But I wouldn't rush to upgrade a production site just yet, especially without a backup.

(Just my personal policy of never trusting anything brand new. )

I've just learnt this the hard way cause I've upgraded, -reset all the permissions, and I can access the forums via the 'Recent Topics' block, but if I click on the forum menu all I see are my top catergories and nothing inbetween! Also, some of the graphics appear as missing links. Dam!!

I'd still be interested to know how to insert the code as described in lbkhorse's posting 5 posts back. My post after it is asking for clairification on it.

I had a problem with the installation of NewBB2 so have reverted back to NewBB standard for now.

I've just tried updating the templates of my cloned template set to see if this might resolve the problem (having read that updating the templates is necessary for the NewBB2 module). I then updated the module in sys\admin again. But alas, it didn't work either.

Any other suggestions apart from the flurry so far suggested?

I notice XOOPS are using the NewBB2 module. Has it been OFFICIALLY released now, cause all I can find are references to its RC status.

Thanks

Ted

Hi! sorry, these day is our national day, so I'm on vacation. Now I'm back.
:)
I mean that just replace all contents in the /modules/newbb/include/notification.php (not the newbb\functions.php) with the following codes :

By the way!
The problem is caused by php's include_once() function and this function's case sensitive attribute. So when your host is based on windows, be careful at the XOOPS_ROOT_PATH defined in mainfile.php, make it all lowercase will be safe.
As that reason even the newbb2 will probably cause the problem too!

Oh my golly gosh!! It worked!! I'm so thankful I could cry!

In my case, the file was not named notification.php but notification.inc.php. I changed the file like you stated and it worked anyway. Perhaps you meant the second named file?

I also changed all the XOOPS_ROOT_PATH to lower case, but I got loads of php errors, so I changed that back again - it still works fine.

I'll have to write all this up so that I can apply the change when I upgrade to the next version (if it's still necessary by then).

Thanks again lbkhorse - you really are a super-trooper!

Hi! tedsmith
It's nothing.

1. Sorry, I have made a mistake. the file name of mine is also notification.inc.php not notification.php.
2. I mean make sure the things in the second quote (here is E:/Www/xoops) in the following line in mainfile.php to be lowercase
define('XOOPS_ROOT_PATH', 'E:/Www/xoops');

So for better, this line after modified should be like :
define('XOOPS_ROOT_PATH', 'e:/www/xoops');

Gotcha. I misunderstood and thought you meant change the variable name itself from upper to lower case. I have changed my value to lower case like you suggest, and all is working great. Thanks again.
