"smf not yet installed" is displayed when you don't have the correct SMF absolute path in the configuration.
Same as the above poster... my paths are all correct as per the instructions and doing some testing. I still can't get the "smf not yet installed" to go away
THEN... I had to do the same in the smf.php file located in /components/com_smfon or around line 15:
if (!defined('SMF')){ global $mosConfig_absolute_path; require_once ($mosConfig_absolute_path."/administrator/components/com_smf/config.smf.php"); require_once ($mosConfig_absolute_path."/administrator/components/com_smf/functions.smf.php"); require_once ($mosConfig_absolute_path."/administrator/components/com_smf/functions.smf.main.php"); require ($smf_path."/SSI.php"); }
Replace with:
if (!defined('SMF')){ global $mosConfig_absolute_path; require_once ($mosConfig_absolute_path."/administrator/components/com_smf/config.smf.php"); require_once ($mosConfig_absolute_path."/administrator/components/com_smf/functions.smf.php"); require_once ($mosConfig_absolute_path."/administrator/components/com_smf/functions.smf.main.php"); require ($smf_path."W://www/hipware/forum/SSI.php"); }
or something similar to your server as stated in the first code example.
NOW.. here is the tricky part... Please let me know if any of you experience this, because it's VERY strange...
In your mambo admin panel, go to SMF Configuration. I noticed that the settings don't stick (even with FULL writing permissions on the config file). I tried experimenting with the path, and it would insist on putting in what it "thought" was the path, but it's correct. It wouldn't let me change it.
I opened up the config file (the php file in your administrator/components/com_smf/) and I noticed that the absolute path was BLANK! I played with this and it was the only way it would stick to what I wanted. Then it would show up in the SMF configuration in the control panel.
This problem remains... It still says that SMF is not installed, yet I have it working. So that leaves the new update feature out of the question.
Can anyone go through the documents that I've stated and experiment and see if your findings are the same? Or is this all intended?
In some ways I'd like to revert back to 1.0 until it's fixed, but I deleted the file
You have to set the correct absolut SMF path in your configuration to detect whether SMF is installed.
See my post "yet another fatal..."
There must be a problem then with this, because when i try and set up the absolute path, the smf configuration tool doesn't allow it to stick, it will simply change it to what it thinks is the the correct path. It doesn't want to save what I put in as absolute.
I have this same issue myself... I'm running on a local test server to try things out.
My instruction should do everything. I don't know how you went through the installation so I don't have any idea.
I followed your instructions closely, after doing it a few times... it's working now but for some odd reason, I had to put the ABSOLUTE pate into a couple of documents by hand because the installer didn't do it. Even in the smf config, I had the absolute path as required but it didn't put that in correnctly.
I know it's not a write issue because I have all permissions set up correctly.
Another weird thing... where the config specifies the ABSOLUTE path, if you try and change it... your config won't allow it... it will simply put it back it what it 'thinks' should be default.. is that working as intended? I can see this could be a problem for those who many need to change that in the smf config. I'm wondering if this had to do with my problem.
OK... Please disregard, I finally figured it out LOL... it took me all day but i put in the absolute path where the comment /SSI.php is... apparantly it needed an absolute one to do that.... is this a bug?
Greetings! I'd love to get this working.. but... I had version one working fine on another site but have done everything I can to get this one working, but I get the following error:
Code:
Warning: main(/SSI.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in W:\www\hipware\templates\hipware1\index.php on line 17
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '/SSI.php' (include_path='.;\usr\local\PHP\includes;w:/www/mambo45') in W:\www\hipware\templates\hipware1\index.php on line 17
Just so you know, I'm working locally, but that didn't make a difference on another prototype site I was working on with your other version (1.0)...
I'm almost interested in locating the original version 1 to get it working...
