Hello,
I downloaded PHPOpenChat-2.3.4.zip
and uploaded the chat folder to my webserver.
Then I read in the /chat/INSTALL page that I should give Writer permissions
to:
<!--StartFragment-->*
/your/path/to/<phpopenchat-2.x.x>/includes/defaults_inc.php
and to
* /your/path/to/<phpopenchat-2.x.x>/html/.htaccess
I found defaults_inc.php and gave write permissions, but I did not find
.htaccess.
What shall I do? Shall I create a .htaccess file and should be in it?
Then, I went to the installation page /chat/html/admin/install.php and
filled out the form:
In front of Username, password, databasehost I wrote the data given to me by
the webhost, but when I clicked on enter I had this message:
"error connecting to the database"
and I could not go anyfurther.
I don't know if this is linked to the fact that I don't have an .htaccess
file or to another problem...
Could you help me?
(I tried looking at the archives, but I could not open their page).
Thank you.
Anne
