During Install: "build datastore" error (fatal)

[seangworld]

this is the error i get, during install (clean):

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: build_datastore() in /home/www/seangworld/vbulletin/admincp/vbacmps_install.php on line 1353

[seangworld]

you shouldn't screw anything up... if everything is in the admincp I'd say that it's installed..don't quote me on that cuzzzzz I don't know everything about it just trying to help....;)

[seangworld]

actually, i just tried to edit the settings and i got another fatal error in that same thing but on line 49.

im going to check the chmod.

[seangworld]

nope, still doesnt work.

[seangworld]

i uninstalled this, reinstalled it 2x. i still get stuck at the same spot dealing with line 1353 and the build datastore fatal error thing.

is anyone gonna seriously help me with this, or at least point me to a thread that has already covered this? i did a couple of searches and don't see it.

Hey seangworld try posting a trouble ticket so Brian can have a look..It may take him a bit but he'll get to it and tell you the problem. Sorry I can't be of more help..I'm just learning this stuff as well...;) Trouble Tickets are in the members area...

Sounds like you're running a beta version of vBulletin.

[seangworld]

it's 3.0.0 RC2.

I could have swore that function was in the RC versions, but I guess not. If you'll open the install file and look for this line (right near the top of the file):

$scriptname = 'CMPS';

Then add this code right above that:


function build_datastore($title = '', $data = '')
{
global $DB_site;
if ($title != '')
{
$DB_site->query("
REPLACE INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "datastore
(title, data)
VALUES
('" . addslashes(trim($title)) . "', '" . addslashes(trim($data)) . "')
");
}
}


That will place the function in that file and should allow you to finish the install. You'll also want to add that function to your vba_cmp_admin.php file as it uses that function in a couple of places as well.

ok thanks. i'll go reinstall it. i was trying out that vbindex crap and well...it was the easiest frickin install, but it doesnt have as much to offer as cpms has.

i'll post back what happens.

[seangworld]

ok, worked perfectly. im back in business, THANKS BRIAN!

[seangworld]

ACTUALLY, i take that back...now when i set the settings under "default settings", i hit save and i get:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: build_datastore() in /home/www/seangworld/vbulletin/admincp/vba_cmps_admin.php on line 49

[seangworld]

try and take a look at what i got going...i cant figure it out.

[seangworld]

lol, im funny, and lucky i guess.

what i did was i opened up that cmps admin page, went to line 49. at the beginning of THAT section, i dropped in that same exact code you gave me and it worked. lol

[mholtum]

you should upgrade your VB to 3.0.1. and edit your image paths in admincp

[seangworld]

that's what im trying to figure out right now. and i can't upgrade right now cuz i haven't paid for my yearly thing. i just own the lease, don't have the ability to upgrade right now. im trying to figure out why my images aren't working. when i goto the icon manager, then edit, the urls are correct, but when i goto my index.php page, i right click the images and it's missing "/vbulletin" where else am i supposed to look?

[seangworld]

ok, im good to go. thanks for the help!
