The intent of this was for displaying public news. I don't quite understand the concept of private news, but I know you have the skills to modify it if you want  .

It can also be seen on the www.councilofgrey.com home page. Although it's the 3.3 version, it *looks* the same. |

It probably did do the setup, but came up with an error when it was trying to close something that wasn't open. Moving the line should fix that.

I'm not that familiar with mySql ODBC yet so I'm not sure how to correct the other error you're getting. Does anyone else have this running with mysql and/or ODBC?

Yea, I fixed the previous error by moving the rs statement.
How I just get a 404 error even when I try and use the default
homepage.asp page. My directories are setup up correctly.
Any ideas??????? |

This is the page I was testing on:
http://www.constantvariable.com/test.asp
Here is the code to the page, since you probably won't be able to view it:
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="cgibin/news/config.asp" -->
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="cgibin/news/inc_func_common.asp" -->
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="cgibin/news/inc_header.asp" -->
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="cgibin/news/inc_news.asp" -->
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="cgibin/news/inc_footer.asp" -->
That's it, not very complicated. Basically it includes the include statements as listed in the read me file. I am not sure whats going on, looks ok to me, relative paths seems fine. I know it's trying to parse the test.asp file due to the fact that if I change one of the paths in the include statement it kicks back and error saying it can't find that file. It's just plain wierd. Any help you could give is GREATLY appreciated. |

This is what I'm getting as an address:
quote:
http://www.constantvariable.com/login.asp?target=test.asp
It looks like it's trying to log into a forum which is in a subdirectory. Snitz was basically designed to have all files contained in the same directory so when those files are moved around, some of the components can't find others. If you want them in seperate directories, then you'll probably have to tweak the code. I don't think it's in the News MOD code, but rather in one of the includes. The first place I'd look is in inc_header.asp where the login code is typically placed. You may want to consider integrating some other MODs, such as Univeral Login, if you want to use multiple directories.

| Since incredibly savy has changing code, more specificaly what to change, would the universal login work and allow me to get around the problem? |

I was getting invalid number of arguments on line 54, variable ChkDate.
I changed it from:
Posted by <a href="<%=strForumURL%>/pop_profile.asp?mode=display&id=<%=rs.Fields("MEMBER_ID")%>"><%=rs.Fields("M_Name")%></a> On <%=ChkDate(rs.Fields("T_Date"))%> At <%=ChkTime(rs.Fields("T_Date"))%>
to say:
Posted by <a href="<%=strForumURL%>/pop_profile.asp?mode=display&id=<%=rs.Fields("MEMBER_ID")%>"><%=rs.Fields("M_Name")%></a> On <%=ChkDate(rs.Fields("T_Date"),1,8)%> At <%=ChkTime(rs.Fields("T_Date"))%>
and now it works. |
