Arcade problems or my PC?

Post by RyanLV »

Hey all, thanks for helping me with cookies, now I wanted to check some problem with Arcade.
Some big time ago arcade was working, but now it asks me to download adobe flash player, I tryed to uninstall and install adobe flash player, and when I go to Adobe Flash player homepage it shows what version I have installed, so I guess all is ok, but still I can't play games, keep asking me to download. I tryed Google Chrome, FF and IE, all the same.
Where is problem? My PC or Forum?
If PC then, what should I do?
Forum? Suggestions?
Thanks ;)
I can't post link sry.

Oh, saw that you have arcade here too.
ok, it still asks me to download adobe flash.
Maybe its because Im using Win7?
Can you try to run my arcade in my forum?
Does anyone have any idea what I need to do to stop this msg?
When I go to adobe homepage it shows me that I have last version of adobe flash.

hmm, you know I have been getting the same for a few weeks now and also running Windows 7.

I would say your arcade is probably fine and it is a problem with browser/PC, possibly since a Windows 7 update. Mine suddenly one day stopped working along with some java and ajax.

Afraid not. I have been through all the java updates, installing from clean download, etc but still have trouble with it.

If you find a fix, let us know.

I've had a look around on Google and the only advice I have seen is to revert to a restore point.

Are you running 64bit by any chance?

And that sorts the problem, did you have the same on the old version then?

It ran fine until a windows update.

I updated it, but it didn't help, because the problem is in my PC not Arcade. But thanks for Update ;) ( also downloaded and updated my gallery )


LDM - I'm using 32bit, I don't think that resume will help, or you want to resume before update?

I thought you were going to say 64bit, but I guess it could affect Windows 7 generally.

If you go to a system restore period, and work back until it works again but to be honest, if it was on an update, it will just re-apply again.

Best to check some Windows forums for a solution.

Here is a fix. I am still quite sure it was down to a flash update with Windows that affected some sites inc. phpBB Arcade installs.

Update to the latest version as Nano posted above.

Update the two files as here http://www.assembla.com/code/phpBB_Arca ... esets/1006

Purge all caches within ACP

If it still doesn't work, try adding this to includes/.htaccess

Code: Select all

<Files swfobject.js>
   Order Allow,Deny
   Allow from All
</Files>
and/or change the chmod arcade/js to 777
