye break faith with us who die,

 We shall not sleep, though poppies grow

 In Flanders fields.' Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae



Composed at the battlefront on May 3, 1915

during the second battle of Ypres, Belgium
