After installation I´ve got the following messages:

Warning: Unexpected character in input: '\' (ASCII=92) state=1 in GLOBALS.php on line 26

Warning: Unexpected character in input: '\' (ASCII=92) state=1 in GLOBALS.php on line 27

Warning: Unexpected character in input: '\' (ASCII=92) state=1 in GLOBALS.php on line 28

Warning: Unexpected character in input: '\' (ASCII=92) state=1 in GLOBALS.php on line 29

Warning: Unexpected character in input: '\' (ASCII=92) state=1 in GLOBALS.php on line 30

Warning: Unexpected character in input: '\' (ASCII=92) state=1 in GLOBALS.php on line 31

How can I stop this?

Hallo,
Kann es sein, daß Du die Pfade wie unter Windows mit einem Backslash geschrieben hast? Du mußt nämlich, auch wenn es unter Windows installiert wurde, immer die Pfade Unix mäßig, also "/" angeben.
Aus:
c:\programme\apache\htdocs\forum\
sollte nach Möglichkeit
c:/programme/apache/htdocs/forum/
werden.

Daher müßtest Du in deinen versteckten Ordner unter include/ nachschaun und dort die GLOBALS.php von Hand editieren, in dem Du die Pfade richtig rum machst. Wichtig:
Es gibt noch 2 andere GLOBALS.php, eine im adm/ verzeichnis und die andere direkt in der Forumsroot. Die nach Möglichkeit nicht anrühren, weil das lediglich Verweise (win32) bzw Symlinks (unix) sind.
Tschüß
Ken

Hi!

Der Indianer läuft auf einer Linux-Kiste!
aber:
der Tipp an sich war nicht schlecht:
vor all den php-Variablen in den genannten Zeilen war ein \ gestanden. Nach Entfernung gehts, aber:

Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at GLOBALS.php:172) in /usr/local/httpd/forum/include/cookies.inc on line 129

Hallo,
was mich erstaunt, daß deine Globals 172 Zeilen hat. Ich komme nur auf 132 Zeilen. Sind vielleicht hinter dem Abschlußzeichen "?>" noch Leerzeichen? Falls ja solltest Du diese löschen, denn dahinter sollte gar nichts mehr folgen.
Bei den Cookies ist manchmal das Problem, daß kein korrekter Hostname angegeben wird (zB "localhost"), oder der Pfad nicht korrekt gesetzt wird.
Also, für den Fall daß Deine Domain "www.beispiel.de" heißt und der Pfad zum Forum /support/forum/ lautet, müsste das in der Globals.php wie folgt aussehen:

[...]
$COOKIE_PATH = "/support/forum/";
$COOKIE_DOMAIN = "www.beispiel.de";
[...]

Die WWW-Root sollte (ist nen Stück weiter oben) so aussehen:

[...]
$WWW_ROOT = "http://www.beispiel.de/support/forum/";
[...]

Dann sollte das eigentlich funktionieren. Falls nicht, müssen wir auf Englisch weitermachen Wink
Tschüß
Ken

This problem usually occurs if PHP for some reason added \ character before the $ in the GLOBALS.php file. To fix this, simply edit the file and remove all \ before the $.


P.S. I am not sure why this happens on some systems and for 1 I cannot replicate this problem on any of mine.

Hi prottoss,
sorry that I haven't translated the dialogs into English Smile. The first problem had to do with backslashes being added to the paths and the second one was caused by a lot of spaces after the end of the php code. Both issues have already been fixed now.
bye
