vB Easy Auction v1.1
by yoyoyoyo Don't let the length of this post fool you... this is actually very simple to setup... I just tend to get long-winded at times... WHAT YOU NEED: * vBulletin Software (for vBulletin integration - the perl files will work fine without vBulletin) * Web server account that has CGI capabilities, and will allow you to run executable cgi files. * Perl 5.6 or better installed on that web server. Contact your server administrator if you are unsure (most servers are running version 5.8.X, so this should not be a problem). If you do not have perl installed then read a little further below about perlsp. * Access to either Sendmail, BLAT, or Sockets mail. No mail can be sent without at least ONE of the above. If you are using either BLAT or Sockets mail (NT users usually), you will also need access to an SMTP mail server. Contact your server administrator to find out if you do. Note: the SMTP mail server needs to allow the user to send mail without requiring them to log into the server. OVERVIEW This will add auctions to your site quickly and easily. Simply edit the auction.pl file and admin.pl files to reflect your server's filepaths, etc., and then upload the files to your server. Create a template and make a couple edits to your vbulletin files to allow navigation to your auctions and that is it! The core of the auction is based on a HEAVILY modified version of EveryAuction Release Version 1.53, and can be further edited or modified to suit your needs, as long as you follow the GNU public license. SEE POST #1 OF THIS THREAD FOR INSTALL INFO, ETC. If members of your site are interested in participating in the auctions then they need to register for them also, since this is not integrated with the vBulletin database for security reasons (since people put actual contact info, etc. in their auction registrations).

OK Ive got it to work but now it just points to a blank page. the reason it didnt work before is because I didnt have it in the forums directory so when it was suppose to point to "global.php" it didnt have the right file path. is it suppose to point to global.php or am i suppose to edit it and have it point to some place else?

I dont have a cgi directory in my server because I dont have a cgi_bin so what i did was, upload the auctions.php into my forums directory along with the folder called "auctions" and all of its contents.

I dont understand why the auction template file can be the reason why its not showing up. And now i uploaded the cgi-bin folder so the url is mysite.com//cgi-bin/auction/auction.pl in the auction template file.

Are you sure i dont need to edit the auction.php file such as the "require_once('./global.php');" because once its taken out of the forum directory where there is no global.php file i get an error message which says "Warning: main(./global.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in" and line 34 is the line of "require_once('./global.php');"

Upload the files as follows: auction.php is uploaded to your forum root directory (the same directory where index.php and newreply.php reside) the 'auction' directory, and all of it's contents are uploaded to your cgi-bin OR forum root directory. http://yoursite.com/ <-- your base URL http://yoursite.com/forum/ <-- your forum directory (this is where your auction.php file goes) http://yoursite.com/cgi-bin/auction/ <-- your auction directory (where auction.pl resides) OR http://yoursite.com/forum/auction/ <-- your auction directory (where auction.pl resides- ONLY if you have no cgi folder, but can still run perl scripts) The auction.pl file runs independently of the global.php file, so it is not looking for that file, only the auction.php file is looking for the global.php, so make sure you have that in the right directory (your forum folder). |
