Re: installing Xoops 2.3.3, When i move xoops_data it goes blank?

hi

I think I have another solution for this problem, much easier and elegant

my idea is

from the hosting control panel password protect the two folders

to see if I can explain

Open the Control Panel of our hosting and protect the two folders with password and voala

I hope opinon, thank you very much and best regards

(Translated with google, sorry)

sorry all. actually i was reading through many other messages here about the problem
and i did see that i needed to change the paths in mainfile.php
so i did make the adjustments
but i was still getting the error

and to be clear
the error showed up during installation ONLY because i simply moved them from their common location
tried to continue install but it didnt work until i moved them back.

originally i thought i needed to move them only while changinc the permissions
move them back
do the rest of the install
and then revert permissions again.......

so i did what it asked
and finished the installation

now keep in mind
currently i ONLY see the warning message when i goto the admin control panel
no where else

Easiest solution is still to complete the install with the folders inside the root, check out the system if ti runs properly and when all works fine doing the move and adapt mainfile.php accordingly.

The installer is looking for the folders in the default location, but since you moved the folders; you must now point the installer to the location the folders were moved to by editing the paths statement.

Great

Did you ever change the mainfile.php? You don't mention above the step, only that you went back and refreshed the Admin Control panel.
