okay, u've confused me even more now with the wwwroot and whatnot but thanx anyway. I just created a folder called attachments in my forums folder, like forums/attachments/ and chmoded to 777, is that wat ur suppose to do? I dont' see any httpdocs, wwwroot, www or public_html folders. I MUST have this hack!

Vivi ... the quote above comes directly from PPN's install file, didn't mean to confuse you more. I suppose creating forums/attachments will work but notice in the quote above we're advised to give the directory a more obscure name (if going that way). I'm hardly an expert at this and am having a few problems getting this hack to work myself. Perhaps someone else may be able to give you more helpful support. Good Luck.

the thing is it won't even run period, all i want is someone to write like a text file of the hack with like the mysql queries in it so it makes my life all the much easier! :D

Hi PPN ... I don't mean to be a pest ... but any progress on how I can resolve my issues with this hack?

Thanks,

Destee

Destee, i've looked over the hack and the only thing which will return those problems are that the directory itself doesn't exist, ie you have the path wrong, or php doesn't have access to that folder, in other words that the users are different.

Oh Boy! Oh Boy! Oh Boy! :D Thank You PPN for directing me in the right way! It's working now! The problem was exactly as you described, php didn't have access to that folder! I moved my "attachments" folder to the root directory and everything is working properly now!!!! Oh Boy! Thank You! :)

ps ... I just went back and did the import step included in this hack and it worked too ... with no errors! Thanks again! :)

no problem :P

Sorry it took so long, it was just a rather odd error :)

If you are having an error uploading the attachment_install.php file then please do the following, check that you uploaded the file in ASCII and that ?> is at the end of the file. Its been clipped for some people.

YAYAYAYA it works!! that's all u needed to write actually! ?>

for some reason it shows on mine though, thats now 3 people that have had the end tag clipped from the file.
