For Tripod what is the information I need to put in the config.php?

$dbhost = "localhost";
$dbuname = "root";
$dbpass = "";
$dbname = "nuke";
$prefix = "nuke";
$user_prefix = "nuke";
$dbtype = "MySQL";


:confused:

[roly]

its

$dbhost = "localhost";
$dbuname = USERNAME";
$dbpass = "PASSWORD";
$dbname = "USERNAME_uk_db";
$prefix = "nuke";
$user_prefix = "nuke";
$dbtype = "MySQL";

you need to activate the mysql database first of all. Go to www.tripod.lycos.co.uk , and sign in. Then click "PHP4U/MySQL" on the menu on the left, and some where in that page should be a link to activate your mysql database. Then after you activate it, it should forward you to a page that says its activated, and if you scroll down it should tell you your db name wich is usually "yourusername_uk_db". then go to the "PHP4U/MySQL" part again and click on the phpMyAdmin link, it should open a thing called phpMyAdmin. look around it until you find somthing that says "Or Location of the textfile :" and click browse, then open the nuke.sql file that is in the sql folder in the php nuke package. it will create all of the neccessary database tables. once it is done then you can go back to your config.php file and edit the changes so it looks similar to this:

$dbhost = "localhost";
$dbuname = ""; (no db username or password is required)
$dbpass = "";
$dbname = "yourusername_uk_db";
$prefix = "nuke";
$user_prefix = "nuke";
$dbtype = "MySQL";

then upload the files and chmod them according to what it says in the install doc.

Well if people actually had a bit of a look around you would see that there is a forum at www.php50.com/forums/ called "CHMOD Requests" then you type your account ant the files you want CHMOD'ed and what to. and then we get right to it and CHMOD them for you, i know it might not be easy as for you, but as far as i can tell it is worth it.

[ComFreak]

Where can i download it from???

[doofynz]

maybe because multimania and tripod are both owned by lycos

[biggulp]

what about www.tripod.de ? they're from the lycos europe family! :biggrin2:

[Moonman]

to get phpnuke go to www.phpnuke.org

Hello all,
I signed up with tripod.co.uk and i have waited two days and my account is activated but I can't login to ftp, I have typed my password and username quite a few times but no luck.

I was wondering if anyone could help me before I ask tripod.

Thanks,
Paul.

thats a big hassle to do that, with tripod UK you can get it done a lot faster. plus it would take for ever to upload the stuff to your server because you have single file upload, and php nuke has like over 1500 files. And yes multimania and tripod UK are the same.
You can download php-nuke at www.phpnuke.org , or www.sourceforge.net and search for PHP-Nuke. as you can see i am trying to answer all te questions in one post rather then make multiple posts.

[phpnuker]

looks like there was one i didnt answer:D Have you goten your account activation email yet? if you havnt you should this week and then it will ask you to choose a ftp password. the ftp adress is: ftp.members.lycos.co.uk then put in your username and ftp password.

[Pole]

Yes i have got activation email and have activated my account and i have tried that ftp address.

[phpnuker]

what does your ftp program say when you try to connect to it or upload?

[Pole]

503 or 530 - Access denied.

And I am using smart ftp.

[phpnuker]

hmmmmmmm.......do you have msn or aim instant messenger or icq? it would be easier to talk over that. my msn is Dirtracer01, my aim is coolguyfrak.

[SpaceMan Spiff]

Ok, I had my site working on tripod.co.uk and was in the middle of customizing it last night and it just stoped working. I can't access my web at all. I can still log in to the FTP however. Kinda Weird. Any Thoughts? :confused:

[phpnuker]

they are upgrading there servers they should be back up soon, if you look for tripod news, it will say in there that they'll be offline from a certain time to another.

[SpaceMan Spiff]

[phpnuker]

it wont be down for that many days it'll just be off and on.....because they do periodic changes instead of doing them all at once.
