install complete but no vBadvanced

[YSR50]

I uploaded all files and ran the installer (cmps_2_0_rc1) with no problems, but nothing works. Nothing new in Admin CP and when I go to www.zx-10r.net/cmps_index.php I get the following

Warning: chdir(): Not a directory (errno 20) in /home/httpd/vhosts/zx-10r.net/httpdocs/cmps_index.php on line 22

Warning: main(./global.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/httpd/vhosts/zx-10r.net/httpdocs/cmps_index.php on line 33

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required './global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear') in /home/httpd/vhosts/zx-10r.net/httpdocs/cmps_index.php on line 33


I'm a total newbie so any detailed help would be great

TIA

first, open up your cmps_index.php, and where it asks for chdir, enter the full path to your forums, that should get rid of that error.

Sounds like you didn't follow the installation instructions in the readme.html file if you're not seeing anything in your admin cp.

:D great, thanks that worked. My mistake was when I was going step by step through the installation instructions in the readme.html file, that I copied the entire path from the info.php file that I made, including the /info.php :o :rolleyes:

Now I need to figure out how to get to the CP? It would have been nice to get some kind of help on this, after all, someone took the time to basically post a useless reply. Instead maybe they could have given me an idea of what I did wrong. It's not like I came in here saying that the files suck, I came in and said that I'm a newbie and need help.

Maybe someone else has some ideas for me. Should I uninstall and start over?

TIA

well I found my mistake number two. For some reason I must not have saved the /forum/admincp/index.php file after making the change from the Readme. So now I have a vBa CMPS section in my AdminCP.

now I need to find my third mistake. I don't have a new group in my Style Manager for my new vBadvanced CMPS templates. I double checked my /forum/includes/adminfunctions_template.php file and everything looks right so I'm guessing my mistake is somewhere else.

I double checked my /forum/includes/adminfunctions_template.php file and everything looks right so I'm guessing my mistake is somewhere else.Did you do the optional changes to adminfunctions_template.php? It's the second part of Step #2.

I'm not sure if I'll ever use it, (it's so you can create styles just for the cmps pages right?), but I would like to figure out what I did wrong.

Doh! I guess it's worked all along. For some reason I thought it was going to get a new group on the main Styles page :o sorry to bother you and thanks for your time and help
