Hi.
I have a little problem with the installation of your calendar module for phpBB3 standard.

I have Xampp 1.6.7 with new version of phpBB3.03 in english.
I have changed all the file in your phpbb303_install_for_1.0.0b3+.xml

The last line of you file, report : Go to ACP -> System tab -> Administration Control Panel Choose 'calendar settings' under the bold heading 'Calendar [acp_calendar]' in the drop down box in the bottom right corner next to the 'Add module' button Click 'Add module', then click 'Yes' when prompted 'Are you sure you want to add the selected module with the selected mode?' You should then see 'Installation complete' to confirm if it worked

Ok. I don't receive the Installation complete but this error.

[phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file /includes/acp/info/acp_calendar.php on line 58: acp_calendar_info::include(./../includes/db/create_schema.php) [acp-calendar-info.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory
[phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file /includes/acp/info/acp_calendar.php on line 58: acp_calendar_info::include() [function.include]: Failed opening './../includes/db/create_schema.php' for inclusion (include_path='.;/xampp/php/pear/')

Fatal error: Class 'create_dbms' not found in C:\xampp\htdocs\phpBB3\includes\acp\info\acp_calendar.php on line 61


Where is the problem?

Sorry for my English.

Thanks for your help.

[livewirestu]

Please make sure you have the file
includes/db/create_schema.php
It should be in the original 1.0.0b3 package (not the 1.0.0b3+).

However, you may need to run the uninstaller script (in the spoiler) before having a second attempt at this otherwise your permissions might get a bit whacked.

[nGAGE™]

Yes, I agree... I believe you're missing files from the 1.00b3 package. 1.00b3+ only contains the updated files.

This is awesome! Great job, thx fellas!

*Edit - There seems to be certain days on the calendar that you can click on but not others. Once you click on them it says there are no events or birthdays for this day. Notice December 5th. On January its the 3rd and 17th. Feb. is 13th and 23rd. Not sure if there is a pattern going on.

[livewirestu]

Yup I think this is some sort of timezone issue. There's a whole bunch of those at the moment but hoping to nut them all out in next release (since it all hangs together quite differently in the new version).
I'm at the point now where I have stopped fixing 1.0.0b3 errors and giving them out because at the rate the bugs are showing up, I would never get any development on the new version done! But I am fixing stuff as it is found in my working copy.

[Drak]

Hehe, sounds good. Thanks!

*EDIT: Seems I'm having a problem with cookies or something. Not sure exactly whats going on but when i go to the forums I'm logged out. No biggie, log back in and everything is good. Problem is when i try to log in to the administration it keeps telling me i don't have the proper permissions. Remember I'm using the phpnuke => phpbb3 bridge. Not sure if that is what's causing this problem...hope not!

[livewirestu]

If you are using firefox, go to tools -> options -> Privacy tab
Click ‘Show Cookies’, scroll down and find phpbbireland, select it and click ‘Remove cookies’ (don’t click remove all cookies otherwise you’ll delete everything
Then in the ‘Private data’ panel in the same tab, click settings. Make a note of the current settings.
Tick cache, cookies and authenticated sessions then click ok.
Then click the clear now button. Don’t attempt to navigate anywhere on the phpbbireland site just yet.
Close firefox and wait about 15 seconds for it to unload itself from memory, then reopen firefox.

Might work

I'm able to get into the admin panel now but I still get logged out when i close my browser. Does this addon have anything to do with user accounts? It may just be something on my end.
