I think you uploaded the files in the wrong dir, or imported shit wrong. Reinstall the chat from the admincp. Or can't you login to that? If not, use the tools.php in the Vbulletin zip and reset ur shit.
It's a usergroup setting from the looks of it. I hope you have a backup
Can`t access the adminCP. I had one other shoutbox installed before and it worked fine.
About the vbulletin zip. What will it do and how do i use it? I have an active forum with over 500 members and havent done a backup in months.

I seriously think you didn't follow the install, upgrade right. You might have to edit the sql table.
# Upload the content of the Files folder in your forum root.
# Upload the content of the Images in each of your forum styles directories.
# Log into the admin control panel of your forum and import the product located in the Product folder.
Maybe I uploaded it to wrong location? For example the content of file folder has admincp folder and a mgc_cb_evo.php file. So I copied the mgc_cp_evo.php to my admincp folder. I didnt just drag the Files folder to the root.
For the images, same thing. It contains the folder misc and I copied the contents of that folder to my images folder.
What could I have done wrong? I dont know how to edit the sql table nor how to check it with phpmyadmin.

Please help!
Open the chat zip. Extract it. Find every file on the server that's in the zip, delete them. Reupload the chat. You can fix most of it in ftp. If it's hosted somewhere, plesk or cpanel should have phpmyadmin.
If you still can't get it to work, I might be able to help you look at it later. I've been up for 2 days straight and I just got done working. So nappy time!
Thanx for your help! I only got it to show the forum but once I try to log in I get the error again.
Maybe it`s due to a reason I had another shoutbox working while trying to install a new one?
