Error after brand new installation (vB and Photopost Pro)

Exilera · October 10th, 2006, 10:53 AM

Fresh install of vB, fresh install of Photopost pro. The install script runs just fine, but I get the following error when going to www.swingdc.org/photopost

Warning: require(./global.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/ennergi/public_html/photopost/header- inc.php on line 65

Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required './global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/php5-fcgi/lib/php') in /home/ennergi/public_html/photopost/header-inc.php on line 65

The path /home/ennergi/public_html/photopost/ is the correct path to the photopost directory. I can go to http://www.swingdc.org/photopost/adm-index.php and it gives me a login screen, but trying to log in or register brings back a "Page can not be found" error.

Hello

In the install last step the correct vbulletin path was not entered edit your config-int.php file and in the $vbpath line place the correct server path to vbulletin

$vbpath = "/home/ennergi/public_html";

Thanks Chuck, I'll make that change. Quick question; is there a way to edit a .php file aside from FTPing to the server and making the change that way? I don't have FTP access within my work's network...

You need some sort of access to the file to edit it whether ftp or control panel file access

That didn't work. Still returns the following error.

Warning: require(./global.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/ennergi/public_html/photopost/header-inc.php on line 65

Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required './global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/php5-fcgi/lib/php') in /home/ennergi/public_html/photopost/header-inc.php on line 65

Please help... It hasn't been working for the past 2 days now.

I'm using the php5 version of vBulletin and MySQLi. Is there any incompatability with all the vB files being .php5 and the Photopost Pro files being .php?

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

That is the code there where your error is and that tells me your vbulletin server path is incorrect.

I changed the path to exactly what you said I should... Here's a copy of what's in the config-int.php file:

// We need to know the server paths to both your vB installation and your PhotoPost installation
$vbpath = "/home/ennergi/public_html";
$pppath = "/home/ennergi/public_html/photopost";

That seems correct?

I think, the problem may be that it's looking for global.php, yet all of the vB files have the .php5 extension... how could I get Photopost to see all .php files as .php5 (or is it visa versa? heh...)

Chuck S · October 10th, 2006, 08:02 PM

why do your php files have that extension? They should not have to have that extension. You can edit header-inc.php and change the require lines as yes we look for php files not php5

Exilera · October 10th, 2006, 08:04 PM

It's the php5 version of vBulletin. All of the vB files end in .php5. I tried to edit that file and change global.php to global.php5 but I get the same error...

Chuck S · October 10th, 2006, 09:20 PM

If you changed the require line to global.php5 then the only other issue could be your path is incorrect

Well, that's the path you gave me, and that's what the host said the path to the root is... I don't see how it could be wrong?

Anyone have any other suggestions? It's been about 3 days now since I purchased Photopost and I still haven't been able to get it to work.

Its not path to root its path to vbulletin.

What happens if you use vbulletin without the php5 files?

Sorry this same question is in two different threads.

I installed vB with the normal .php files and I still got a memory error, just referenced a different file, but the same error. I installed the .php5 version of vBulletin and now I'm getting the same thing.

Chuck S · October 11th, 2006, 10:13 AM

yes I just saw you posted two identical threads about this issue
