Good find.<br /> I bet it's just copied from the WordPress code.</p> <p>If you know how, you might want to stick that into TRAC (and if you have the time, check WordPress and it's TRAC too) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/getmypid-often-disabled-on-shared-hosting-systems#post-17333 Wed, 16 Jul 2008 03:21:13 +0000 i_xiter 17333@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>In bb-includes/class-phpass.php on line 43, bbpress uses getmypid() to create the randomstate for password hashes.<br /> On shared hosting systems, getmypid() is disabled very often.<br /> I replaced it with uniqid(), and bbpress didnt throw the WARNING anymore.<br /> getmypid() does not return a unique value in all cases. Especiall when PHP is running as an apache module in shared hosting sytems. Also for this reason its much better to use uniqid().<br /> uniqid() gives a 13 digits value. uniqid('', true) even 23 digits. I think this should be good enough for the randomstate. ;)</p> <p>Please consider to use uniqid() in future versions of bbpress.</p> <p>thx for your attention<br /> ix </p>
