Sub Directory Problem

Posted: Mon Jan 05, 2004 3:37 am

I have installed KISGB and it works fine when I have it in the root directory but if I have it in a sub directory I get the following message on the screen

Quote:

logs/kisgb.log.php

This presumably is something to do with directory paths but I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.

I am not running it in tables or anything else (yet) just trying to get it to work from a sub directory.

Has anyone else had this problem or know what I am doing wrong?

I have it in a subdirectory, as do many, and do not receive this. Please send me your url and also email me your zipped user.prefs.php file.

I have it on my local server at the moment so I cannot send the url and I am using the standard user.prefs.php file.

Then I would suggest a reinstall. As I said, I have never heard of this, and w/o being able to look at it on your server I can't be of much help. You might try changing the setting $root_document = "index.php"; to reflect the subdirectory, like $root_document = "subdirectory/kisgb/index.php";but that's just a suggestion and I don't think that's your problem.

I have just reinstalled and it now works fine. I think that I may have had a corrupt user.prefs.php file but I am not sure. Would that have created that type of error?

Yes. If you had a syntax error, then the file would not be read in correctly and would throw the php code off. You said you were using the standard user.prefs.php file so I assumed you had not made any changes. Often times users have errors in the $guest_email_msg setting.
