A full description of the issue:

Hello everyone, I’m new here. I installed the XOOPS 20.16 versions. Everything went as plan. Except for the protector v3.

I have read the new site in the beginner section. All of the tread connect from that section but don’t know what I’m doing wrong. Here is what I have.


I download the protector. To my computer.


Ok: I uploaded the folder (on this I upload the whole folder) html into the htdocs/module.
Then I created a folder (call let say, love) within my site and next to the htdocs folder.
Then I uploaded the folder called xoops_trust_path in that folder. (Note: I upload the whole folder into that folder.)

Then I went to the mainfile. Php file and put this.

// XOOPS Physical Path
// Physical path to your main XOOPS directory WITHOUT trailing slash
// Example: define('XOOPS_ROOT_PATH', '/,xxxxh/local/home/xxxxx/mywebsit.com/htdocs');
define('XOOPS_ROOT_PATH', '/xxxxx/local/home/xxxxxx/mywebsite.com/htdocs');
// XOOPS Trust Path
// Physical path to your main XOOPS trust directory WITHOUT trailing slash
// Example: define('XOOPS_TRUST_PATH', '/ xxxxxx/local/home/xxxxxx/mywebsite.com/love');
define('XOOPS_TRUST_PATH', ‘/xxxxx/local/home/xxxxx/mywebsite.com/love');

Then when I go back to install the module it say this.

Module File for html Not Found!Module File for Not Found!Module File for Not Found!Module File for Not Found.

Module File for html Not Found!Module File for Not Found!Module File for Notound!Module File for Not Found!Module File for Not Found!Module File for Not Found! 0 Module File for Not Found!
And there is no picture (o under module version) module not found. Please can someone help?

Thank you in advance..

Upload the contents of the html/ folder to htdocs/modules, so it goes like this:

htdocs/modules/protector/

Then, upload the contents of xoops_trust_path to the love/ folder, so it looks like this:

love/modules/protector/

Most likely this will fix your problem.

There is an excellent resource for Protector installation and usage Madfish has prepared. Here is a link to the pdf version - Protector Manual

Quote:

Whilst I agree that the documentation that MadFish has produced is excellant, there is a contradiction between item 3 and item 6 in the PDF document.

In short, the "trust Path" should be OUTSIDE the website root, as shown clearly in step 3.

Step 6 should be amended to .........



which keeps the 'trust path' outside of the web root.

HTH

Thanks for picking that up, I've corrected the document. Latest version is availble as:

* Protector V3.04 module documentation (PDF)
* Protector V3.04 module documentation (Open Office)
* Protector V3.04 module documentation (Word)

Thanks MadFish. :)

I viewed the Word Doc and it has been modified, but the PDF file needs

define('XOOPS_TRUST_PATH', '/home/my_account/my_trust_path');

for Step 6 please.

I thought it might be browser cache, but I don't think so.

Berlin,

The problem is that "HTML" folder doesn't go in the /modules/ directory.

Recheck your folder structures against the folder structures of the zip files and match up the /modules/ references; then extract accordingly.

Good Luck.

Post back if you're still having probs.

Ok PDF link now updated to correct file
