Hi I am having problems installing the phpbb plugin, when I click install from my geeklog I get this error;
Text Formatted Code
Warning: main(extension.inc): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/british1/public_html/v2/plugins/phpbbbridge/functions.inc on line 72

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'extension.inc' (include_path='/home/british1/public_html/v2/system/pear/:.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/british1/public_html/v2/plugins/phpbbbridge/functions.inc on line 72

Your path_to_phpbb in your phpbbbridge config.php is incorrect.

Hi Turias, am not sure what the path should be, I am used to using the phpbb forum but not inconjuction with your portal system.

This is the path I used


Text Formatted Code
<?php

$_PHPBBB_CONF['path_to_phpbb']     = '//public_html/V1.5/';           // Should end in a slash
$_PHPBBB_CONF['phpbb_url']         = 'http://www.british-birds-in-aviculture.info/V1.5/britishbird_forum';  // Should not end in a slash
$_PHPBBB_CONF['show_left_blocks']  = true;
$_PHPBBB_CONF['show_right_blocks'] = false;

$_PHPBBB_CONF['sideblock_num_topics'] = 5;
$_PHPBBB_CONF['sideblock_subject_limit'] = 60;

$_PHPBBB_CONF['show_centerblock'] = true;
$_PHPBBB_CONF['centerblock_num_topics'] = 10;
$_PHPBBB_CONF['centerblock_subject_limit'] = 40;
$_PHPBBB_CONF['centerblock_homepage_only'] = true;
$_PHPBBB_CONF['centerblock_after_featured'] = true;

$_PHPBBB_CONF['version'] = 1.0;

?>

The V1.5 is geeklog and the britishbird_forum is phpbb

//public_html/V1.5/

doesn't look good to me. Is this through a hosting provider or on your own machine? If it is the former, they should be able to help you with paths.

Right, that path looks completely wrong. Something like "/home/karl/www/forum/" would look much nicer. As I don't know what your directory structure looks like, I can't tell you what you should enter for your paths. However, they should probably be very similar to the paths in your geeklog/config.php.
