Need Help ASAP

[Brexen]

Hi there,

I am helping a friend install his forum as I have alot more experience of vbulletin. However there seems to be an issue with the images showing up. I think I know why but unfortunately I can't seem to overcome it.



None of the images are showing. I have checked the FTP and all the images are there as they should be.



Now I believe the reason the images are not registering correctly is due to the forum path containing /public_html/ rather than the default /.

To try and correct this. I have changed the forum path in the config.php file to this.



However this has no effect on the images. I am cluless what else could be causing this.

Any Ideas?

If you view the html source, what does it say in the img tags for the src?

It says this;

<a name="top" href="forum.php" class="logo-image"><img src="images/misc/vbulletin4_logo.png" alt="Tactical Hax - The Latest and Greatest in Hacking! - Powered by vBulletin" /></a></div>

Hmm...is there a <base> tag on the page?

Yes there is;

<base href="http://www.tacticalhax.com/" /><!--[if IE]></base><![endif]-->
<meta name="generator" content="vBulletin 4.1.12" />

And that public_html folder is where the vbulletin files are? I'm stumped too.

Do you have an .htaccess file?

What happens if you enter http://www.tacticalhax.com/images/mi...etin4_logo.png in the browser?

Currently there is one on there. But it shouldn't make a difference because it's only restricting IPs from viewing the site.

AuthName "Admin's only"
AuthType Basic
<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from My IP
</limit>

Obviously my IP is replaced with my actual IP xD

I'm hopping in the bath. I shall be back in about 30 mins though. I'm just as stumped as you.

So if you just put http://www.tacticalhax.com/images/mi...etin4_logo.png in the browser what happens? And can you check the web server access or error logs to see what it says?

When I put that url. The logo shows fine;



There is no error log on the server and the access logs is just a massive list of all the files uploaded to his server.

Still no luck. I honestly have no clue what the issue is. It's a fresh install, so it can't be any modifications =/

Okay an update. It seems to be working on Internet Explorer but not FireFox. I have no idea why.

I need a few testers.

Go to www.tacticalhax.com and tell me if you see the images.

[kh99]

That's strange. It seems with that base tag and src in the img tag that it should load the same file you're able to load in the browser. Did you try a different browser? Maybe use something like Firefox with Firebug to see what the browser's trying to load when you load the page.

Otherwise I'm out of ideas.

ETA: Just read your post above. There may be some Firefox setting telling it not to load the images by default. Do you get images on other sites?
