Gidday, I running phpbb 206 in phpwebsite 0932 and want to add a shoutbox or some other function where registered users can chat online. I had a look and found a few including Prillian. Am wondering how the shoutbox (IM etc) would be displayed...would it be in the phpbb window or another window. Any info appreciated. Wayne in Japan

Thanx for your help last week. I did a back up, then trashed the phpbb folder and untared a new one in place of the old phpbb and wulla!!! all worked well. Fantastic to have things working again. Regards, Wayne Rock Sign

Seems my phpBB script has mucked up somewhere. To rectify parse problems etc, is it possible to just trash the current (errored) phpBB folder of files and untar another new in the same location? Databases are all correct. Wayne

Can someone pls tell moi whats going on here? Its been 24H of headaches. All files in place, maybe their content is incorrect?

Running phpbb206 in phpwebsite 0932. Have now found that when I Show File posting.php I get Not Found The server was not able to find the document (./frontend/x2/files/'%20.%20append_sid() you requested Please check the url and try again. You might also want to report this error to your webhost. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cpsrvd/9.1.0 Server at to-to-to.net and the file is complete, 100% there. But when I do Edit posting.php the bottom is missing and slowly disappears when I Edit -> Save. Anyone know how to load this? Also, my CPanel has changed from the old to CP 8 in the last few minutes. Maybe Server 53 is has a hangover. Could someone in Tech pls look into it? Wayne needs a beer...no smilies? woooot

Gidday, been posting in HTML forum. I have found that when I open a file (posting.php) and save it then reopen it that a few lines of the bottom have disappeared. The more I open (click edit) and save the more that gets eaten. Running phpbb206 in phpwebsite 0932.

Raul, thanx for your posting. I have done everything...deleted, emptied trash and uploaded. Have overwritten. Have deleted contents of file and copy/pasted. But no good. I put in a ticket and got reply that they upgraded my cpanel. I then tried all I know again but no luck. Have even restarted computer, turned off/on modem...no luck. The file I am using on my desktop is complete. Have copy/pasted it into another text doc and its complete. Seems that there is a restriction to the length of the .php file length. When I open the server posting.php and try and copy and paste I get a no go beep. I even add space with return and add above there but no luck. Have sent posting.php to helpdesk and asked them to add it for me. Am worried that if I edit other files they may be eaten too. Heeeeelllllppppppp someone...all will be well. Wayne

Doug, thanx for your suggestion. I had the posting.php open and saved it. Then opened again to see any changes...part was missing. Then saved open file and reopened several times and parts kept disappearing...its getting smaller everytime I open and save. I copy/pasted to main file...uploaded/overwrite and still bottm part missing. This is wild. What to do???? Wayne

Gidday, I seem to have lost part of my posting.php file in phpBB2. The bottom section is missing. I have tried to upload from orig file on my PC. Tried copy and paste of section but no go. This is what I have: *******Ummmm, posted here but most of posting gone******** Maybe computer paste function problem.....bugger. Disregard for now. Wayne

Now that was good. What would have happened on the Apple side? Wayne

Replying to my post but fixed problem...trashed cookies and all is well. Wayne

Got the following...wondering if something happening on Server 53? Looked thru Status etc and see that that server is alive. Message read... Access Denied If your browser does not support HTTP Authentication, please use this form: Username: Password: Login. Wayne

Thanx Bruce...will work on getting a trace root done. Wayne

PS, I sent emails to people concerned whom cant see website regarding if they just cant see or are getting error messages. Havent had any replies as of now. Regards, Wayne

Hi Bruce, thanx for your help. Somehow I dont think the people concerned are up to opening DOS windows and doing traceroots etc. I got a DNS health report from Men and Mice website as follows...

Thanx again, Wayne

Hmmm DNS...I know what it is etc but how would one remedy the problem? Wayne

I opened my CP maybe 2 days ago to find the X or X2 CP in place and was presently suprised. But now when I open CP its returned back to the old version. Im on server 53. Why the revert? Wayne

Thanx again for the feed back all. Awesome I just checked my html source from the browser and found the following large white space at the top... ---------page starts here------- <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> </title>...... Guess this may be the problem? If so, where would I edit this out? Wayne Thumbs Up

Hi all, thanx for the quick replies. Greatly appreciated. BTW, they didnt say whether they got error messages. Just said `cant see`. I will check with them and see what they are seeing. I checked awstats and got the following error report: HTTP Error codes* Hits Percent Bandwidth 404 Document Not Found 964 62 % 0 302 Moved temporarily (redirect) 461 29.6 % 48.78 KB 301 Moved permanently (redirect) 112 7.2 % 35.61 KB 206 Partial Content 17 1 % 474.88 KB Does this tell us something?
