i've been looking for any related topics to solve my problem but nothing came out.
so here's my problem hopefully you guys can help me
when i click Forums module on my administration menu i get
You don't have permission to access /xxx/modules/Forums/admin/index.php on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
All modules works fine except this Forums module
any ideas?
THANKS |

Make sure that index.php file in /xxx/modules/Forums/admin/index.php really does exist.
Make sure that the folder and file permissions are correct. The admin folder should be 755 and index.php should be 644.
It sounds like it may be a path error. Use phpMyAdmin an look at the $prefix_bbconfig table and see if all of the settings look correct. These would be the ones to look closely:
server_name & script_path
The server_name should be your url to your home page without the If your url is then server_name should be xxx.yyyyyyy.zzz. If your url is then server_name should be xxx.yyyyyyy.zzz/nuke.
Using the url examples above, your script_path should be /modules/Forums or /nuke/modules/Forums. |
