Does Boox require PHP 5. It insatlled ok on my local server which runs PHP 5 / MySQL 4.1.

I really would like to use this module. I didn't see an .sql file to fix so how is it installing and what can be fixed to make it work.

I've figured a tedious workaround.

I took the boox database info from the working installation on my local server and edited an installed module in the xoops_module table of my production site with the boox info.

Then I went to the module administration where I now see the boox as installed but not functioning properly, and I click update and now it is successfully installed and working fine.

Though it works I would like to know how to fix it so it installs properly.

Looks like a corrupt file. I would try un-zipping the package again. Be sure to upload PHP files in ascii (text) mode.

A thread is for life. Not just for Christmas.

All the files except images are uploaded ascii. Since it doesn't have an .sql file, how is it being entered in the database. I looked through all the files and could not find anything suggesting insertion.
