Permissions Issue

StreamerWI · July 3rd, 2006, 01:44 PM

Hello,

I am trying to install and am having a permissions issue.

"We're sorry, but we encountered an error during the installation process...

Unable to create/write to http://www.sportdish.com/www/bin/data! Check your data directory permissions before continuing.

When you have fixed your permissions Refresh this page to try again.

If you have corrected the error, you may hit GO BACK and try again. "

I have done the CHMOD of 777 for Data, 1, and 2. As I read elsewhere, I tried running with a 755 CHMOD as well. No Luck.

Any suggestions?

Hello you need to chmod the uploads and data directories at every level to 777 not just the top levels.

StreamerWI · July 3rd, 2006, 08:37 PM

I did. I've tried a couple of times to all the directories and files in them. And reinstalling a number of times. Still no luck.

If I look at your site the data directories have not been set at every level to 777

My bad, I didn't realize I had to CHMOD the overall script directory. That works now, but I have another problem.

"Warning: mysql_fetch_row(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /mounted-storage/home21a/sub003/sc21064-GTAG/www/bin/forums/phpbb2.php on line 308" comes up when I go to adm-index.php. I really have no idea what this means, but I assume it is not good.

Thanks!

what version of phpbb2 are you running is it 2.018 or above?

StreamerWI · July 4th, 2006, 11:12 AM

2.0.21 Is that a problem?

Chuck S · July 4th, 2006, 11:46 AM

Should not be that I am aware. I have installed on that with no issue.

Did you specify the proper database table for phpbb in the photopost install?

Is the user database filled out with the information for the phpbb forum?

Chuck S · July 4th, 2006, 11:48 AM

I just realized also your posting about reviewpost in the classifieds forum so I am moving this but this is the query your failing on

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

StreamerWI · July 4th, 2006, 12:43 PM

As far as I can tell everything is filled out properly. I tried reinstalling again to see if I had some variables wrong, but I get the same error

Is there a config_value field with the config_name of default style in your phpbb_config table?

Yes, in my phpbb database I have config_name and config_value listed under the hockey_config table.

Chuck S · July 4th, 2006, 03:33 PM

Right but is there a config_name with the name default style??

That query is failing so what is it failing on. Try running this query in phpmyadmin and see what it tells you

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

StreamerWI · July 4th, 2006, 04:11 PM

I beleive so. Here is a result of the query:

Showing rows 0 - 0 (1 total, Query took 0.0399 sec)SQL query:SELECT config_value
FROM hockey_config
WHERE config_name = 'default_style'
LIMIT 0 , 30

Chuck S · July 4th, 2006, 04:54 PM

There should be a listing that is returned.

StreamerWI · July 4th, 2006, 05:07 PM

what do you mean by listing?

When i ran the query, this is what showed up:
SELECT config_value
FROM hockey_config
WHERE config_name = 'default_style'
LIMIT 0 , 30

Chuck S · July 4th, 2006, 05:25 PM

Right and there should be a result returned and your not returning one are you?

Thus as I ask is there a config_name of default_style in the config table and your telling me no right?

StreamerWI · July 4th, 2006, 05:36 PM

When I run the query, this is the result:

SELECT config_value
FROM hockey_config
WHERE config_name = 'default_style'
LIMIT 0 , 30

Unless I am reading the output wrong, but I am pretty sure that is what is coming out as the result.

Chuck S · July 4th, 2006, 06:19 PM

Nope if you run the query there should be a result returned if something existed.

Your not returning any results which means config_name of default_style does not exist so what field in 2.021 now holds the default style? You might want to ask over at phpbb incase they changed something.

StreamerWI · July 4th, 2006, 09:56 PM

Ok, I got that fixed.

I'm sure you'd like to strangle me by now, but I have another issue. When I log into the adm-index.php I only get the right frame showing:
Reviewpost Administration

Strange enough I would imagine I am supposed to see a bit more, like a navigation page in the left column frame. Any suggestions?

Thanks!
