absolute path problem

« on: February 18, 2006, 11:27:49 PM »

step by step it seems i've done everything right so far. i've searched the forum too and the solutions i see worked for others but for some reason not for me..i'm quite the newbie by the way...joomla's all new to me.

the forum is on the same database...
http://www.fuzion-entertainment.com/main/forum/
works just fine

everything i could think of has a chmod of 777(reading that some files needed to be set to that)

so i don't know what i'm doing wrong..the only difference i see from others and is that the forum is not at the public_html/ folder..i'm not familiar with phpBB2 either so i'm not too sure if i move the whole folder will it mess up the site?

SMF Absolute Path:/home/hfuzio28/public_html/main/forum
(incorrect path)
SMF Database Prefix: smf_

installed    Install SMF Forum on the same database as Joomla.
click to patch    Patch Joomla Source Files. tooltip
click to patch    Patch SMF Source Files (Note: Unpatch before upgrading SMF or installing mod.) tooltip
done [verify]    Synchronize Joomla and SMF users (optional).

Maybe try dropping the forward slash before home.

/home/users/s/scor/docs/

i print:
/home/users/s/scor/docs/forum

it says that "(incorrect path)"

i see on ftp thath this path is absolutely correct!

i tried to follow your advise and print:
\/home\/users\/s\/scor\/docs\/forum

In the folder where you have the SMF installed, create this little php file
(lets call it mypath.php Cheesy

)

Code:

<?php
echo getcwd();
?>

execute it with your browser:

www.mysite.com/smf/mypath.php

it will then display the true (server based) path to the directory where that PHP file is.
