1.0.8.2 Questions / Comments / Concerns

[loop]

i'm not sure what's the best approach...: is to update a liveshop from every version to every version? or if i don't update for example to 8.2 and i want to update to 8.5 or whatever, how can this be done? (of course, i could install a clean shop from scratch, but that would make a lot more work, than update every update at start....?

Make sure that the addons you use are updated by the author before you update your live shop.
For example, addon authors might update their addon to 1.0.8.0 but will not revise the addon until 1.0.9.0 is released.
In that case, it is best to stay at 1.0.8.0 and then use the upgrader utility to go from 1.0.8.0 to 1.0.9.0.

It also makes sense to update your test shop immediately on the release. Otherwise, you will never know if your add-ons are compatible or not. And if add-on makers have no feedback that their add-ons have stopped working, it is unlikely that they will update until they happen to notice.

No catalog side images visible in admin, if DEFAULT_IMAGE is set.

Tested also with a vanilla 1.0.8.2 installation: same results.

Should the Image->web_prefix be set somewhere?

My fix:

in admin/includes/functions/html_output.php

in function tep_image

replace:
$image->set_prefix(DIR_FS_ADMIN);

with:
if (Text::is_prefixed_by($src, HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER)) {
$image->set_web_prefix(HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG);
}
else {
$image->set_prefix(DIR_FS_ADMIN);
}

I am trying to install v1.0.8.2 in a virtual host using Wamp using PHP version 7.1.22 but get the following error when the install script is trying to install the sample data

There was a problem importing the database. The following error had occured:

Specified key was too long; max key length is 1000 bytes

Please verify the connection parameters and try again.
