Chat - Not working - Please Help

[ramesh_g75]

Hi,

Today i installed "phpfreechat-1.0-beta11" in my IIS 5.2.
My PHP version is 5.2.3.

The installation steps went fine and i was able to install it successfully.

But when i browsed the chat app, say "http://localhost/phpfreechat/"
it always showed this message
"Chat loading ...
Please wait"

What might be the problem?

- Thanks
Ramesh

Hi there,
Is there any link which i can use to access the chat page. It is very hard to find out otherwise as it can be many things causing the problem.

Try to check your paths, if they are correct, if you're getting any javascript error, then your client_script_path is not correct.

Mainly, these params should be set right to show the chat:
$params["data_public_path"] ,
$params["data_public_url"] ,
$params["server_script_path"],
$params["server_script_url"] ,
$params["client_script_path"],


try putting in the following debug code in your chat page to see what you pfc configration is like, this will help u to debug:

Code: Select all

echo "<h2>Debug</h2>";
  echo "<pre>";
  $c =& pfcGlobalConfig::Instance();
  print_r($c);
  print_r($_SERVER);
  echo "</pre>";

Please provide more info.

Cheers!!!

hi, nsj

I have a serious problem with betaX... I was using beta11 everything was fine but one day it suddenly stopped... I also tried previous versions and they did not work too...

For example beta6 check this http://www.okuogren.com/beta6/

Error: the chat cannot be loaded! two possibilities: your browser doesn't support javascript or you didn't setup correctly the server directories rights - don't hesitate to ask some help on the forum www.phpfreechat.net/forum

this is the error...

could you give me directory params pls, you see beta6 is the name of the main dir.
thanks a lot

I am having the same problem.

What should my client_script_path be? Relative to what? Can someone post an example?

I understand I need to change the configurations (and I assume I do that in my chat's php file), but I'm not sure what I need to change them to.

Thanks
