Ok. Sent request to TCH technical dept. I will leave this for anyone who needs to know it in the future. It doesn't work for me in my case due to a mandatory DHCP host. This is a TCH policy to not allow wild card remote IPs, which is completely understandable on a shared server. However, I have posted the reply from the technician for those interested with a static_IP : "a recent firewall upgrade has overwritten the special rule set that opened the custom port/s for your scripts. As this happens every time when the firewall is upgraded or tweaked we have developed a permanent solution for this. The port/s will be opened specifically for a given remote ip and kept in a place where it is not affected by further tweaks or upgrades of the firewall. We need the following information for this: Location of the script using the port : Port/s to open : Type (tcp/udp) : remote ip to which you want to connect :" --> again must be static. Good luck.

Hello all, Its been a while since I have run into a "roadblock". First off, kudos to the employees @ TCH for the outstanding service over the years. Thank you. Now to the problem, I imagine that the php function socket-write or sendto would be blocked for UDP ports on a shared server. Does anyone know of a way to send a magic packet by different means? -or- Perhaps, the help desk could open a specific permission? Any Ideas? Thanks in advance.

SmartFTP has a trial version and is quite easy to use. downloads can be found by google.

I have finally finished installing the config for my new site but the only page that comes up is the index.php or the cover page for the site ...which works fine any member register or such promps a http 404 not found. so I went into my file manager to see if my dir was correct...then it freezes ..on the one folder in cpanel I must open .could this be the issue? It is a public_html/layouts folder for design calls for the site. It won;t open I simply get a web site not responding. WHY?

got it ...you were correct...on array for database I added the "db" to the end . it was rejecting it.....of course now I get a new message from configs file.....what does Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/alcfuo/public_html/DRV/inc/header.inc.php:97) in /home/alcfuo/public_html/DRV/configs.php on line 348 mean? sorry...it is supposed to call file from my directory to install...if that help.

Carbonize, I appreciate you takin a look at this for me. here is that file, it is called db_funcs.class.php. I am know expert but it seems like it is calling the ($db)array correctly......do you think I could have done something wrong in the input of connection strings(in the header)? maybe 'localhost' doesn't work in an array? I don't know. but here it is....and thanks again: class MySql { function MySql( $db ) { $this->host = $db['host']; $this->user = $db['user']; $this->pass = $db['pass']; $this->name = $db['name']; $this->prefix = $db['prefix']; } function connect() { $host = $this->host; $user = $this->user; $pass = $this->pass; $name = $this->name; @mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass)or die( '<code><b>Error:</b> You must set your correct database access info in `<b>inc/header.inc.php</b>`.' ); mysql_select_db($name)or die( '<code><b>Error:</b> You must set your correct database access info in `<b>inc/header.inc.php</b>`.' ); } function query( $query ) { return mysql_query($query); } function fetch_array( $result, $type = MYSQL_ASSOC ) { return mysql_fetch_array( $result, $type ); } function close() { mysql_close(); } function get_conf_array() { $prefix = $this->prefix; $result = $this->query( "SELECT name, value FROM `".$prefix."config`" ); if( $result ) { while( $row = $this -> fetch_array( $result ) ) { $_conf[$row['name']] = $row['value']; } } elseif( $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] != 'first' && $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] != 'action=save') { Header( 'Location: configs.php?first' ); exit; }; return $_conf; } } ?>

I am having trouble with a header.inc.php file. It requires that all variables (ie. databasename, user, passwd, host) are entered into an array. when I simply assign strings and connect to database,, it works. but know in an array format it continues to say that Error: You must set your correct database access info in `inc/header.inc.php`. but I am pretty sure the syntax is right. Unless synta is different for an array. this is what I have: <?php // Bold is changed //just to simplify N= name $db = array('host' => 'localhost', 'user' => "cpnelN_userN", 'pass' => "XXXXX", 'name' => "cpanelN_databaseNdb" ); $db['prefix'] = 'dotsilver_'; $mysql = new MySql( $db ); $mysql -> connect(); $_conf = $mysql -> get_conf_array(); $mysql -> close(); if( $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] != 'first') foreach( $_conf as $value ) { if( !$value ) Header('Location: configs.php?first'); } $_dir = array ( '0' => $_conf['home_dir'], 'inc' => $_conf['home_dir'].'inc/', 'smarty' => $_conf['home_dir'].'smarty/', 'layouts' => $_conf['home_dir'].'layouts/', 'langs' => $_conf['home_dir'].'langs/', ); $_site = array( 'pid' => $_conf['site_ID'], 'layout' => $_conf['layout_name'], 'theme' => $_conf['color_theme'], 'app_name' => 'dating', 'bizname' => $_conf['bizname'], 'brand' => $_conf['brand'], 'mail_support' => $_conf['mail_support'], 'mail_links' => $_conf['mail_links'], 'mail_info' => $_conf['mail_info'], 'mail_ads' => $_conf['mail_ads'], 'age_start' => 18, 'age_end' => 75, 'online_time' => 10, ); $_sock = array( 'domain' => 'dating-remote.dotsilver.com', 'domain_img' => 'dating-img.dotsilver.com', ); $_url = array( 'site_url' => $_conf['site_url'], 'site' => $_conf['site_url'], '_remote_lc_img' => "http://{$_sock'>http://{$_sock['domain_img']}/photo.php", '_remote_lc_img_up'=> "http://{$_sock['domain_img']}/photo_up.php", 'flash_server' => 'rtmp://dotsilver.com/', 'im_xml' => 'http://dating-im.dotsilver.com/', 'anti_scam' => 'http://www.dotsilver.com/antiscam/public/dating/', 'faq_scammers'=>'http://www.dotsilver.com/antiscam/' ); $_url['js'] = $_url['site'].'inc/js/'; $_url['member'] = $_url['site'].'member/'; $_url['layouts'] = $_url['site'].'layouts/'; $_url['tour'] = $_url['site'].'tour/'; $_url['img'] = $_url['layouts'].$_site['layout'].'/themes/'.$_site['theme'].'/img/'; $_url['image_upload'] = "{$_url['site_url']}member/photos.php"; $_langs = array( 'English', ); ?>
