hi,
updated and running fine. runs on php5.2.2 no problems.

Yup, all seems to be there fine.......I have installed the aiml files into the database as well.

I have added him to a testing forum section but he only ever says "I was not able to connect to my database. Please try again later." to every single statement. What exactly makes him say that? I can see that it is in the ewt_talkerbot file, but this comment is said when he cant access the database or what?

Cheers for the help.

I am getting the same exact message from the bot...

"I was not able to connect to my database. Please try again later."

all the bot will say to me... any ideas on how to fix this or where to look for this...

Would really like to get this running right =]

thanks.

I re-uploaded the files, re-imported the xml and it still gives me this error :(

please help - we love the bot and don't want to lose him :(

I also had this problem and the same error when I installed it tonight , the problem was simply I installed it in to the wrong directory. My forum is www.austech.info , not www.austech.info/forums.
I installed it in to a old folder called forum which I used to run before I got a dedicated server , so I would say you havent installed it to your actual root directory. Re-check where you have actually installed it.

Yea the alice folder must be uploaded into your forums directory what ever you may have named it. :)

YES my bot reply there but in my forum he said:

"I was not able to connect to my database. Please try again later."

and i got this error after i aswer to the bot:

Warnung: file_get_contents(): URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /ewt_talkerbot.php (Zeile 53)

can you help me pls?

Your server configuration doesnt allow the 2.5 version of the bot to run on it.

thx 4 answer tim, wich server configuration i need to run it correctly?

When I go to http://pathtoyourforums.com/alice/sr...t=How+are+you?

changing the path to mine...I get nothing but a blank screen.

cheers
