April 20, 201016 yr Author I just deleted my /boot/unmenu folder, then used unmenu_install to download and install a new set of files from googlecode.com Invoking the file-browser, I see this: Everything seems to work as expected browsing files.. I'll need help in figuring out what you are seeing.... I'm using a PC, and I tried IE 7, Firefox and Chrome browsers. All seemed to work. Joe L.
April 20, 201016 yr Author Please attached find 2 screen-shots one for Firefox one for Safari. Are you on a MAC? Can you zip up the html of the rendered page? Obviously, something is wrong...
April 20, 201016 yr Yes, I am using Mac Os X, however, this was not a problem in the older version. The source code of the very same page is attached below. As you see, the "dir=" in the URLs are missing. file_browser.html.zip
April 20, 201016 yr Author It is not just the dir= .. The name of the anchor is missing too. It should look like this:[pre] <table cellspacing=0 border=1> <tr><td>• <a href="http://Tower:8080/file_browser?dir=/mnt/user/">/mnt/user/</a></td></tr> <tr><td>• <a href="http://Tower:8080/file_browser?dir=/mnt/disk1/">/mnt/disk1/</a></td></tr> <tr><td>• <a href="http://Tower:8080/file_browser?dir=/mnt/disk2/">/mnt/disk2/</a></td></tr> <tr><td>• <a href="http://Tower:8080/file_browser?dir=/mnt/disk3/">/mnt/disk3/</a></td></tr> <tr><td>• <a href="http://Tower:8080/file_browser?dir=/mnt/disk4/">/mnt/disk4/</a></td></tr> <tr><td>• <a href="http://Tower:8080/file_browser?dir=/mnt/disk5/">/mnt/disk5/</a></td></tr> <tr><td>• <a href="http://Tower:8080/file_browser?dir=/mnt/disk6/">/mnt/disk6/</a></td></tr> <tr><td>• <a href="http://Tower:8080/file_browser?dir=/mnt/disk7/">/mnt/disk7/</a></td></tr> <tr><td>• <a href="http://Tower:8080/file_browser?dir=/mnt/disk8/">/mnt/disk8/</a></td></tr> <tr><td>• <a href="http://Tower:8080/file_browser?dir=/mnt/disk10/">/mnt/disk10/</a></td></tr> <tr><td>• <a href="http://Tower:8080/file_browser?dir=/mnt/disk11/">/mnt/disk11/</a></td></tr> </table>[/pre] Let me look in the code. Obviously it is looping to attempt to print the various directories.
April 20, 201016 yr Author OK, root cause identified... Your "ls" command output has 8 white-space delimited fields, the directory name being the 8th.[pre] drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 152 2010-04-13 18:46 ./ drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 0 2010-04-19 17:32 ../ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 80 2010-04-14 18:53 Anime/ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 48 2010-04-12 14:21 Backup/ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 80 2010-04-14 20:06 Mike/ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 376 2010-04-18 00:27 Misc/ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 224 2010-04-13 22:06 Movies/ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6864 2010-04-12 21:39 Music/ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 48 2010-04-12 14:20 Photo/[/pre] My "ls" command has 9 white-space delimited fields, the directory name being the 9th.[pre] root@Tower:/boot/unmenu# ls -al --group-directories-first /mnt/user total 35 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 392 Apr 14 16:05 ./ drwxr-xr-x 14 root root 0 Apr 15 10:58 ../ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 14672 Apr 16 08:46 Movies/ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4064 Apr 14 16:03 Movies\ A-D/ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 72 Apr 14 16:03 Movies\ E-J/ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2664 Apr 14 16:04 Movies\ K-O/ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2248 Apr 14 16:05 Movies\ P-S/ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3976 Apr 14 16:04 Movies\ T-Z/[/pre] The file browser is parsing the 9th field to be used as the directory and/or file name. You apparently changed the time/date format of your server??? From "Apr 14 16:05" to 2010-04-13 18:46" Since you do not have a 9th field in your "ls" output, it is showing up as blank in the unMENU file browser. Now, the big question is "How did you change the "ls" output format??? Is this a change you made on your servers to display the time in a format you preferred? Or is is based on the time-zone file you installed? I'll need to change the file-browser code to deal with it, but first I need to know what it has to deal with. Joe L.
April 20, 201016 yr I did not change anything on the server but reinstalled the unMENU since my mail did not function as I have informed earlier. Now the mail is functioning, but this new problem - nevertheless, I can live with it. By the way, I checked the output of "ls" on my server and the date is given as 2010-04-19 as you have mentioned, not as Apr 14. I am using a NTP server, does it cause the difference?
April 20, 201016 yr Author I did not change anything on the server but reinstalled the unMENU since my mail did not function as I have informed earlier. Now the mail is functioning, but this new problem - nevertheless, I can live with it. I understand you re-installed unMENU, but this issue has nothing directly to do with unMENU. It has to do with the date-time format in the output of the "ls" command. You may not have noticed exactly when the file-browser in unMENU stopped functioning... I have no way of knowing since it would have been exactly the same issue with the older version of the file-browser. I have copies of the version 1.1 file browser, the version 1.2 file browser and the 1.3 file-browser. The ONLY change was between the 1.1 and 1.2 releases to be able to properly handle directory names with embedded spaces. Other than that, it has been the same. That change was long ago... It put quote marks around the directory names and added a "commented out, un-needed substitution of spaces for '%20' in the directory name." I had first tried to fix the problem. The diff of the two files look like this: < #define ADD_ON_VERSION 1.1.4 fixed handling of directory names with embedded spaces. Joe L. 203c201 < cmd="cd '''" decodedDir "''' 2>/dev/null && pwd || echo invalid-directory " --- > cmd="cd " decodedDir " 2>/dev/null && pwd || echo invalid-directory " 386d383 < # gsub(" ","%20",theDir) The issue you are seeing started whenever the time-format in the "ls" command changed. I remember a discussion on the forum of "how do I change the time format? on my server and in unMENU" I'll have to search for it to see who was asking the question and who else might have responded in the same thread. Joe L.
April 20, 201016 yr I am noticing the same thing as above, though i don't ever use the file browser so it is not that big a deal to me. Anyway, I also wanted to point out a little bug i found in one of the .conf files for the package manager. The openssl conf files needs to have the line that checks for the version changed. The line: PACKAGE_VERSION_TEST ls -l /usr/lib/libssl.so.0 | awk '{print $11}' should be changed to: PACKAGE_VERSION_TEST ls -l /usr/lib/libssl.so.0 | awk '{print $10}' Notice the '{print $10}' part!

Believe it or not, this is directly related to the bug I just fixed in the file-explorer. The "ls" command output format changes depending on if the file date is recent or not recent. Unfortunately, it changes the number of "fields" between formats. I'll fix the .conf file. But the answer is not just to look at field 10. It is to specify the time-format of the "ls" command and then look at field 10. Thanks for finding this for me. Joe L.
April 20, 201016 yr Author Newest fixes for both the file-explorer and the libssl .conf file and the cxxlibs .conf file are now in place on google.code. You can use the "Check-For-Updates" button on the user-scripts page to get and install them as well as any other recent updates you might not yet have. No need to re-start unmenu for any of these to take effect.
April 20, 201016 yr Author The issue you are seeing started whenever the time-format in the "ls" command changed. It turned out the "ls" command used two different formats when invoked with the "-l" argument. One format is for files with RECENT modification dates, the other for files with NON-RECENT modification dates. One format has 11 whitespace delimited fields, the other has 10 whitespace delimited fields. You would get a mix of the two formats when listing files in many directories. The fix was to specify the format of the time, and then look at the correct field. I've made that change and the new file-explorer is available on google.code. You can use the "Check for Updates" button on the user-scripts page, or you can invoke on the linux command line cd /boot/unmenu unmenu_install -u Thanks to all who helped find/fix these issues. Joe L.
April 20, 201016 yr I did install the new files, however, all my links are broken now. As you remember using Mac Os X the server nme "tower" or whatever does not function and a proper IP addres is required. Earlier the work around for this was to add the following lines to the conf file MyHost=192.168.0.5 unRAIDHost = 192.168.0.5 now it does not help, I still have the "name" in the URL, hence the broken links Ps: Killing and rebooting the unMENU did not make any change. Do I need to reboot the unRAID so it could read the changes in conf file? I shall try this next.

I shall try this next. Did your edited version of the .conf file get moved to the old_version sub-directory? If so, just move it back and re-start unmenu to get it to read it.
April 20, 201016 yr Author if you put those two lines in a file named unmenu_local.conf it should be recognized when you re-start unmenu, and not moved to the old-directory as you update unmenu.
April 20, 201016 yr I swapped the conf file and got the unMENU back. Now file browser is functioning as in older version. Great job. I have created the local.conf as well. Thank you.
April 20, 201016 yr Author I still need to fix the ISO browser in the same way. Forgot that you said it had the same issue.
