  • error with web setup

    From Rick V@VERT/LIVEWIRE to All on Sat Jun 7 20:28:56 2025
    I've been working on setting you the web server and ran into this error.

    !JavaScript C:\sbbs\webv4\lib/files.js line 1: Error: symbol 'FileBase' not defined by script 'filebase.js'

    I' don't understand this error and how to fix it. Yes I.ve read the "howto:web" but don't see an answer to this. Anyone know hot to fix this?

    Thanks,
    Rick V

    Your webv4/lib/files.js is out of date. The current version of that file contains:
    lib/files.js:require('filebase.js', 'OldFileBase');

    I' don't understand this error and how to fix it. Yes I.ve read the "howto:web" but don't see an answer to this. Anyone know hot to fix this?

    Looks like you've got a mixture of new and old files in your Synchronet install.

    That was the problem. I install the latest files, and it works fine now.. Thanks again.
