Hosting on an Opensuse powered laptop but using vsftp and apache.<br /><br />I have double checked permissions but cant get past this error:<br /><br />Can't locate -default-Other.template at (cgi dir) yabb2-Sources-Subs.pm line 3003.<br />(Had to replace slash with - to post the message)<br /><br /> <strong>Quote:</strong><br /><div>Cannot post quote or paste a code because i need to make 5 posts? </div><br /><br /><br /><br />Permissions are correct, figured it was looking for (slash)default directory from document root so i copied what it was looking for into what should be a discoverable url.

I don't just believe it, I know it. YaBB 2.6.12 works with all Linux versions, best with Debian and Ubuntu. I can't say anything about other Linux versions or Microsoft Windows Server. You don't have to lose any mods either. As you probably noticed, JetLi deleted all board mods after his inglorious departure. So if you have any old mods that we're missing, post them here. Dandello will definitely adapt them if asked. It shouldn't be a problem.<br /><br />If you have any problems, I'm happy to take over the installation. I'm a professional when it comes to servers.<br /><br />And what I forgot is that if you have a V-server without root access, you won't be able to upgrade Perl. That requires root rights. That only works with a root server or dedicated server. Otherwise the provider would have to do it and they usually don't.<br /><br />A friend and I have created a sitemap generator for YaBB, which I will publish soon.

It appears that after manual fixing I got it to work except for the board icons which simply refuse to appear (only standard folder icon).<br />Creating a new board will give me all the necessary fields and create a new line in forum.control. But even clicking edit on that one shows me a boardscreen page with no fields to edit.<br />A rough guess is that something was changed concerning the icons. But since there's no error message and since I was unable to find the handling of the boardscreen action I'm totally lost about fixing this crucial editing function.<br /><br />Hoping for any help from out there... thanks in advance.<br /><br /> YaBB 2.6.0 and 2.6.1 Support - Help!
