Give the name of one of the plugins you are working on, and what directory did you install it?

Give me the path to your geeklog please.

hey, one of the plugins is Chatterblock (i have the files if you would like them)... Ok, in my File manager, this is all i can find as far as where it is installed into...

/.fantasticodata/Geeklog/

though I cant find out what goes before the /.fantasticodata... if I can find that out, I should be able to get it to work...

the path to my geeklog page is below...

That's the path to the install data. Normally your geeklog should be something like
CONSOLE
/public_html/geeklog/

In this one, geeklog represents the folder where all your files are. But it shouldn't be with a . in front of it.

SInce these are Unix servers, a . means a hidden folder, which is probably WHY your install.php can't be found. When I come to think about it, .fantasticodata is probably where the INSTALLERS of Fantastico are and not your actual geeklog folder.

I don't have AIM smile.gif.

You have an error in your install. this is from your install:
CODE
Warning: main(/home/covert/.fantasticodata/Geeklog/public_html): failed to open stream: Success in /tmp/cpanel.covert.1118102136.18543 on line 1615

Warning: main(): Failed opening '/home/covert/.fantasticodata/Geeklog/public_html' for inclusion (include_path='/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/lib/php/:.') in /tmp/cpanel.covert.1118102136.18543 on line 1615

ok, so what should I do? go to my home port (just the /), create a public_html folder, then insert a geeklog folder into that, and then follow the instructions in the plugin from there? would this work?

Now, I'll give you a quickie in Unix smile.gif
See where you went wrong is you installed stuff in a HIDDEN folder (folders preceded by a .)
Let's say you installed geeklog in a seperate directory in your public_html, then THIS would be your correct path.
CONSOLE
/home/covert/public_html/geeklog/

Whatever you want to put on a site HAS TO go into
CONSOLE
/home/covert/public_html/
Whatever you do, do NOT touch the .folder (any folder with a . in front of it), 99% of those folders, if not all, are needed to have your account work decently. If you have sufficient knowledge of UNIX and servers, then you can try it, but I suggest before trying to back up the ENTIRE
CONSOLE
/home/your_account/
which in your case is
CONSOLE
/home/covert/
Just download it with an FTP client to a folder on your computer and zip it.

So unless Nils or OpaQue can fix it, your account needs to be reset, because Fantastico will no longer work ok.

Do you have all your data backed up? Your account is seriously messed up and I may have to reset your hosting. I'll be back online in 1/2 hour.. I have to get out of work
