hi,
ich habe das script installiert und alles funzt! nur.....
wie zum teufel binde ich jetzt das script korrekt in meine homepage ein?
unter templates gibt es mehrere codes von view bis result über comments....

kann mir mal einer erklären wie ich das ding nun zum laufen krieg auf meiner hp?

This script looks good but unfortunately there is absolutely no information on how to setup it up correctly on your page....

Got it working! Found the code to insert on the page in another post.

Can you share what you found out? Or post a link to it please?

You will have to have a way to edit the mysql database manuelly, usually through phpmyadmin.
then you will just edit the admin user name.

or you can use this

copy and past it into a file called admin.sql and import it into the database through phpmyadmin and it will reset the guestbook admin to the default
user name of test and password of 123

Im having the same problem though I didnt upgrade....help! its a bleedin annoying cycle. Cant remove nasty posts

me too! I really wanted to change that message but couldnt find it anywhere! off now to try out the edit.

how do I delete the password and put in a new one?

did you upgrade your guestbook or something?

If not, then you will have to delete the password in the database and leave it blank, then go into the admin and change it.

i resolved my problem by
putting the string:
$this->pollvars['check_ip']=2;
in metod poll() of class class_poll. The ip-address is checked now.
So it seems to be strange that i have not found any config parameter
for this and had to set it manually.

move the guestbook to the postnuke modules folder

And how do I add it to my postnuke site?

you can use the guestbook with postnuke

config.inc.php ->
define('IS_MODULE', true);

chmod 007 /tmp

Please read the post directly above yours.......it already answered that question. If you have no access to your database, you will have to completely delete the current database and set it up again. Other wise install.php will complain that the tables already exist, as such as they did for you already when it said Table 'book_auth' already exists.

delete mysql database completly, and re-create, then run my version of install.php

Thanks for making an easy install-package.
You see, I still don't get it.

I've deleted all the files and folder in the
pubilc_html, and created a new folder with
all the files. But my old guestbook is still there.
You may go to the admin page and choose:
USE YIM and USE MSN, but when i click submit,
I get foolowing message:
(I get the same message, when I try to sign the guestbook)

MySQL Error : Query Error

And worst of all, when I try to create a new guestbook table throgh
the install.php, I get another error message:

Database Error

Why is this?
Would it help creating a new database and a new table?
It just takes a great lot of time.

Hi all,
I am having a bizarre problem. Everything seems to be set up properly. But I cannot submit to the guestbook. The mysql database connections seem to be working properly. I can login to the admin page and change settings there, and they get saved, but it just won't post.
Whats happening is I put in a name and type a message and click the submit button, it looks like it is going to submit for a minute but then it clears all the fields, (like I hit the reset button). And it doesn't add the post to the main page. (It just stays on that page)

I checked all the file permissions
777 on public and tmp
755 on everything else
most of the admin settings are set to default values

I am new to mysql and php, but I thought I set up everything right. Are there any special permissions that the mysql user needs? Or some other special trick I missed when I set up the database?
(by the way REDHAT 7.3 apache and mysql with all the updates)

Thanks for any help
