"Could not create paste: server error or not responding" [solved] about privatebin

[elrido]

Can you send us the error message found in your webserver / PHP log? Are you using privatebin_db or privatebin_data model? If the latter: Is your data directory writable?

[k0nsl]

It's the latter and yes the data directory is writable. I actually had the project running fine for a week or so until I pulled some of the new code from the repo today.
This is the most recent entries in the error log:

[elrido]

Are the files RainTPL.php and purgelimiter.php readable in the lib folder? The error indicates, that these classes weren't loaded.

[k0nsl]

@elrido: yes, they are readable and owned by the correct user.

Now I am getting further:

[elrido]

Sorry, then I am at a loss. :-(

I can't reproduce your issue on my test instance with PHP 5.6 and all the unit tests on PHP 7 indicate it is working, too. You need to figure out why these two files aren't included.

[...] instance of zerobin_abstract [...]

This would indicate, that the wrong class is loaded. Is the folder lib/zerobin still around? If yes, please delete it.

[k0nsl]

Does the error log posted just before your response help?

[k0nsl]

I "solved" it by deleting all the RainTPL functions in my template, as I don't really need those anyway.

It's working fine now!

😁

[k0nsl]

The only thing which is seemingly not working is the syntax highlighting:

[k0nsl]

Sorry for the flood of comments. I just wanted to say that I had to disable syntax highlighting as it would actually parse both HTML and PHP which made it very dangerous. I don't understand how that could be possible.

[UPPDATE: I have managed to get syntax highlighting to nominally work; it only works if you omit any opening and closing tags, etc,.
For example, a paste cannot include <?php somecode ?>, it can only be somecode. The same is true for HTML.
Here is an example paste: https://p.k0nsl.org/?4f43ed2e255f6eeb#FJpr4lnSj6hZJm+e31Jg/fY0jkm9OkspjTRHH2SxM/8=
At any rate, it appears I'm "getting somewhere" at last ;)

[elrido]

The HTML encoding issue was recently introduced with the preview feature (#4).

@k0nsl Just FYI: It is not necessary to change the title when an issue is solved. We already close issues when they are resolved. 😃
