OK - I've got it resolved. The path should have been: "/home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/templates/" Thank you SO MUCH for your help and your time. I appreciate it!

Hi - http://www.catholic-interactive.com/poll/admin/index.php Here's what the page above shows: Warning: file(templates/admin_header.html): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: file(templates/admin_poll.html): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: file(templates/admin_footer.html): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Thanks.....

Cool - thanks! This is the original config.inc.php file from the download: <? ######################################################### # Simple Poll # ######################################################### # # # Author: CodeMunkyX # # # # This script and all included functions, images, # # and documentation are copyright 2003 # # free-php.net (http://free-php.net) unless # # otherwise stated in the module. # # # # Any copying, distribution, modification with # # intent to distribute as new code will result # # in immediate loss of your rights to use this # # program as well as possible legal action. # # # ######################################################### // change to match your server's configuration define(hostname,"localhost"); // mysql server host name define(dbname,"dbnamehere"); // mysql database name define(username,"mysqlusernamehere"); // mysql user name define(password,"mysqlpasswordhere"); // mysql password // directory where templates are located (must end foward slash) define(templatedir,"/home/www/codemunkyx/www/www.free-php.net/htdocs/demo/SimplePoll/templates/"); // url to the script main directory (must end foward slash) define(simplepollurl,"http://www.free-php.net/demo/SimplePoll/"); ?> I have configured it so it looks like this (currently): <? ######################################################### # Simple Poll # ######################################################### # # # Author: CodeMunkyX # # # # This script and all included functions, images, # # and documentation are copyright 2003 # # free-php.net (http://free-php.net) unless # # otherwise stated in the module. # # # # Any copying, distribution, modification with # # intent to distribute as new code will result # # in immediate loss of your rights to use this # # program as well as possible legal action. # # # ######################################################### // change to match your server's configuration define(hostname,"MYSERVERNAME"); // mysql server host name define(dbname,"MYDBNAME"); // mysql database name define(username,"MYUSERNAME"); // mysql user name define(password,"MYPASSWORD"); // mysql password // directory where templates are located (must end foward slash) define(templatedir,"templates/"); // url to the script main directory (must end foward slash) define(simplepollurl,"http://www.catholic-interactive.com/poll/"); ?> Let me know your thoughts - thanks so much (again)!

Wait - never mind - it was the extra comma (,) in there - my bad. I took that out and now it says: Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/config.inc.php on line 31 Then I took out the "$" and I got: Parse error: parse error, unexpected '[' in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/config.inc.php on line 27

Hi - thanks SO MUCH for replying back again. I appreciate your help!! OK - I cut and pasted your suggestion into the config.php file, so now it looks like this: // directory where templates are located (must end foward slash) define(templatedir,, $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/poll/templates/"); // url to the script main directory (must end foward slash) define(simplepollurl,"http://www.catholic-interactive.com/poll/"); ?> All of the prior warning messages went away, BUT, now I get this message when I pull up that same admin area page (http://www.catholic-interactive.com/poll/admin/index.php): Parse error: parse error, unexpected ',' in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/config.inc.php on line 27 What do you think causes this new warning message? Thanks again!

OK - cool - I'm not that good at this.....so I changed the web-based file path from "http://www.catholic-interactive.com/poll/templates/" to just "/home/poll/templates/" and some errors went away but many stayed on page, so now it reads: Warning: file(/home/poll/templates/admin_header.html): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: file(/home/poll/templates/admin_poll.html): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: file(/home/poll/templates/admin_footer.html): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Am I using the correct relative file path? Here is a portion from the config.php file: // change to match your server's configuration define(hostname,"localhost"); // mysql server host name define(dbname,"dbnamehere"); // mysql database name define(username,"mysqlusernamehere"); // mysql user name define(password,"mysqlpasswordhere"); // mysql password // directory where templates are located (must end foward slash) define(templatedir,"/home/www/codemunkyx/www/www.free-php.net/htdocs/demo/SimplePoll/templates/"); // url to the script main directory (must end foward slash) define(simplepollurl,"http://www.free-php.net/demo/SimplePoll/"); ?> I got all the database info configured fine, but it seems like I'm not configuring the bottom part correctly. Here's is how I've got it configured (I put all the files into a folder called "poll" in the main directory): // directory where templates are located (must end foward slash) define(templatedir,"/home/poll/templates/"); // url to the script main directory (must end foward slash) define(simplepollurl,"http://www.catholic-interactive.com/poll/"); Thanks so much for your continued help - I appreciate it!

Hello - I am installing a polling php script and have created the mysql database, uploaded the sql.txt file to create the tables and adjusted the config.php file. So, I think I did everything right, but I get this message on the polling admin index page: Warning: file(): URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: file(http://www.catholic-interactive.com/poll/templates/admin_header.html): failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: file(): URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: file(http://www.catholic-interactive.com/poll/templates/admin_poll.html): failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: file(): URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: file(http://www.catholic-interactive.com/poll/templates/admin_footer.html): failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/catholic-interactive/poll/admin/functions.inc.php on line 94 Please help!!!

Hey Guys - simcoweb, deadimp, charlieholder - I figured it out - yes, I had to import that .txt file from the "SQL" folder. Since I really don't have a clue, but know the basics, the fact that that step was not in the installation "READ ME" file really threw me for a loop. Thanks so much for your time and interest.

OK - there is no table in the database - I just checked on that. In the files I uploaded, there is a "SQL" folder with an sql file in there that is supposed to create the table if there isn't one by the name "page_comments" in there already. Well, there isn't a table by that name in there, but this sql file is not creating the table. What gives?

OK - cool - how do I do that?

Hello - Thanks to anyone who might help me here! I have set up my database fine and uploaded files for a "Comments" script. The script includes a test page to demo how it works on my site. Well, the demo shows this warning: Warning: mysql_result(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/content/m/b/d/mbdonner/html/comments/comments_show.php on line 38 error Table 'Comments5.page_comments' doesn't exist with query SELECT AVG(rating) from page_comments WHERE page_id='1' AND is_approved = '1' AND rating>'0' I did change some things in the config file, but nothing crazy - I understood everything (I guess!)... the main demo page is http://www.toplinepublishing.com/comments_demo.php Help! Thanks!!!!
