    I have tried all the different steps shown in the post including downloading the revised importgedcom.php and still can't get the import completed. I have set the ged file to 777 and checked all my settings and I still get this error.
    Database Tables Dropped

    Successfully created Individuals table.
    Successfully created Families table.
    Successfully created Sources table.
    Successfully created Other table.
    Successfully created Gedcoms table.

    Importing Records into Database

    PLEASE BE PATIENT

    Reading Gedcom File http://www.dnslaptops.com/phpGedView/ober.ged

    Warning: filesize() [function.filesize]: Stat failed for http://www.dnslaptops.com/phpGedView/ober.ged (errno=2 - No such file or directory) in /home/dns/public_html/phpGedView/functions.php on line 634
    Flushing contents

    This is being done running PHP version 4.3.1 and MYSQL 3.23.56

    Any other thoughts on what I might try would be great.

    So far I like what I see.
    Thanks in advance.

      If I go to the link included above for your gedcom I get the following message saying that there is no file at that locaiton:

      (none) 128.187.233.225 /phpGedView/ober.ged www.dnslaptops.com Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) 404

      If I go to www.dnslaptops.com/ober.ged instead of www.dnslaptops.com/phpGedView/ober.ged then I am prompted to download the file.

      I would try to import again using
      ../ober.ged or
      /home/dns/public_html/ober.ged or
      www.dnslaptops.com/ober.ged

      The after the import is complete I would delete your gedcom file so that it isn't accessible over the internet.

      I used the  /home/dns/public-----.ged and it went right in.  Thanks

      I'll add this for your notes: The reason it wouldn't go from phpGedView link was due to my changing the .ged to .GED in a trial. I had a copy of the .ged in the main tree which is the one you were getting prompted to download. The files were there but the http: wasn't being handled.

      Thanks for the fast response

      Steve
