| by lllkailll on 2006/6/30 23:53:27 I am new to XOOPS but I know one thing I found out. If you are using a 3rd party free hosting or a to small of packege to have a database. You won't be able to use Xoops. I had a package that didn't have a database and I had to upgrade to a larger package that supported a database. In my case I now have a minimum of 1.5 Gb of disk space to get a database package. Maybe this isn't true for all hosting but I just notice you are set up as a 3rd party hosting site and added my 2 cents of experiance |

Open and edit your mainfile.php to reflect the new path. *edit* Of course reading the entire post would help.... Uhhh, what Bender said :-p |

| by Lance_ on 2006/6/30 22:50:35 Continuing Bender's steps. Create an index.php file and place it in your /public_html beside the XOOPS folder with the following code. You can rename the XOOPS folder to anything you like, I use "cms" a lot. le="color: #000000"><?php <? header("Location: /xoops/"); ?> This will automatically redirect to the XOOPS folder when typing the your.url.com |
| Re: howto get xoops to show on main page |
| by Bender on 2006/6/30 21:50:07 You just move all the files and subfolders from inside the html folder one level down. Then edit mainfile.php and change the path there to http://www.mywebsite.com/xoops and the correct directory on the server without the html and you are done. |

| by Quest on 2006/6/30 21:24:22 The way I did it was to upload all files in the html or htdocs folder to the root directory ie; on some servers it is public_html. You don't need to upload the html folder or the htdocs folder themselves, just all the folders and files inside. Not sure what you could do now. You could do a fresh install. Just drop all the tables in your database then delete the folder you originally uploaded your files to- which looks like yoursite.com/xoops/html and then upload all the folders again to yoursite.com then follow the rest of the install procedures. There is more info on this in the F.A.Q.s and the Documentation from the Community Menu. Hope this helps. Quest |
