amaltemara Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Help! I'm getting garbage characters at the top of every whmcs page, some pages with 2 or 3 page lenghts of these characters repeated.. I upgraded recently from an older version to the most recent version, and switched back to the default template, but they're still there... http://sageserver.com/whmcs I'm not sure if it's something to do with smarty, but it seems to be inserted before any template code. This is the default template. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, thanks! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHMCS Support Manager WHMCS John Posted December 7, 2009 WHMCS Support Manager Share Posted December 7, 2009 Download the file fresh from our client area, then try a full delete and reupload of your WHMCS files. Looks like there might be a file in your WHMCS directory that shouldn't be there. No data will be lost by doing this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amaltemara Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 That is how I installed it, but I tried again.. I downloaded the latest release, unzipped it in place, renamed the install directory, and still have the odd characters... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never expected OS X to dig into my archive and add a bunch of garbage files! It looks like for every normal file 'abc.xyz', there was a corresponding '._abc.xyz' in that same directory. This fixed it... From the whmcs root directory, I executed this from the shell: # find -iname '\._*' | xargs rm -f 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bear Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Glad you fixed it. Have to love how an OS thinks to protect the user from himself. You can probably disable that, just like Windows users disabled that ill conceived protection scheme in Vista that asked if you wanted to allow *everything*, one prompt at a time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHMCS Support Manager WHMCS John Posted December 7, 2009 WHMCS Support Manager Share Posted December 7, 2009 Ah interesting, I'll remember that. Sorry for making you re-upload everything 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
