phpbb integration

[OldWolf]

Is this really the path? The capital S in there looks suspicious to me, wondering if you were trying to do a control + s to save?

$phpbb_root_path = '../'.Sphpbb_folder_name.'/'; // adjust this path to your forum installation root

Yes OldWolf you found a typo, sorry.
When I fix the typo, however, I have the same problem.

Code: Select all

  $phpbb_folder_name = 'NZMotorhomeForum';
  $phpfreechat_folder_name = 'NZMotorhomeChat';
 
  $phpbb_root_path = '../'.$phpbb_folder_name.'/'; // adjust this path to your forum installation root/
  include( $phpbb_root_path . 'extension.inc' );
  include( $phpbb_root_path . 'common.' . $phpEx );
 
  $userdata = session_pagestart($user_ip, PAGE_INDEX);
  init_userprefs($userdata);

with errors as follow:

Code: Select all

Warning: include(../NZMotorhomeForum/extension.inc) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in D:xampphtdocsNZMotorhomeChatchat.php on line 8

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening '../NZMotorhomeForum/extension.inc' for inclusion (include_path='.;D:xamppphppear') in D:xampphtdocsNZMotorhomeChatchat.php on line 8

Fatal error: Call to undefined function session_pagestart() in D:xampphtdocsNZMotorhomeChatchat.php on line 11

It is suggesting that it is looking for a "file or directory" in the Chat.php file. Is that as it should be?
Otherwise, any help will be received gratefully.
Thanks

Without knowing your file structure, it's difficult to say what the problem is. Double check that your paths are correct from the file that's calling them (so if your accessing www.example.com/path/file.php, the paths need to be from that file.php). Sorry I can't offer a more specific solution.

I gave my directory structure in my initial post

I'm testing locally and have directly under .htdocs
NZMotorhomeForum - which is the root folder for the forum and
NZMotorhomeChat - the phpFreeChat folder

You say

Double check that your paths are correct

Can you tell me how to get to view the result of $phpbb_root_path so that I can check, please?
Thanks

You could try echoing it:-

Code: Select all

echo $phpbb_root_path;

[MarkHoward]

Thanks, I'll try that.
