i know i know...
i have been litle boring these days well now since i found the ideal webhost for smf and i install the smf with no errors
thay started to show up
now im able to aply new mods
but at some mods when i press install only blank screen comes and at down left corner there is "done." like the page has loaded or somthing but its blank
this happends on the most inportant mod the ad menagment
so any tips?
but pls stop driving me into circles by saying visit this page or that page
thanks in future.
forum link ? a screen shot if possible ?
http://clanmadv.eu.tc/
here but cant do screenshop but this is what i do.
1.uploading mod.
2.creating temp dir and chmod 777
3.pressing apply mod
4.and the text is showing test sucssesful
5.install and only blank page is apearing and at the left down corner it says "done" like the page has loaded but its just a blank
i was installing meta tag mod manualy and found this. /sources/managesettings is missing i noticed this when i was folowing the manual for installing the mod and requered to change somthing in /sources/managesettings but its gone no manage settings file
its not even in the installation file
i downloaded again and its not there
/sources/managesettings.php
have you checked forum error log -- if you can get to it -- and especially the webserver's error log?
A blank page normally indicates that a script error, or a server configuration problem, is happening. Checking those may provide some insight as to what is happening. It can also be a timeout issue on the server end.
ManageSettings.php is a valid source file in SMF 2.0 -- but not in version 1.1.5. Are you sure you got the right version of the mod for your SMF version?
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?action=download;mod=255;id=26580 is the version of the ad management mod for 1.1.5
i have the valid mod version but the page that appears is blan when i press install.
this is the error that i get when try to install mod in error log

Hm, i don't think that'd cause the page to crash. How about the webserver error logs? You may need to contact your host regarding how to access them, but they should show if any errors are occurring on the webserver side of things.
edit: that second error seems like ia file is trying to be required and can't be found -- that may be a problem. Did you have to enter FTP information before installing the mod? Can you ensure that all of your forum paths are properly set?
I'll have another peek at this when i wake up -- now that i've replied to it, it'll show up in my unread replies list -- good night :)
1 sec im runing repair_settings.php for fixing my path, let me see........................
all path are corect but only the cookie was 35 instead of 11
and what it takes for webserver error log i dont know were is placed or i need to contact to give me information were to go for error log..
i just tryed to install again and this error show up not blank page but this error
Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/www/1stfreehosting.com/i/l/l/illusionist/htdocs/forum/Packages/temp/./install.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php') in /www/1stfreehosting.com/i/l/l/illusionist/htdocs/forum/Sources/Packages.php on line 552
Edited:
it seems the problem for blank page was that when i was installing smf on webserver it didnt asked to chmod the files to continiue with installation so i forgot to chmod now this error shows up when i try to install this ad menagment mod
Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/www/1stfreehosting.com/i/l/l/illusionist/htdocs/forum/Packages/temp/./install.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php') in /www/1stfreehosting.com/i/l/l/illusionist/htdocs/forum/Sources/Packages.php on line 552
what i'm wondering about is the /./install.php part. obviously the . means current directory but it should not be in the path.
As i said, the webserver error log you'll likely have to ask your host how to access. if you are on a cPanel server you can login to cPanel and it will be available in 'error log'
y i have c panel but it seems i dont have server error log..
if i have i dont know were is it
but thus us not happening just to ad menagment mod it also happends to few other modes
is there anyway else to fix this?
Its difficult to be able to debug the problem without knowing what is causing the problem
its not 'server error log' in there, just 'error log'. If its not in there, i'd reccommend sending your host an email requesting the logs.
done i sended ticket to my server now waitnig for replay in meanwile once i installed forum and it was perfect but it was on funpic.de and 1 boring pop up was showing whole time so i tryed to change server and then the problems started i searched for the perfect server but no use on some server i chouldnt even install 1 mod but i tryed to host on funpic again and i haved problems
but first time no errors no problems evrything was runung exelent but 2 time on funpic and voala only problems
ca be this cause by the smf itself? i mean the error show some
temp/./install.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php') failed to open how can i create temp folder that will be there for whole time becouse when i install mod i create temp folder but when i press install and install the mod temp is gone.
theres a mod called no temp directory removal -- sorry i don't have a link available, run a search in modifications for 'temp' and it should come up.
if its not being enabled to create the temp directory, that is a hosting side issue in the ownership or permissions on files. Theres nothing SMF can do about that, you or your host would need to make sure the files are owned by a user where the webserver can create directories
i doubt that thay will send me the error log
i need to change the host? or tell me some good host
but dont point to the post were those hosts are those are bad 1 is locked other is.....
and the third you need to pay to activate the sql
1. Execute Code install.php nothing
2. Execute Modification ./index.php Test successful
3. Execute Modification ./Sources/Subs.php Test successful
4. Execute Modification ./Themes/default/index.template.php Test successful
5. Execute Modification ./Themes/default/BoardIndex.template.php Test successful
6. Execute Modification ./Themes/default/Display.template.php Test successful
7. Execute Modification ./Themes/default/MessageIndex.template.php Test successful
8. Execute Modification ./Sources/ManagePermissions.php Test successful
9. Extract File ./Sources/Ads.php nothing
10. Extract File ./Sources/LoadAds.php nothing
11. Extract File ./Themes/default/Ads.template.php nothing
12. Extract File ./Themes/default/languages/Ads.english.php nothing
didnt suposed for evry file to say test successful ?
Did you try using the No Temp Directory Removal mod (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=724) yet? Or create a folder called temp inside your /Packages directory and CHMOD it to 777 or 755. Then try installing a mod again.
If you want to look for another hosts, take a look at the Hosts and Hosting board (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?board=4.0).
y i did i meantion above that i have done those steps
now here we go from start............. just new suporter
I don't see a post where you said you tried using the no temp directory removal mod. I see one of the staff mentioned on using it but you never followed up on it.
One other thing you can try is the following:
Go to Admin->Packages->Options and uncheck Create Backup versions of replaced files with a tilde (~) on the end of their names. Try installing a mod now.
i give up... is it posible to put the ad menagment mod into the next version of smf?
i understand that will make the smf biger but it will save much time on users
till then i guest i will wait for next ver and mby better hosts will come out...
and is it posible to set the smf on my computer not on webhost but on my computer with some programs?
anyway what if server dont alow adsenses?
is that posible to cause this?
I'm sure it's possible, but don't see it happening unless there is a high demand for it. The next version of SMF is already out and about.
The problem is not with SMF though. It's your host.
wait wait wait
but all of the tests WERE successful.
it can't test extracting files. if you didn't get a read warning header, then you should be able to install it
im just installing 1.1.6 then i will see if there is a problem
thanks
1 more thing mods will work on 1.1.6 or i need to wait to thay set it to work to 1.1.6
Worker,
You now have 3 topics regarding problems with the Package Manager (Installing Mods).
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=259058
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=259633
I'm going to lock all other topics and drop a link to this one. Please can I ask though that where possible topics that have already been created on this problem are re-used and ensure that any old topics relating to this problem are marked as solved, perhaps pointing to the latest topic.
Thanks,

The 1.1.6 patch was just released, so mod authors will have to update their packages to install on 1.1.6 setups except specific SMF versions were not defined in the package-info.xml file of the packages.
Temp. SolutionPackage Manager -> Browse tab ->
When you have this in your brower
http://myforum.com/index.php?action=packages, change the URL to
http://myforum.com/index.php?action=packages;version_emulate=1.1.5.
Change 1.1.5 to version of SMF the mod was developed for, this will fool the package manager thinking that you're running that version and will allow you install the package.

Worker,
We are all volunteers here. If you didn't get replies to support queries you posted, bumping them after a day is fine. You're probably not getting replies because the readers are finding it hard to understand you. It took me some time to understand one of the other topics you started.
Let me know if the above instructions work for you.

its the host thats the problem!!!
i was running perfecly on funpic.de, but thay got forced pop ads and that was so frustruating, so i was searching servers and searching and when i ask here for 1 good server you point me 3 times in same thread where 4 free servers are.. 1 closed, 1 you need to post 60 times in month, 1 is not free!!110mb..... and 1 have forced ads and you need to pay for free ad pages + lol not for whole time when you pay..
but to 1000 free ad pages listing then you got ads back pff......
i understand its hard to find but i tryed to search, i was searching for whole 2 months.
it dont have to have many mb space, even if its with 300mb min. but to suport smf files
and to not have any pop ups or top banners or botom.... mby text links or frames are ok but banners omg... if you dont understand the text again :/ point me back to the 4 servers thread... i tryed to find good server... after all it seems i have to pay for the one...
Worker,
Free Hosting plans are not really the best, many of them try to frustrate you to go for a paid plan.
It's just a way of attracting more customers, I'd also suggest that you pay for one, see the board linked at the other thread. With a good host, you would run an SMF forum hassle free.

Yes, that's possible. However, not recommended by me.
I really think you should get a reliable Host that has everything to run your forum without issues.
If you want to run it from your computer, see: http://www.aprelium.com/

see places like our own hosts and hosting board, webhostingtalk, webmastersworld, etc. you can find good information on hosting there :).
files extracted can't be tested. You either extract them or you don't, pretty much. If they don't return an error condition, then all should be well there.
guys thanks for your help i overreacted a bit(i havnt sleep for 1 week :P)
im back at funpic.de it gives me 2.5gb and unlimited bandwidth
mods are runing perfecly and no errors at error log
but i have thinking wille searching..
is it posible safemod on to be problem for not installing mods?
I doubt it would work with safe mode on.
Safe mode should generally be avoided anyhow, in my experience. With proper setup, servers can be more secure than a server in safe mode
well for users who dont want to pay i suggest to take funpic it have little frustruation pop up but if you list or entering fast in 1 page to another that wont be a problem but if you stay 5-10 sec on same page then that shows up
well anyway thanks
I'm having a problem installing mods too. I created a temp directory and the mods seem to install very well.
The only problem is, the features (Shop mod, and custom actions mod) won't show up in the admin panel. How can I fix this?
