This thread is for all your simple questions about installing and running Wakaba or Kareha, that just require quick answers. Please don't create new threads for issues like that, post them in here instead.

Before posting, check that the question has not already been answered in this thread, or in the previous two threads:

Also check the documentation: http://wakaba.c3.cx/docs/docs.html

There is also a setup guide by Anon: http://wiki.iiichan.net/index.php?title=Wakaba_and_Kareha_Setup_Guide

>>497 They changed their software and broke some basic functionality. Get a VPS, it'll probably cost less. Well, your site will be gone in a month or two anyway.

How can I enable webm support?

Image boards are for images, WebM is cancer.

agreed
pure, virgin textboards are the superior entity, however

>>504
Hm, well, I'd still like to have the option there for those who'd like to use it. Though, the only way of enabling this I can think of would be to allow all types of files and blacklist a few, something I'd rather not do.

So, I want a separate MOD_PASS in addition to an ADMIN_PASS, where MOD_PASS would work on one board and ADMIN_PASS would work on all. I've already set the ADMIN_PASSes to all be the same, created a constant MOD_PASS for each board, and edited check_password to be
sub check_password($$)
{

my ($admin,$password)=@_;
return if($admin eq ADMIN_PASS);
return if($admin eq crypt_password($password));
return if($admin eq MOD_PASS);
make_error(S_WRONGPASS);

}
but...it doesn't work
help pls?

There is an option in "config.pl".

Uncomment these three lines:
use constant FILETYPES => (
[...]
ogg => 'icons/audio-ogg.png',
[...]
);
and add this line:
webm => 'icons/audio-ogg.png',
somewhere near "ogg => 'icons/audio-ogg.png'," line.

I don't actually have any questions about how to get your software to work, it always seemed pretty straightforward and relatively easy for me. In my experience, just like you said;

"if it doesn't, there is something wrong with the configuration of your server, not the software."

I just wanted to thank you for making it.

According to most of what I have read and learned about perl,
most of what you have done is impossible, or would at least require an eight hour long castration process, with a pair of dull garden shears.

Eg; Kareha using javascript flawlessly without needing sixty modules from cpan, and a gcc compiler to choke and quit while compiling on windows (what I use, usually).
I'm still not entirely sure what Kozakana html/pl is, apart from a rocket on the back of a pig (want these skittles, kid? o.O) I'm impressed.

I'd agree though, that should be impossible.

Anyways, thanks for making it.

(PerHP is neat to, and I found it useful momentarily prior to discovering Markup::Perl via your link, which I promptly fell in love with.)

Have a great day. ( ゚∀゚)o彡゜えーりんえーりん!!

My insecure tripcode with a single quotation mark (') produces wrong output, please send help.

there is a bug where users can create unclosed tags, making every suceeding post bold or italic or whatever.

it happens on "<i/>" in HTML mode because the sanitize_html function in wakautils.pl allows tags other than br to be closed implicitly.

Here's what I would propose as a fix, simply block any tag from being implicit except the 'empty' ones (as defined in ALLOWED_HTML, config_defaults.pl):

Hello! I recently installed Kareha with "mode_image", and I want people to stay in the thread they post in, instead of being thrown out every time. I have been trying to figure this out for a while, and I don't seem to get any closer to a solution. Could anyone here help me out?

Hi.I have a problem with wakaba.

Malformed UTF-8 character (fatal) at wakautils.pl line 41

line 41: if($text) { $chars+=length $text; }

Hi there! Please assist.

Needed to move my discussion board to another host, but now my "wakaba.pl" page does not work (shows server default "moved" page) and also can't create new post, receive "Unknown Iframe Error" message.

Wakaba.pl set to 755. Directories to 755, files to 644, database imported under the same name with the same user and pass. Anything else that needs to be adjusted?
