Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'XOOPS_ROOT_PATH/class/template.php' (include_path='.;c:\php4\pear') in C:\Xitami\webpages\test\header.php on line 62

This is the error I get upon installation of the file. I verified that it is there, capitalization is correct...still not working x.x Help?

Please read this FAQ

It covers all of these sorts of messages. Ask again if you can't find the answer.

You are trying to use a constant quoted in a string.

Should try this instead

require XOOPS_ROOT_PATH.'/class/template.php'

Remember XOOPS_ROOT_PATH is a constant

not sure that is the problem, Catz. I think those quotes are added by the PHP error message.

Most likely it is because XOOPS_ROOT_PATH is not defined at that point, but why that is, I cannot tell.

Yes, he may have forgotten to include the 'mainfile.php', in that case that is as far as that script will go lol

If he where to post that part of the code it would help a lot in debugging his problem.

I've already read the FAQ...read it before I posted. It doesn't cover exactly what's happening here. I'm sure it's because XOOPS_ROOT_PATH is not defined, but where should it be defined and how should I go about doing it? :-/ I feel like such a newb x.x lol.

mainfile.php IS included. Any other suggestions?

You need to include the mainfile.php at the top of your script.

include '../../../mainfile.php';

Not sure if it is that far up the directory structure, but the php error message should tell you.

Actually...I think I may have figured it out. I'll let you know if I have anymore questions :) Thanks for dealing with me! lol :)
