phpBBBridge Install problem
I search the forum here and couldn't find this problem listed so I hope I'm not treading on a previous thread. If so I apologize.
I have the most current version of Geeklog and phpBBBridge. I followed the instructions for phpBBBridge exactly, modifying the proper config files and such. I get to the installation script of phpBB2, plunk in all the info, and it says the database has been created.
All seems good.
Click on the Finish Install button when I get this error:
Warning: main(../public_html/lib-common.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/mbuhmann/public_html/phpBB2/common.php on line 232
I've tried /home/public_html/phpBB2 and /public_html/phpBB2/ and ../public_html/phpBB2/ as paths to the forum yet none work.
Any idea what's wrong?

I think the incorrect path is the one in your phpBB2/geeklog.inc file. Make sure it points at your geeklog public_html directory.

Here is the line as it currently is in the .inc file:
$phpbbb_geeklog_public_html_dir = "/public_html/"; // Should end in a slash
This is where I've tried "../public_html/" and "/home/public_html"
Any other ideas?
$phpbbb_geeklog_public_html_dir = "/public_html/"; // Should end in a slash
This is where I've tried "../public_html/" and "/home/public_html"
Any other ideas?
