Forum ckeditor & reCapthca issues possibly because of PHP
 

I'm running vBulletin 4.2.0 Patch Level 2


At some point along the way it appears some thing has gone wrong and I am wondering if it is PHP related. We have moved servers recently but this issue could possibly be occurring from before. There may be other issues I am unaware of also.


issue 1

At first I was noticing line breaks weren't being converted into proper html tags, then I discovered it appears to be an issue with CKEditor not loading.

I've tried:

• Disable all plugins
• Create a new unmodified default template
• Ensured default mobile template version was set to "none"

I also went over other settings as I had seen suggested. I can't get it to load. I vaguely think I remember having the line break issue 6 months back but I probably didn't have the time to investigate and the people managing the forum aren't very technically suave so they'll let errors and such go by and not tell me :)

Which brings me to my second issue.


issue 2

After discussing the found problem with one of the forum managers they mentioned to me that the other manager had issues a few days ago recovering their password. I looked into it and it appears reCaptcha isn't matching the 2 word text string preventing users from recovering passwords.


So at this point I'm at a loss as to what is wrong. I'm thinking some thing PHP.


The older server was running PHP 5.2 since we had originally upgraded servers just so we could run vBulletin 4. The current server I am running on has PHP 5.3 running CentOS 6 / Plesk 11 / Nginx
