Running the installer multiple times shouldn't cause this, since TECK has made a check to see if vbHome is already installed...

Yes I have done all that! Still nothing.


-WoodiE

I swear this thing is annoying as hell. I just uninstalled the script, and received a database error so i ran the uninstall again and it said it finished.

After that I ran the install and all looked good, it created the templates, then after that i clicked on continue from there i get yet ANOTHER database error:

"Database error in vBulletin Control Panel 2.2.6:

Invalid SQL: INSERT INTO settinggroup VALUES (99,'vbHome Page','99')
mysql error: Duplicate entry '99' for key 1

mysql error number: 1062

Anyone know what the heck is up?

is because you ran several times the uninstall-install process, before you completed all hacking steps. that's why the errors occur, it's not the first time people have problems like that.
to solve your prob, do these steps:

1. run the uninstall. when you get the database error, press F5 (refresh).

2. in your browser url bar, replace the vbhlinstall.php part with setting.php and hit enter.

3. on the new loaded page, scroll down and at the bottom you will see the vbHome page settings:
vbHome Page [edit] [remove] [add setting]
click on remove and confirm the removal.

4. make sure you completed all hacking steps.

5. run the installer again. you are done.

Does anyone have a modified index page they would allow me to use? I installed this hack, but I want to change it to something other then the plain jane version is looks like now. I know very little about HTML and template modification. Please PM me if you can help. Thanks in advance.

Teck,

Uninstall says:

YOU MUST REVERT TO ORIGINAL YOUR vbHome (lite) TEMPLATES BEFORE YOU PROCEED!!!

What exactly does "revert to original" entail?

I need to know the steps.

<i>bbcode [edit] [revert to original] [view original]</i>

Thanks, helps to know that. Do I have to do this to each of the templates in "Home Page Templates?"

Also, without changing a thing, I just tried to run this in my browser once again, just for the heck of it, and came up with a whole new error message:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_bbarraycookie() in /home/mysite/public_html/index.php on line 163

What's that about?

ya you have to do it for each vbHome template you changed.

you played with the file. that's why. :)

How did I play with the file? I didn't touch anything.
