Jcomments and Kcaptcha Topic is solved

[borja]

Hello

I use jcomments and kcaptcha on my web. Today it stopped working the captcha. As far as I have read:

I have a problem because the Kcaptch class is deprecated and there were some problems with the captcha.

I change the php twice and it started to work again. the first change was to change the version of php from 7.0.30 to 5.6.36. My web doesn´t work. I went back from 5.6.36 o 7.0.30 and the captcha started to work properly.

what can be wrong?
these are rrge messages the ive got:

Deprecated: Methods with the same name as their class will not be constructors in a future version of PHP; KCAPTCHA has a deprecated constructor in /var/www/vhosts//httpdocs/components/com_jcomments/libraries/kcaptcha/kcaptcha.php on line 21

So? kcaptcha is incompatible with PHP 7. In that case, don't use kcaptcha. Simple, hmm?

It works with PHP7.0.30 but not with 5.6.36?

Looks fine to me in this case... you ought to be using at least PHP7.0.x by now, and preferably 7.1.x. PHP5.6.x is end of life.

I see no problem here.

[borja]

What is the option for a captcha for jcomments?

[sozzled]

See solution here (for PHP 7 and reCAPTCHA operability): https://github.com/exstreme/Jcomments-Recaptcha2

[borja]

Thank you. I have to download theses files and install in my web. How do i install this package? It is tested? it's not linked on joomla webas an extension, is it?

[borja]

Sozzled,

How can I use Recaptcha2? I select Recaptcha2 as the captch for the form but it doesn´t work properly.


Best regards,


Borja

[sozzled]

You need to create an installation package from the files and then you need to install the package on your website. That's what you need to do.

[borja]

Sozzled, I installed it and now I can choose Recaptcha2 but it doesn´t work properly because the image is not shown. Must I do something to activate this plugin?

[sozzled]

JComments is not "a plugin": it is an extension. Did you create an installation package from the files in GitHub? Did you install the package and activate the component and (at least one) plugin? Did you enable Joomla's Captcha - ReCAPTCHA plugin? Are you using Google reCAPTCHA v2.0 in Joomla's Captcha - ReCAPTCHA plugin? Did you update the Google reCAPTCHA keys?

[borja]

Sozzled,

I didn´t express myself properly.

The component is installed.
With plugin, i mean Recaptcha. I´ve got two plugins with the word recaptcha:

Captcha - ReCaptcha.

Captcha - Custom reCaptcha

Both of them are actived(I think). When I choose in the settings of Jcomments, the captcha to use, i choose recaptcha but nothing is shown. Not image is shown. Which plugin is being used?

I don´t know if I can , in private, give more details about my site.


Best regards,

[sozzled]

I don't know anything about Captcha - Custom reCaptcha; I do not know if this plugin works or what it is used for. Perhaps you should uninstall it?

You need to create an installation package from the GitHub library I mentioned about seven posts ago and the you can install that package. This package supports Google reCAPTCHA v2.0.

It also may depend on what version of PHP you are using.

[borja]

Hello,

I answer your questions. I´ve been trying this morning without success. THe PHP version is 7.0.31. I think that i installed the package from gitHUb. I chose "recaptcha" as the captcha system for comments and I disable the Captcha - Custom reCaptcha. I configured the plugin: Captcha - ReCaptcha

I don´t know if there is a method to see what's wrong bacause the captcha is not show with Recaptcha.

[sozzled]

Please post a screenshot of your Captcha - reCAPTCHA plugin settings.

[borja]

Hello
This is the configuration of the keys. I deleted part of my secret key for security reasons. It is quite simple.

[sozzled]

Thanks. It is good to know (from the screenshot) that you have selected v2.0 of Google reCAPTCHA. The screenshot does not tell us if the plugin is enabled or disabled. Next, can you please post your Forum Post Assistant report into this forum by following the instructions here: viewtopic.php?f=621&p=2371873

[borja]

the plugin is enabled. Later, I will add the file that you request me.

[sozzled]

I don't want you to "add the file" or attach anything. Please follow the instructions (generate the report, copy the BBcode and paste the BBcode here in your next post). Thanks.

[borja]

I paste the code.

I have used JComments and Kcaptcha, but I still got spam. I had one guest comment per month and 100 spam comments, so I stopped guests from posting comments due to spammingdespite Kcapcha.

[borja]

Could anyone help? Why recaptcha is not working? For me the problem with Kcaptcha,it is that the image sometimes disappears so I have to disable/enable the component and it starts to work again. With recaptcha I can never show the image of recaptcha.

[sozzled]

Kcaptcha doesn't work.

Google reCAPTCHA works for me (but only if I use the new package available from the GitHub location I mentioned earlier). I don't think the CAPTCHA works if you are logged-in. I think the CAPTCHA is only supposed to work for guests.

There could also be a problem displaying the CAPTCHA with some templates. It may be an idea to try to see if the CAPTCHA works with Protostar.

The FPA report show Session Path Writeable = No; ask your webhosting provider to set Session Path Writeable = Yes.

The FPA report also shows the permissions for the folders /components/com_jcomments/tpl/__MACOSX and /components/com_jcomments/tpl/__MACOSX/JoomSpirit_theme are 775; try setting them to the standard UNIX permissions of 755.

There is no .htaccess file. Try renaming the file htaccess.txt to .htaccess

The Open Base Dir is set; try to clear the Open Base Dir setting. Open Base Dir should not be used on a properly configured UNIX webhost.

PHP 5.5.5 is very old. Can you use a later version of PHP (e.g. PHP 7 or even PHP 5.6)?

Update to J! 3.8.11.

[Slackervaara]

If it doesnot work check with Inspect Element in browser what the path to Kcaptcha image is. For me it sometimes were wrong path with an extra slash.

[sozzled]

I use JComments and KCaptcha on my website. Today it stopped working the CAPTCHA. As far as I have read

... the KCaptcha class is deprecated.

This means there is a error generated by PHP. If there is a PHP error then it is unlikely that

... check with Inspect Element in browser what the path to Kcaptcha image is ...

... will help. If @borja has installed the new version of JComments (from GitHub) then there is no KCaptcha; none at all.

I change the PHP twice and it started to work again. The first change was to change the version of php from 7.0.30 to 5.6.36.

The FPA report shows that the website uses PHP 5.5.5.

These are the messages that I've got:

Deprecated: Methods with the same name as their class will not be constructors in a future version of PHP; KCAPTCHA has a deprecated constructor in /var/www/vhosts//httpdocs/components/com_jcomments/libraries/kcaptcha/kcaptcha.php on line 21

That's an error message generated by PHP 7.

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /var/www/vhosts//httpdocs/components/com_jcomments/libraries/kcaptcha/kcaptcha.php:21) in /var/www/vhosts//httpdocs/components/com_jcomments/libraries/kcaptcha/kcaptcha.php on line 201

I have not seen those messages before in my use of JComments, sorry. Perhaps they happen because of other problems with @borja's hosting environment?

[borja]

Thank you, but:

PHP Configuration :: Version: 7.0.31
Where do you see that the version is older(5.5.5.)? this is the version, as far as I know of Maria DB. Aslo is the version of PHP?

[sozzled]

My apologies. I was looking at the MySQL version ...

Anyway, you need to use the latest version of the JComments package from the updated GitHub repository. This should fix those PHP errors.

[Slackervaara]

I have taken a look again at JComments adapted for PHP 7. It works, but I cant refresh objects because an error in:

[php7:notice] [pid 8228:tid 1964] [client ::1:53271] PHP Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$owner_id in C:\\xampp\\htdocs\\Jisse\\components\\com_jcomments\\plugins\\com_phocagallery_images.plugin.php on line 33, referer:

Line 33 is:
$info->userid = $row->owner_id;

if (!empty($row)) {
$Itemid = self::getItemid('com_phocagallery');
$Itemid = $Itemid > 0 ? '&Itemid='.$Itemid : '';
$info->title = $row->title;
$info->access = 0;
$info->userid = $row->owner_id;

[sozzled]

@Slackervaara: that's a different issue, unrelated to JComments, and probably more about XAMPP; i don't use XAMPP, sorry.

Edit the query above to select owner_id column.

[Slackervaara]

Thanks, added the entire column.
