server changed hard drive - now error - Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream:
 

so when we click on the arcade link in the nav bar, we get:

Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0

Fatal error: Unknown: Failed opening required '/home/jilly/public_html/forums/arcade.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in Unknown on line 0


I am using VB 3.8.1
and when I click on Arcade Main Settings in the admin section, I get:

Warning: require(./arcade/functions/functions.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in [path]/admincp/arcade.php on line 37

Warning: require(./arcade/functions/functions.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in [path]/admincp/arcade.php on line 37

Okay, just to be sure I had the latest version, I redownloaded the arcade, reuploaded it and reinstalled so i am using 2.7.2 - now the error from the nav bar remains the same,
Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0

Fatal error: Unknown: Failed opening required '/home/jilly/public_html/forums/arcade.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in Unknown on line 0

and if i hit arcade main settings in admincp, i get:

Warning: opendir(./arcade/lang) [function.opendir]: failed to open dir: Permission denied in [path]/admincp/arcade.php on line 655

Warning: readdir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in [path]/admincp/arcade.php on line 657

Warning: closedir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in [path]/admincp/arcade.php on line 681

Ensure the files are readable by the webserver. If PHP is running as an Apache module, it'll be running under the same user Apache is (usually "nobody").

Thank you thunderbird, i told my web host this, and that's what it needed! Now it works!!

thanks for helping out..
wish more can get in volved.. :up:
