Bug vbshout stuck at Loading - SyntaxError

[DemoniK]

Updated my forum to vB 4.2.3
As part of that I also needed to update php to 5.4
I then updated to 6.2.13pl1 of vbShout from lite to Pro by uninstalling the lite plugin and installing the pro

Since then I can't get the shoutbox to load properly - is stuck on 'Loading'

Pulling up chrome's debug console it's reporting an error in the vbshout.js

This browser is AJAX compatible
vbshout.js?v=6213pl1:3 Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier
vbulletin-core.js?v=423:11 Firing System Init
vbulletin-core.js?v=423:11 Fire vB_XHTML_Ready
vbulletin-core.js?v=423:11 Fetch Cookie :: vbulletin_collapse = ''​

Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi there,

It looks like the JS file is getting mangled by the server somehow. Do you have some form of JS compression tool installed either on your forum or your server?

I'm struggling to think of what this could be, as the JS file you're seeing is not 100% identical to what's in the download, from what I can tell.

No js compression.
Was OK until I updated to php5.4 which was promoted by the update of vB to 4.2.3
Have made no other changes.

Hi there,

Could you please re-download vBShout and re-upload the JS file referenced? There was an issue with our JS Minifier that caused a corruption issue with the downloads, but this has now been corrected

Sorry for the inconvenience

Meant to add...
Will try and do some diffs and see what is changing.

Will do. Thanks for quick turnaround

That was it - works perfectly now
phew..

I'm guessing it applied to also the vBShout for XF which I downloaded too and had same issue. Trying to evaluate a move over on another site
So will check that out again too.

Thanks again.
