Hello, I'm currently running CPanel latest version, latest buildapache.sea
but users are having a problem with VBulletin software now.
When they try and edit their templates it only shows edited ones
(in blue) but the original ones ( in green ) do not show and it
looks something like this:

Default [edit] [remove] [add template] [show all] [collapse groups]
Custom templates
P_activetopics_sidebox [edit] [remove]
P_activetopic_centerbox [edit] [remove]
P_activetopic_centerboxbit [edit] [remove]
P_banners [edit] [remove]
P_breadcrumb [edit] [remove]
P_calendar [edit] [remove]
P_ForumLeftColumn [edit] [remove]
P_home [edit] [remove]
P_logincode [edit] [remove]
P_logoutcode [edit] [remove]
P_newsbits [edit] [remove]
P_newspastbit [edit] [remove]

Do you have your global vars on? I think php 4.2 has them off by default. That might be the problem.

Yes they are

; Whether or not to register the EGPCS variables as global variables. You may
; want to turn this off if you don't want to clutter your scripts' global scope
; with user data. This makes most sense when coupled with track_vars - in which
; case you can access all of the GPC variables through the $HTTP_*_VARS[],
; variables.
;
; You should do your best to write your scripts so that they do not require
; register_globals to be on; Using form variables as globals can easily lead
; to possible security problems, if the code is not very well thought of.
register_globals = On

Well I would tell you to post this on the vb forums, but they have been down all day :( . Anyways if I recall correctly there was a problem with php4.2 and sites that use vbulletin software. I remember that it had something to do with the templates system, but if I were you I'd downgrade php to version 4.1.2.

To fix these, make sure that you have got register_globals turned ON in your php.ini file. If you need help with this, please contact your host.

Is what vBulletin say so, its not the register_globals... better off asking at vbulletin.com
