Help Install with VB3

Hi. I have vbulletin 3.6.5 operating on my board. I just purchased pp-classified and I uploaded everything and setup my database. I ran the install and everything appeared fine until it got to the step after I selected GD 2.0 graphics Library (mogrify is not available on my host). The next screen asked for the forum user database directory... pretty much like the first screen... I double checked the fields and everything was correct. I hit next and got this error:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/usr/local/mysql-5.0/data/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/content/e/z/u/ezurick/html/pp-classifieds/install.php on line 1082
I cannot connect to the Members database

and it's locked up. I tried to re-run install.php and after the first screen I get a screen full of errors.

How can I get this installed...

my website is at: http://www.smclassified.com/pp-classifieds/install.php

Please help anyone...

btw, I am using godaddy for a host...

Update

ok... I attemtped to delete the classified database and create a new one with the same name/user/password. That went ok.

I also manually added the $usegd = 2; to the config-inc.php to hopefully over ride the insall...

I re-ran the install and after checking the settings on the first page, it claimed to update the config-inc.php and I hit next... now I get this error:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user 'ezclassified'@'p3slh021.shr.phx3.secureserver.net' (using password: YES) in /home/content/e/z/u/ezurick/html/pp-classifieds/install.php on line 533
I cannot connect to the PhotoPost Classifieds MySQL server. [host:$host][mysql_user:$mysql_user][mysql_password:$mysql_password]. Check your config-inc.php for the correct settings and rerun.

WHAT is going on... why can't I get this program to install... please help! I am getting desperate....

again, my website is at: http://www.smclassified.com/pp-classifieds/install.php

You need to on the first step of install the config place the proper mysql settings for both the classifieds database and the vbulletin database in both database places. The error you keep getting tells me you are not inputting correct database information on the config therefore you are not able to install till this info is correct.

I figured it out... it was that part of the database settings where normal servers use 'localhost'. Apparently godaddy uses a different one for each database.

I am a bit fuzzy how this works... Again, I am using vb3 with pp-classified... but which index.php should users be directed to? The vb3 or the pp-classified. Right now if I go to the vb3, I do not see the classified and if I goto the pp-classified, I do not see my forums. I see at the end of the install instructions (5.) about vb3 integration adn asks to open header-inc.php and follow the instructions. I open that file and I see absolutely nothing to chage. I must be missing something in that file, please help...

Also... I can get to to the admin screen fine. I added categories and such... then I went to the user index to try out my new categories, I get this on everyone I click on:

Warning: main(/home/content/e/z/u/ezurick/html/pp-classifieds/languages/english/showcat4.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/e/z/u/ezurick/html/pp-classifieds/showcat.php on line 260

Warning: main(/home/content/e/z/u/ezurick/html/pp-classifieds/languages/english/showcat4.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/e/z/u/ezurick/html/pp-classifieds/showcat.php on line 260

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '/home/content/e/z/u/ezurick/html/pp-classifieds/languages/english/showcat4.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/content/e/z/u/ezurick/html/pp-classifieds/showcat.php on line 260


Please help....

If you load the vb3 enhanced integration you surely can get to your forum. To get to the gallery most users post an html link in their vb navbar template to the gallery

As far as you adding categories you mistakenly setup a new ad type without making the new templates and files. You then added a category and set that category to a new ad type that does not exist since those files are not there. I will link a thread below which explains how to create new ad types. You can edit the category in question and set it to an ad type which does exist and you should be fine

FAQ--How to Create Additional Template Set's in Classifieds
Oh boy... thanks Chuck. I did figure it out and was going to update this thread. I added a new type called announce, because the default options didn't fit my announcements category. I just copied a number 4 file for all the templates that had the three. That worked.

As far as the first item. Apparently it is normal that forum index and the pp index is separate. So the normal thing is to direct visitors to the forum index and edit the forum vb navbar. I hate to ask, but I am not sure how to do that. Is there something written (step by step) to show how to do that? Thanks again for your help...

vbulletin should have tutorials on their support site how to edit their templates

all you do is go to there admin under styles and go to edit template and select the navbar template. You simply add some html like this in there near the faq reference. Our course replace with your correct url etc
