Hello,

Current Setup
-------------
PHP 5.1
MySQL 5.0.18
Apache 2.2
Xampp Control Center
FileZilla
eGroupWare 1.2
(All on a windows 2000 machine)
------------------

I am having a problem with the "Forum WWW Root" entry. The correct domain address is saying it fails when trying to run WWW_ROOT_CHECK, more specifically that it fails to open stream.

I have tried different variations of the domain, including \\localhost\forum and http:\\localhost\forum, the later of which crashes apache everytime.

I've tried chmodding (which filezilla does not support unfortunately) so if you can suggest another way of granting access, I'm all ears.

Any ideas?

Thanks for your time!

You can disable this check by setting allow_url_fopen PHP ini setting to off.

I tried setting "allow_url_fopen" to off only to find that it was already set on off. Of course this is assuming that '0' = false = off.

Also, on a more interesting note, once I sat down and read the instructions, I realized that I need to be giving http access to the browsable and non-browsable folders. Having realized this problem has made me think that maybe my permissions are not set up correctly in Apache.

So I set up another directory alias in apache but it still caused apache to crash when trying to access it. This was if I set the ServerRoot and DataRoot as (2) different folders. If I set them the same it would no longer crash apache but would still give me the Server_Root error when trying to open the stream for WWW_ROOT_CHECK.

Does any of this information help?

You can disable the check for WWW_ROOT by editing the installer and reading the instructions near the top of the file.
