FAP SUPPORT - Need Help With Error After "successful" Install...
-----------------------------------
Hello all.  New to this forum, but not to phpbb.

Forum/Gallery is at http://troop445.org/members/forum.  You will need a user "test" and password "123456" to access the forum/gallery.  This .htaccess password is required by our Scouting organization (even though it is rather weak).  Currently the forum/gallery will not open - we will get to that.  I cannot currently set up a test account on the forum&gallery because I can't get in.

I just downloaded and installed the current version of FAP.  I followed the directions as precisely as I could...

When told to "[color=darkred]Change "Path to cgi-in" in Admin CP to a relative path from phpBB root to your cgi-bin[/color], I was given the followin error when I accessed the Admin control panel:

Warning: main(../ALBUM_MOD_PATHalbum_hierarchy_debug.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/philmont/public_html/troop445.org/members/forum/admin/admin_album_config_extended.php on line 66

So... I did not change the path.  I figured I could do that once the SQL tables were added and the file modifications were done.  So I continued on.  I uploaded the fap_install.php file to the /forum directory, logged onto the forum as Admin, and ran the fap_install.php file from another brower window.  The SQL update seemed to take as no error messages were given (and I verified the tables via myPHPadmin).

I backed up and modified the needed files, and uploaded the modified files into their proper places.

Everything worked!  I logged back into the forum as Admin, went to the Admin control panel, and accessed the Album control panel.  The first "tab" was updated and submitted with no problem.  When I tried to submit the changes on the second tab I was given this error:

[b][color=red]phpBB : Critical Error 

Could not query config information

DEBUG MODE

SQL Error : 1146 Table 'philmont_troopforum.CONFIG_TABLE' doesn't exist

SELECT * FROM CONFIG_TABLE

Line : 216
File : common.php[/color][/b] 

Now I cannot access the forum at all.  Any attemp to access http://troop445.org/members/forum presents me with the same critial error message.

Can you please tell me what I need to add or change to my database via myphpadmin so that I can get the forum&gallery back up.

I apologize if I have left out any needed information, and will gladly add any as required.

Shane

I think you have deleted something you didn't have to in constants.php.

Try to restore your backup and modify that file again following FAP instructions. :wink:
