It’s on a back burner, there are updates planned but no schedule for them yet.

Hi webadmin thanks for the warning there.

Unintentional problem – I’m just so used to tar and gzip that I forgot about .zip!

The file actually has extension .tgz though I confess I hadn’t tried downloading it on a windows box. Anyway I’ve added a .zip archive to the download page aswell, hopefully that will work as an alternative.

I spotted a minor issue with the download file, it seems the phpaccounts-0.5.2.tar file has an extension less archive in it, i.e. “phpaccounts-0.5.2″. This behaviour might be by design to accommodate *nix platforms so I apologize to all you uber geeks chuckling away out there (:

I addressed the issue by extracting the no extension file and then renaming it to phpaccounts-0.5.2.gz. Then open the new file with your favourite exploder and copy the directory structure to your webserver.

The multiple injection exploit will be addressed in the next release, I’m working in it at the moment.

If you’re worried, you could do a quick fix and put http authentication on the folder where you install the files ( see here for a tutorial: http://www.technotrade.com/htaccess.html)

Does this release fix the multiple injection exploits from .5?

Thanks for the comment yuri, the command to unpack the file (on a unix system) is:
tar -zxvf phpaccounts-0.5.2.tgz

If you still get ‘unexpected end of file’, please try and download again, in which case it sounds like your download is corrupt.

Please continue this thread on the fourm.
