|
|
well...
I have the 'perl' version of YaBB which I tried installing. I get a 500 error. I followed your instructions and everything.
Is it something dealing with my set-up?
I have all my things in the correct order so I don't see what should be wrong? :?
Well... if you can respond, thanks. It would be great if you had experience setting YaBB up too :D |

Check the log/cgi.log file to see why the Perl interpreter can't run the script. _________________ Support Team

flock() unimplemented on this platform at ./Sources/Subs.pl line 862.
Thats what it said in my logs. Does this mean I can't use the . statement in my urls?
Sorry about this, I've never set up a message board before :( |

You need mysql yup... just download it and extract it into your abys dir, then start winmysqladmin.exe and when u see the green stosign in the taskbar everything is fine, just change ur pass, but it´ll probably as that upon first start _________________ !Keys || MwM^computerware |

flock instruction is available on UNIX systems only (This is a Perl limitation, not related to the web server.) On Windows systems, it has no meaning and should be ignored. Are you sure you downloaded a Windows compatible package of YaBB? _________________ Support Team

gman, you can disable flock in the script just look for the line with flock and disable it with 1 or 0 and everything will be fine :)
lorgoose out (ps. yabb doesnt need mysql and yabb se does!) :D

Yep, but with yabb, the cgi version you have to chmod a lot, chomdding is difficult without ftp support, so when ur going local yabb, take yabb SE, u don´t want mysql database and you like chmodding forever ánd u have a webhost somewhere else.. fine, take the cgi vreson :D _________________ !Keys || MwM^computerware |

I changed all the $use_flock == 1 to $use_flock == 0
Now I get this error:
Can't locate .Sources/Subs.pl in @INC (@INC contains: C:/Perl/lib C:/Perl/site/lib .) at yabb.pl line 35. |

The error is self explanatory. The paths declared as INCLUDE paths doesn't contain the referenced file. You should update the @INC in the Perl configuration to contain the path containing the requested file. _________________ Support Team

this is the only line with @inc in it:
@INC,$yypath
And the includes look all right to me as well.
### Requirements and Errors ###
use CGI qw(header cookie); # so we can use the header and cookie printing
$CGI::HEADERS_ONCE = 1; # Kill redundant headers
require "Settings.pl";
require "$language";
require "$sourcedir/Subs.pl";
require "$sourcedir/Load.pl";
require "$sourcedir/Security.pl";
Thats what they should be, isn't it? :? |

We don't know how you configured the rest of the script but obvioulsy you missed some step which leads to that error. So please check again the installation instructions of YaBB. If you still run in trouble, and as this is only a script installation issue, the best is to ask YaBB tech support/community for help. They can give better advice on what they know best.
gman, we provide tech support only for Abyss Web Server and we can only help you with easy questions about scripts. In no way we will provide tech support for something we haven't written. _________________ Support Team

Posted: Sat Mar 29, 2003 6:11 am Post subject: it was simple in the end |
|
|
I was gettin frustated with it myself trying different settings on different things. You talk like you are running the server from your home like i am. in the end the problem turned out to be the directory (where its put www.mysite.com /yabb) I needed to just change that to "localhost instead of a www address. In the end it was simple! looks good and cant wait to use it but still need to add a mail server.
also is there a way not to use a ail server as the website will only be accessable by 15 or less ppl? can I edit one of the files in the members directory and add the user/pass myself? |
