Sounds like you missed a file edit. Recheck your list of files to edit and the number of edits for each to be sure ya got um all.

I've looked through about 20 pages of this thread and havent had any luck.

I have GD Version bundled (2.0.28 compatible) installed and working, but only Red Xs where an image is supposed to appear. If i click on the Red X, the correct image oopens ina new window.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I had a similar imagecreatestring() error. If you right click on the broken images and copy the url listed into your browser you'll see the errors. I fixed mine by re-compiling PHP - with GD. I think an upgrade to php was made that wiped GD out in my case. Here's how to re-compile PHP - with GD if you have root and easyapache (WHM/CPanel): http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...735#post762735 . If you don't have root you might have to contact your host.

if possible can you give me a full break down of what to do to make it work with 3.0.3

also how do i get the vbgarage option back in the admincp in the left panel

All the information you need to solve those isssues has been laid out in the past few replies. Make a list and check it twice.

I'm a bit confused here. I was running vB 3.0.3 with vbGarage and then upgraded to 3.0.4 which broke vbGarage. People can not see the garage but I can, I also lost the admincp for it like everyone else. Noppid what exactly do your queies do? Is this a fix for my problem? Or do I have to completely reinstall vbGarage?

[noppid]

Running the queries and re-doing the file edits after the vB upgrade are what keep it working for us.

I can't be certain what is your exact problem, but as you see, those steps seem to get everyone else going after a vB upgrade.

Im obviously missing something. How does a member use this? How would I go about adding a car (or other item) to my vBgarage?

Assuming you had vBgarage working already before your vB3.0.4 upgrade, you need to do all the file edits listed in the original install files. Then you need to modify the 'canvbgarage' bitmask as you listed above and then run the 5 queries.

That's really all I got for ya. I'm trying man, but that's all I got.

As for a scratch install, I haven't done one since I can't remember. I'd assume you do a full install as per the original instructions, but during the file edits part you make sure you make the change to the 'canvbgarge' bitmask.
