Forum Plugin 404 error

[Owen34]

Hello,
I installed the forum plugin, all queries ran, it seemed to fully install.

The link in header goes to /forum.php but this file doesn't exist & I don't see it in the package to copy over? Is some of the files missing or am I missing something.

Thanks

That file usually will be created on plugin install. Obviously it hasn't, probably because of permission issues. However, you can manually create that file in the gallery root with the following content:

Code Select Expand

<?php
// define some basic element
define('NBSP', '&nbsp;'); // mass use
define('BR', '<br />'); // mass use
define('DS', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('BASE_DIR', str_replace('\\', DS, dirname(__FILE__)).DS);
// load coppermine
define('IN_COPPERMINE', true);
include(BASE_DIR.'include'.DS.'init.inc.php');
//$fr_time_start = cpgGetMicroTime();
// load class and file
include(BASE_DIR.'plugins'.DS.'forum'.DS.'forum'.DS.'import.php');
// init the forum
include(BASE_DIR.'plugins'.DS.'forum'.DS.'forum'.DS.'initialize.php');
//$fr_time_end = cpgGetMicroTime();
//echo round($fr_time_end - $fr_time_start, 3);
if (!USER_ID && ($CONFIG['fr_guest_browse'] == 0)) {
    header("Location: login.php?force_login=1&referer=forum.php");
    exit();
}
