I did the ajax chat upload to my server.  Then I tried to run the install.php file and I have an error on the screen that says 'No database selected'.

In the forum error log I have this:

: No database selected
/public_directory/forum/Sources/Load.php
535

On line 535 is where I have a custom query that loads the a member's team name that he is on for my hockey league.  This query runs fine with no errors with every other file.  Here it is:

Code Select Expand


<?php
//get user's team
    $request = db_query("
            SELECT teamID, jerseyID, division, position, season
            FROM bmhl_member_teams
            WHERE ID_MEMBER = '".$ID_MEMBER."' AND rostered = 1 ORDER BY id DESC", __FILE__, __LINE__);
    $numrows = mysql_num_rows($request);
    if ($numrows > 0)
    {
        while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($request))
        {
            $user_info['teams'][$row['teamID']] = array(
                        'teamID' => $row['teamID'],
                        'jersey' => $row['jerseyID'],
                        'div' => $row['division'],
                        'pos' => $row['position'],
                        'season' => $row['season']
                        );
        }
        mysql_free_result($request);
    }
    else
    {
        $user_info['teams'][0] = array();
    }
?>

Anyone had this happen to them before? Or seen this error?

Thanks Nick

Also, I get the exact same error when I call the index.php file as well.  I installed the DB tables thru phpMyAdmin myself.  Is that the only thing the install.php file does?  Or is the more I need to manually do?

Yes I believe that's the only thing the chat/install.php does is create these tables

ajax_chat_bans 
ajax_chat_invitations       
ajax_chat_messages
ajax_chat_online 

[ninedoors]

Ok, so do you know what classes calls the load.php file?  That way I can try and fix the error i keep getting

[mrtrc266]

Not sure, it's odd though the chat/install just creates those 4 table in the DB.

Just looking through the parser I don't see where this MOD or the actual chat is called from the load.php at all. During the install the load.php file isn't edited at all.

EDIT:

I just installed a fresh chat on a test site. Ran the mysite/chat/install.php and this is the result....

Database tables created successfully - please delete this file (install.php).

mrt,  Thank you very much for your time, patience, and expertise in helping to set up my Chatroom.  It's up running and the responses are very positive thus far.  Ideas like "Open Source" and "The Social Web" wouldn't exist if it were not for people like you.

Thank you very much for the compliments I'm far from an expert, I barely know what I'm doing but I love a challenge I know how much of an asset this AJAX Chat and Intergration MOD are to a community, so I'm glad I was able to help you get it goin'.

hi ive got couple problems with the integration for chatroom

1) when entering chat it doesnt open in a new window - i have the popup selected

2) i have a custom menu bar, its a static menu positioned at top of my screen, and the users in chat doesnt display there

3) i dont have a header on my forum so cant display users in chat in the header info section, which code operates this so i can try moving it to a place somewhere at the top of my forum

cheers

For 1, 2 and 3 it looks like you just need to do the manual edits for your theme using a Package Parser

1. After doing the manual edits make sure you don't have PopUp Blockers on. It works fine in IE and FF tested on 118 and RC1

2. Doing the manual edits for your theme should show the number of users on the chat menu button.

3. When you open the intergration MOD in the Package Parser look for this piece of code that shows the number of users in chat. Just a thought though, if you want this at the top of your forum you will already have the number of users on the top of your forum on the menu button. Might be kind of redundent?

Code Select Expand

if ($modSettings['enableChatBelowPM']){
if (count(array_unique(getChatOnlineUserIDs())) == 0 )
echo '<br />' . $txt['chat_no_user'];
elseif (count(array_unique(getChatOnlineUserIDs())) == 1 )
  echo '<br />  1' . $txt['chat_aUser']. '.<br />';
else
  echo '<br /> ' . count(array_unique(getChatOnlineUserIDs())). $txt['chat_users']. '<br />';

Have fun and good luck

[bullbreedluverz]

i did have a look at some the manual edits and they seemed fine but ill go thru it all a lot closer later

the reason i may need to place the users in chat somewhere at top my forum is because the number on the chat button may not work because of my custom menu bar

Not sure exaclty what you mean by "link texts" Looking at your forum it seems that everything is showing just fine?

Regarding the custom theme coding you'll have to use a Package Parserto do the edits.

i got it working just need mabey some help on custom theme.

edit:  trying the package parser

[Xboers]

Where should I post?

Is there a fuction on this chat whereby I could set a MINIMUM post size? I would like to have the people on my chat post no less than 20 words and if they do and error message telling then that: "Sorry, this is a discussion Chat and your reply must consist of more than twenty words. Please try again."

Not sure how to get a custon error message but here it the code that will set the min/max charcters..

/yourforum/chat/lib/config.php

find

Code Select Expand

// Max messageText length:
$config['messageTextMaxLength'] = 1040;

and change to whatever you'd like

@ Damien666

GL w/ the Parser, attatch up your theme files if you have any troubles.

Tried to put in a MIN string but that did not word.

Thanks mrtc266, I need to NOT limit the words Max, but the words MIN

[mrtrc266]

Oooops, sorry I misread your post. That's what I get for posting BEFORE coffee .

Not sure about that one, will look into it though after work. Just at a quick glance there are 9 files with 12 referrences to the messageTextMaxLength. Might be a tough one.
