Note:

Lefty, It's URL Rewriting that is the problem. You should write something about that people should disable URL Rewriting in their SEO mods temporarily to install this mod, on the same page that they can download it or something, and You'll probably save Yourself lots of headaches!

Just a quick question.

Is this MOD better then the Check for MOD Updates MOD?

[wolfman24]

It does not check your mods for new versions etc, it's just a database to administrate your mods.

After doing the edits and uploads, i go to install/index.php and get the option to uninstall or upgrade. As far as i know, this is the first time I've ever installed this. No matter which option i choose its tells me MODS_DATABASE_TABLE doesn't exists, which of course it shouldn't. Any ideas?

Code: Select all

if (!isset($config['mod_show']) && !isset($config['moddb_version']))
		{
			$msg .= '<span style="color:red;">' . $user->lang['MODDB_INSTALL_DESC'] . '</span><br /><br />';				
			$msg .= '<a href="' . append_sid("{$phpbb_root_path}install/index.$phpEx", "action=install") . '">' . $user->lang['MODDB_NEW_INSTALL'] . '</a><br />';
		}

This is the relevant part of the install/index.php that decides to show the install link.
So it would seem that you have the mod_show or the moddb_version config parameters already on your system.
Perhaps another mod is already using these config parameters ?

Anyway, if you would like to proceed with the install, go to install/index.php?action=install and installation will start (forced). But maybe this will break the other mod that is already using the same config parameters. Always make DB & Files backup before installing a mod. so you can roll back !

[Drakken]

Thanks for the reply! I don't think i have anything else using those parameters but if i did i wouldn't know it either, hehe. I'll give this a whirl, thanks again!

[lefty74]

hmm, i am sure i had submitted my reply.


oh well, have to be short now as i am out of the door with one leg already

apart from checking in the phpbb_config table of your database if you have the fields mod_show and moddb_version, please also check that your includes/constant.php edit was made and uploaded as normally you would not get MODS_DATABASE_TABLE doesn't exists but the actual table.

[Drakken]

Well i tried again and got the same thing. In my phpbb_config table i do already have mod_show but not moddb_version. I went ahead and did the install/index.php?action=install and everything seems to be working fine. Hopefully it doesn't sneak up on me in the future cuz i'll be clueless, lol. Thanks for the help fellas!
