If you have the active users mod installed, you need to increase the size of the M_BROWSE field in FORUM_ONLINE

Yes, I am using Active users mod, but exactly what files are those two?

He is talking about the M_BROWSE field in the FORUM_ONLINE table in the database. The size of the database MUST be increased...

Hi,
I am having the same problem, also using the Active Users mod, but how on earth do I increase the size of the m_browse field in the forum_online table in the database? I have never edited or even attempted to open my database, and cannot find software which would enable me to do so. Please, could someone give me step-by-step instructions to apply this fix? Also, elsewhere it is mentioned that this problem can also be fixed by changing something to 'memo' rather than the above - which fix is the better of the two?
TIA!

in the active_users_setup.asp file that came with the active users MOD:
change this line:
strSql = strSql & "M_BROWSE varchar (250) ) "
to this:
strSql = strSql & "M_BROWSE memo ) "
then just rerun the active_users_setup.asp file from the address bar of your browser. |
