freakingout
Hi,
I installed this pgeeklog locally, it works great had minor issues but coul work through them with help from your end. however, i am trying to put it remotely via ftp and i got there with no problem.
I have two directories, as I do locally one holds the public stuff abe the other the geeklog stuff. same as my local set-up.
db-config is in the geeklog directory.
I am able to get the install.php up, now here is the problem, i can not get it to find the path to db-config. no matter what path i try it can not be found. I had no problem installing it locally like this and I about ready to snap.

/mom/db-config.php
/root/mom/db-config
/hrml/root/db-config
/db-config

you name it i have tried it.

any help appreciated, yes i added .php to the end of the string.

Thanks

I would expect your typical path to be much longer than that. Often something beginning with /www/usr/ or something like that

Check with your hosting service if you don't know the full path on the webserver.

it is godaddy
root/html/mom/db-congif.php

if the path is correct, install script should pick it up, correct?
i should not have to change in thing in config script should i?

That path should probably start with a /. And yes, you don't need to change anything in any files (the install script will do that for you).

bye, Dirk
