Ban URL Bug

[Iceburg]

I have the Ban URL up and working and its been great... but I continue to get spammed. For example

listing banned domains

www.somespamsite.com
www.greathealthinformation.com
custom-writing.org
custom-writing.org
www.greathealthservices.com
custom-writing.org
www.greathealthservices.com
custom-writing.org
www.love-shop.biz
www.love-shop.biz
custom-writing.org
custom-writing.org
custom-writing.org
(etc, etc, etc, etc)


You can see that these custom-writing.org bastards are submitted articles to the site, and its annoying me. I can ban all the URLs but all they need to do is to change one thing:

http://www.spammer.com/bastards.htm
http://www.spammer.com/bastards1.htm

and its a new URL and its allowed to submit. Can I ban a domain?

Did you set 'Enable spam checking' to TRUE in your admin panel and are these sites in your anti-spam.txt file? What pligg version are you using?

[Iceburg]

Yes, in the anti-spam file, here are my settings:



description: Checks submitted domains to see if they're on a blacklist.
value: true
default value: false
expected values: true / false
Main spam ruleset
description: Main spam ruleset
value: antispam.txt
default value: antispam.txt
expected values: text file
User Spam Ruleset
description: User Spam Ruleset
value: local-antispam.txt
default value: local-antispam.txt
expected values: text file
Spam log
description: File to log all spam blocks into.
value: spamlog.log
default value: spamlog.log
expected values: text file

Local-antispam:

www.somespamsite.com
www.greathealthinformation.com
custom-writing.org
custom-writing.org
www.greathealthservices.com
custom-writing.org
www.greathealthservices.com
custom-writing.org
www.love-shop.biz
www.love-shop.biz
custom-writing.org
custom-writing.org
custom-writing.org
custom-writing.org

antispam.txt is blank.

[Iceburg]

I just added the spammer to the antispam.txt and it made no difference if I try and submit an article from their site.

[Iceburg]

Ash, anyone? Have a good answer?

[Iceburg]

Still doesn't work, and I am still getting spam.... help?

[AshDigg]

Sorry for the delay. I did some testing on your site and figured out the problem. I'll have a fix for you tomorrow. Thanks.

[Iceburg]

No problem Ash, let me know what you find, and the best way to resolve.

The fix at:
http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pl...8&pathrev=1049

almost works.

I get:

URL is invalid or blocked: (http://custom-writing.org)

try again



but... I also see:


Warning: fopen(spamlog.log) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/ftb/public_html/libs/link.php on line 797

Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/ftb/public_html/libs/link.php on line 798

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/ftb/public_html/libs/link.php on line 799

I even gave full RWX permissions to all on the local-antispam.txt file
