Hi all.

I have seen a lot of topics with the same problem, but they didn't gave me an answer. I am installing skalinks and I have to fill in the 'script root' or 'dir root' to continue my installation. The example in the topics I have looked at are linux path's , but I am using a Windows server. But the installation don't accept my path which is: C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs

As standard when I install the program it says: c:\program ... but that ain't right and it will not be accepted by the installation file either when I press Install.

Have anyone else installed SkaLinks on a Windows server, and maybe have had the same patch? I really need some help here, cause I have tried many many links directory program...but there is something wrong every time, so I think that this program might be the right one for me.

Thanks in advance

Hi Tommy!

Try to specify your dir_root in installation form as:
C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs\path_to_skalinks_folder\

Let me know about results.

Thanks

skalinks,

I tried to use: C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs\main\ which will be the right path, but I got the same error as before: Please, enter correct patch to the script root directory.

Looks like this script is just build for Linux? Please let me know :-)

Thanks in advance

Hi Tommy

Try to disable Javascript on your browser and submit installation form again

getting the following error:


Warning: fopen(): URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /home/.jerubbaal/bdbudd71/bdbuddy.com/links/SkaLinks_include/xml_parse r.class.php on line 50

Warning: fopen(http://www.skalinks.com/news/news.rss): failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /home/.jerubbaal/bdbudd71/bdbuddy.com/links/SkaLinks_include/xml_parse r.class.php on line 50
Nao foi possivel encontrar o ficheiro pretendido.
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/.jerubbaal/bdbudd71/bdbuddy.com/links/admin/index.php on line 165

we weren't sure what our base path is.. we tired the one we got from the webhost but that didn't work.. we copy pasted the error and we got this. error.

besides the erroes, the site is running fine.

any suggestions? and would we be able to run skalink without problem if we still have the above errors?

thanks,

moin

Hi

Now, you have probelms on your hosting, which disabled file-access in configs.

No problem, just open index.php file in admin folder and remove this code:


require_once( '../SkaLinks_include/rss.class.php' );
$reader = new RSSReader( $_skalinks_url['rm_news'] );
foreach( $reader->data['item']['title'] as $key => $value )
{
$reader->data['item']['description'][$key] = str_replace( ">", ">", $reader->data['item']['description'][$key] );
$reader->data['item']['description'][$key] = str_replace( "&lt;", "<", $reader->data['item']['description'][$key] );
$reader->data['item']['title'][$key] = str_replace( "&gt;", ">", $reader->data['item']['title'][$key] );
$reader->data['item']['title'][$key] = str_replace( "&lt;", "<", $reader->data['item']['title'][$key] );

$_output['news'][$key]['title'] = $reader->data['item']['title'][$key];
$_output['news'][$key]['link'] = $reader->data['item']['link'][$key];
$_output['news'][$key]['description'] = $reader->data['item']['description'][$key];
$_output['news'][$key]['pubdate'] = $reader->data['item']['pubdate'][$key];
}

if ( $dir_handle = opendir( $_skalinks_dir['db_backup'] ) )
{
while ( $f_name = readdir( $dir_handle ) )
{
if ( $f_name != '.htaccess' && $f_name != '.' && $f_name != '..' )
{
$_output['backup_files'][] = $f_name;
}
}
}


Thank's

the anonymous that did post the last messages wasn't me, and I have forgot to login every time. I still havent't fixed the problem, but I don't know if I want to do more until I am certain that it will work. Love the script by the way, and the layout on the directory links are just beautiful...just bad it doesn't work for me :-(

But thanks for the help Skalinks, and maybe I will try more in the future

but I am using a Windows server. But the installation don't accept my path which is: C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs

I had the same problem just delete C: so that your server root is
\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs\dir\

of if that fails try

/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache/htdocs/dir/

its one or the other
