Currently, for drupal 6, beta9 is the recommended release on the project page - however, after downloading beta9, drupal complains that there is a security update and asks you to download beta10.

Project page needs to recommend beta10 as the best download.

Could the maintainer of ImageCache please say something about this issue? I am wondering whether it makes sense to upgrade to beta10 if it's not the recommended release. But I don't like the security update message on my site either.

I need the same advice. Waiting for Info from the maintainer!

I think the easiest solution is to roll something that will sort properly as greater than "beta10"

So, a "final" release (i.e. without beta) or a "gamma" release if you want to follow what MySQL does.

Same here -- Would like to know if beta10 is recommended or not. Thanks!

I would NOT install beta10. I did, and every page started throwing the following errors:

* warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, 'theme_imagecache_formatter' was given in /homepages/38/d177998626/htdocs/drupal6/drupal/includes/theme.inc on line 617.

I had to revert to beta9, and all is good.

I will be happy to test it out and report back if there are suggestions on how to get rid of the error msgs or new version to load.

Yep.

Though I can't even seem to download beta 10. Link appears dead.

(By the way, is there a better way to subscribe than posting in a thread? - Thanks)

cbannerjee: You forgot to clear the cache, by the looks of it. That error will be due to the theme registry cache.

mtsanford: The link is certainly working at the moment:
http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/imagecache-6.x-2.0-beta10.tar.gz

There looks to have been a fair amount of work done to the module since beta9, so it's hard to say at a glance if there's any particular problem with it. My only vague concern would be that the release was prompted by the security patches, which might mean that the other changes up to that point are not as well tested as they might be. But let's face it -- these are all beta releases. I suspect that beta10 is the way to go right now.

Here is the commit for the security fixes, if anyone particularly wants to merge that with beta9:

I would also like some clarification on the recommended release. I can confirm that we have been using beta10 on production sites for quite some time with no issues.

I just installed beta 9 and got the security warning in the admin to upgrade to beta 10.

After upgrading to 10, I get the following error when trying to create a new preset:

warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, 'imagecache_ui_preset_add_form' was given in [mywebpath]/includes/form.inc on line 372.

I cleared the cache, and had the site down while making the update.

Should I roll back to beta 9, or is there a quick fix to my problem?

Thanks.

Just tried that myself and had no problem making a new preset (just one resize operation). You should probably file a bug report or support request, as that is not the topic of this thread.
