Ok, I am not getting this. I researched this issue in the forums and its saying that I have a path problem in the config file. Here is the error:

Warning: chdir() [function.chdir]: No such file or directory (errno 2) in /home/content/29/4805029/html/links/links_global.php on line 38

Here is what forumpath says I have:

/var/chroot/home/content/29/4805029/html - we drop the /var/chroot and go with the rest. My forum is under the community subdirectory, so it would be /home/content/29/4805029/html/community, but for the life of me I keep getting errors.

It's probably something straight forward, but what am I missing here?

ETA: I guess I should include all the error messages I am getting:


Warning: chdir() [function.chdir]: No such file or directory (errno 2) in /home/content/29/4805029/html/links/links_global.php on line 38

Warning: require_once(./global.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/29/4805029/html/links/links_global.php on line 40

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required './global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php') in /home/content/29/4805029/html/links/links_global.php on line 40

Did you get this fixed? I'm not seeing any errors on the wyellow.com site unless this is for a different site.

Not sure what you are seeing Chimpie, but www.wyellow.com/links will get you the errors ... unless my firefox install is out in space or something it's not working yet for me.

Okay.. since you never posted a link in the original post I (we) couldn't see where the problem was occurring.

Did you edit your links_config.php file to add the forum path?

Yes, I have /home/content/29/4805029/html/community

I have also tried /var/chroot/home/content/29/4805029/html/community

I dont know if this matters, but I have the links directory set above the forum directory, i.e.,

/html/links and the forum at /html/community

It should be the same path used during your vBa installation.

It should be the same path used during your vBa installation.

Here is what I did and for whatever reason it worked:

the config file lines all ran together. I opened the file in wordpad, and it opened up and looked like a normal file with all the lines of code nice and neat and running top to bottom in an orderly manner. I then inserted the same forum path I had been trying to use, saved in text format and re-uploaded to the site.

Net result was it all works now. In my instance, it appears that the config file was corrupted during upload and it was just a matter of formatting it correctly. <shrug> Why or how I do not know or comprehend, it all works now.

Thanks Chimpie for the help.
