Topic: Release 2.4.14

Announcement

This is a 2.4.14 release, which is mainly a bugfix release, but also contains an improvement and additional security fixes.

More php 8 problems has been fixed. This release should now be PHP 8 compatible. The following versions has been tested: 8.0.0, 8.0.7, 8.0.12 and 8.1.6. In Mysql 8, groups is a reserved word and was fixed by adding Backticks. Was only a problem when no table prefixes was used.

Please report any bugs/problems found via our Mantis Bugtracker at http://mantis.frontaccounting.com.

Security

FrontAccounting should NOT be used via unsecure http protocol. If you really need this - change SECURE_ONLY constant in /includes/session.inc to false (comment in the file added). Unfortunately this option cannot be added in sysprefs/config.php because the settings are not available before session is started.

Re: Release 2.4.14

This version now has 2 new translatable strings:

"HTTP access is not allowed on this site. This is unsecure. If you really "
"want to access this unsecure site then set the SECURE_ONLY to false in /"
"includes/session.inc file."

"Enter &Supplier Invoice"

Re: Release 2.4.14

@apmuthu,

The first string will not show if translated because its coming in the login screen and before the language is set.

Re: Release 2.4.14

Very true. Then how is the Username and Password strings coming in? Probably configuring preferred non english language as the default language in webserver and/or php.ini config files or from the FA config file itself!

The file lang/installed_languages.inc can also be where it can be set.

The access/login.php shows that some defaults like encoding and rtl/ltr are hardcoded when $_SESSION['language'] is not yet available.

Otherwise, the sane alternative for other strings are those of the default language of the default company.

Like @joe said, it is best to keep such issues / observations in separate posts outside the release announcement topics. This will keep the clutter down.
