I have turned notifications on for forums and news and I have my account setting for notification method set to private mail. But for some reason I don't get notified and I am not sure where to start looking for the problem.

Yay!!!!

Your a champion myc1229.

After some odd restarts and "can't connect" messages it has all settled down and that seems to be the fix. Thank you.

I hope this will help some other people that come across the same problem. I know someone else has but they got no answer. This will likely help them too.

New problem.

My linux system keeps looking after me by correcting the file permissions on /root and /root/tmp so even if I set /root/tmp to 777 after so many minutes it reverts and the blocks once again disappear.

It only seems to be the menu blocks that seem to want to temporarily write to /root/tmp

If I
chmod 777 /root
chmod 777 /root/tmp
it works but that is not how I want to leave my root acount. Does anyone know why XOOPS want to write to /root/tmp? Apache2 instantiates itself as 'root' but all child processes are run by user 'apache'.

Is it because the files are owned by 'root' that it is using root's tmp? What if I changed the ownership to someone else?
Or is there a config setting that points to /root/tmp?

I tried changing the ownership of all the files to the httpd2 user 'apache' before re-installing. That is not the problem it appears. So it is either a PHP config setting somewhere or a XOOPS setting. I will recheck phpinfo(). Nope nothing obvious there.

It seems that it is just a temp file that gets written but not left. /root/tmp/#sql_2aeb.MYI

Can a developer out there assist me in troubleshooting this please. It is rather urgent. My mac installed without a hitch yet this linux install has been going over a few days ironing out access issues, ownership issues, missing modules etc.

Only header and footer after install

I am running
PHP 4.3.1
Apache 2
Mysql 4.0.18
xoops 2.0.6

I have finally successfully installed XOOPS but on entering the site for the first time I am greeted with the header and footer only.

I managed to manually get to user.php and login and then manually go to admin.php for the first time. I found the debugging modes and turned on mysql/blocks debugging.

On trying to view the front page again there were still no blocks but I finally notice that firefox was blocking a pop-up. In the popup I found this error

SELECT b.* FROM xoops_newblocks b, xoops_block_module_link m WHERE m.block_id=b.bid AND b.isactive=1 AND b.visible=1 AND m.module_id IN (0,-1) AND b.bid IN (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16) ORDER BY b.weight,b.bid
Error number: 1
Error message: Can't create/write to file '/root/tmp/#sql_2aeb_0.MYI' (Errcode: 13)

Why is XOOPS attempting to write here and how do I stop that?

Found my solution. Mandrake doesn't seem to have a php.ini but I did find somewhere to place the line mysql.default_socket = /tmp/mysql.sock which has fixed the DB access problem I had.

Now I have another but that is not for this thread.

Hi guys, I am using,
Mysql 4.0.18
Xoops 2.0.6
Apache 2

Mysql runs as mysql
Apache2 runs as apache

I can access the database using phpmyadmin and do whatever I want after changing access to socket from tcp.

I get to checking the db settings and the next page ('used to be blank but fixed one problem) tells me I can't connect to the database. Exact same settings as I put in the phpmyadmin.conf.php file.

I thought it was rights problems with apache but if so pypmyadmin wouldn't work either. phpmyadmin thinks that mysql.sock should live in /var/lib/mysql but on my linux box it lives at /tmp is this an issue seeing that I had to change it for phpmyadmin.

I'd supply logs but I'm not sure which ones are specific to XOOPS and where to look.

Minical block disappears UPDATE -- worked it out

I was wondering why the minical block disappears when I'm viewing anything other than 'Home' or 'News'. When the blocks are looped through it seems to get missed.


I normally have the minical block on the top right but apart from the two modules mentioned it's a no show.

UPDATE

I found the module configuration area where I can tell the block to be visible on all pages. It's all sorted now.

My problem is a little different but related to the date selector again.

In Safari when the date selector popup appears if I mouse over a date the script in the bottom of the popup doesn't show a date but a whole load of what appears to be repeating javascript.

I have written about this before but received no response. Search for the AgendaX FINAL release and my full report was there.
