And regarding your last question, yes it can work even if you have users on your forum already, but you wont be able to sync forum users into your adoptables site. The trick here is to go to phpmyadmin and change the auto_increment ID to be identical from your adoptables and forum's table prefix.users. The User ID must match from one database to another. |
back with yet another question lol. I'm not sure if this is mysidia relate of phpbb related but here it goes.
I am trying to upload my phpbb forum to the server. I got the files in the thing and the link is: http://chibifurs.com/forum/phpbb/ I am getting the error: Fatal Error: Class ForumController either does not exist, or has its include path misconfigured! I am unable to install it due to this error. Anything you might suggest? |
You need a .htaccess file for your forum directory. If phpbb has one, upload it. Otherwise, simply upload the .htaccess file inside folder /install from mysidia adoptables.
|
Okay that did get me a step further but brought up a different error, this time from firefox (my browser)
------------- The page isn't redirecting properly Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies. -------------- I have cookies to always accept. |
You have corrupted cookies or cache, empty them and it should work for you then.
|
I cleared both and it's still coming up.
|
umm this is weird, but would you mind telling me why your directory /forum/phpbb? I thought phpbb and forum are the same thing? Anyway, does PHP come with a .htaccess file? If so, you need to upload that file. Sometimes its in .txt format, you need to change it to htaccess format instead.
|
That was just to test somethis. the old forum had been forum/upload and I didn't know if it had been the second location making the difference. obviously not but hey, it was worth a shot xD.
it does and it's in there in the htaccess format. |
Well if it is in .htaccess format the forum should work for you perfectly. Are you sure it is not in .txt format, since some internat applications' .htaccess files do appear this way? Anyway you should upload the folder /upload to your root directory and rename it as forum rather than upload the entire folder of phpbb to your server with a subdirectory called /upload.
|
Okay.....well phpBB folks say its something to do with Mysidia and we're running around in circles over here....If I PM yo uthe information, would you log in to our panel and see if you can find whats wrong? I'm thinking the problem at the moment may be that I don't know what I'm looking for. (Sometimes a second pair of eyes picks up what the first didn't)
|
Well the best idea is to install PHPBB in a different directory rather than in a subdirectory of Mysidia, this will completely get rid of any possible .htaccess issues. Anyway, MyBB seems to work fine with Mysidia so long as its own .htaccess file is uploaded properly, not sure why PHPBB has this problem. Yes you can send me your login credentials, I will see what I can do to help you.
|
Thanks hun. I'll send you the stuff over in a PM. Where do you think I should upload the new directory once you're done peaking around?
|
Id say uploading the folder /upload to the root directory and rename it as /forum, but anyway I will see how it works. If you've installed the adoptables script in the root directory, it can be a bit tricky.
|
Okay. I want to make sure I've got a handle on this before I do it. Wat if we did it like this:
Install Mysidia in a folder such as /adopts (or something like that) Then install the forum in a folder such as /forum (replied to PM) |
Then you wont have url redirect problem between the two applications. As a folder inside the mysidia directory is considered a subdirectory inside the script, you will need a proper .htaccess to change the url redirect settings in each directory.
|
Okay. I'm going to go ahead and remove all the existing files and upload like that. Wish me luck!
|
Okay. we through a new installation with mysidia at chibifurs.com/home. went though the whole thing and got the following error when it was completed on the new main page.
Warning: require(/home/chibifur/public_html/inc/smarty/Smarty.class.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/chibifur/public_html/home/classes/class_mysidia.php on line 323 Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/chibifur/public_html/inc/smarty/Smarty.class.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/chibifur/public_html/home/classes/class_mysidia.php on line 323 |
Looks like your script path is incorrect.
|
Okay. Any ideas on how to fix it?
|
Open your config.php and change the value in script path constant.
|
okay this is what I have my config file saying, errors still coming up:
<?php //Mysidia Adoptables Site Configuration File define('DBHOST', 'localhost'); //DB Hostname define('DBUSER', 'chibifur_riley'); //DB Username define('DBPASS', '(i removed the password)'); //DB Password define('DBNAME', 'chibifur_adopts'); //Your database name define('DOMAIN', 'chibifurs.com'); //Your domain name (No http, www or . ) define('SCRIPTPATH', 'home'); //The folder you installed this script in define('PREFIX', 'adopts_prefix'); ?> |
It appears that you are missing a "/" in your script path, I fixed this for you already.
|
thank you so much. now to hopefully get the forum online ^^
|
Got the forum up (yay!) but is phpbb3 eligable for integration?
|
Well of course its possible to integrate, but only MyBB is officially supported. You can always give a try integrating your forum and the adoptables site yourself, with a tiny bit of coding you can even get VBulletin and IPB to work.
|
I shall give it a whirl and see how it turns out! Hopefully I won't be back lol
|
Oh dont worry, I am glad to see users back with questions and suggestions. Think how boring it will be if everyone just downloads the script and never comes to the support forum at all. XD
|
lol that's so true. I'm usually around if you want to chat <3
Okay I see that the sidebar links were changed. I used to be able to go into function.php and change the links in the sidebar so that they show up as images instead of text. is there any way to do that now? |
I've been attempting to drag myself out of my hole and restart RFTW; I updated the new site but I'm getting the following error on all pages;
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'SmartyException' with message 'Unable to load template file 'template.tpl'' in /home/ratties/public_html/inc/smarty/sysplugins/smarty_internal_templatebase.php:127 Stack trace: #0 /home/ratties/public_html/inc/smarty/sysplugins/smarty_internal_templatebase.php(374): Smarty_Internal_TemplateBase->fetch('template.tpl', NULL, NULL, NULL, true) #1 /home/ratties/public_html/classes/class_frame.php(226): Smarty_Internal_TemplateBase->display('template.tpl') #2 /home/ratties/public_html/classes/class_mysidia.php(449): Frame->render() #3 /home/ratties/public_html/index.php(86): Mysidia->output() #4 /home/ratties/public_html/index.php(90): IndexController::main() #5 {main} thrown in /home/ratties/public_html/inc/smarty/sysplugins/smarty_internal_templatebase.php on line 127 I did have a custom theme, so I changed my options in the database to one of the main ones, but I'm still getting it. |
Check if you have the template file template.tpl in the theme's folder. If not, you need to create one.
|
Each theme folder has a template.tpl file - "new" didn't have one, but I copied one over, with no results. I was using main however.
http://rattiesftw.com/ site if you can pick up the problem? |
I see, did you 'install' the theme from ACP? If not, you will need to do this. An alternative way is to insert a row into your database prefix.themes to match the folder name for 'themefolder' and 'themeurl'.
|
I did install the theme in the database quite a while ago and I just checked now, it is still there.
|
umm i see... Are you sure you tried to upgrade by uploading all necessary files from Mys v1.3.3? No file is missing? If so, perhaps the folder structure of your templates folder has some issues, or the settings of the template? Anyway, PM me your ftp and I will see what I can do for you. Its weird how the main theme aint working for you either.
|
I did the same thing I did every time I upgrade - ftp'd in, dragged over the files and hit "overwrite". It has worked before.
I'll pm you the details. |
Gloometh! Welcome back!
Famer, were you able to look at the imges for links thing I posted on the last page? |

Hey HoF, just letting you know that I went ahead and finally tried the HTML links again and it worked out this time around perfectly :)
|
Thats so good to know Iris, glad it works for ya. With the new SEO friendly URL, it is a good practice not to use relative url since it may direct you to weird locations that do not even exist. To fix the problem, use absolute url. XD
