phpBB module gives blank page after initializing

[Soleiltan]

Me again....all I can get is a blank page.....HELP!!!!!!

Installed the phpbb module....

Modified the settings.php to the following code:

<?php

 */
$data['phpbb_db_name']=""; //database name
$data['phpbb_db_host']=""; //database host name
$data['phpbb_db_user']=""; //database username
$data['phpbb_db_pass']=""; //database password
$data['phpbb_db_prefix']="phpbb_"; //database prefix
$data['phpbb_usergroup_id']='3'; //the usergroup id you want people registering to become a member of. This is for your phpbb forum.
$data['classifieds_user_level']="2"; //the 68 Classifieds user group number that you want them to be under.
?>

Now....all I get is a BLANK WHITE PAGE for the login, user & admin....

I tried re-uploading an unedited version of the settings.php file to (hopefully) delete those changes....and bring back up the site....BUT NO LUCK>>>

Where in the heck do I go from here....this is frustrating stuff!

[Soleiltan]

I need help with this ASAP as I cannot get into the 68 Classified site to post a ticket....

This site is supposed to be up and live....

Check your server logs - there should be an error in there.

[Soleiltan]

How do I do that please? Through mysql?

Steps?

[Soleiltan]

I think this is the line that is creating the issue.

$data['phpbb_db_prefix']="phpbb2"; //database prefix

Now if my 68 install lies in sandrailsonly.curbstoners.com/

And if my phpbb2 install lies in sandrailsonly.com/phpbb2/

Should the code say

$data['phpbb_db_prefix']="sandrailsonly.com/phpbb2"; //database prefix

Am I missing something here?

Tried this, still blank white page...

No, the prefix is the prefix for the name of the database tablees for phpbb. For example when installing 68C is has a default prefix of "class_". You are confusing a file path with a table prefix.

Ok Larry...got that...

But how does the script know to look in a different domain for the phpbb? phpBB is NOT installed on the same domain/subdomain.

68 Install is www.sandrailsonly.curbstoners.com/ (a subdomain of curbstoners.com)

phpbb2 Install is www.sandrailsonly.com/phpbb2/ (domain of Sandrailsonly.com)

At your mercy here....

So, what should I do to bring back up My Classified site.....that is until the developer figures out what I need to do here?

Delete the module from the server by going in through the FTP?

I dont have the mod so cant look at the code BUT I dont think the 68 classifieds script nor the mod actually has to know where the forum is at. It just needs to know where the database for the forums are.

the following fields in the config file tell the user share script exactly that.

$data['phpbb_db_name']=""; //database name
$data['phpbb_db_host']=""; //database host name
$data['phpbb_db_user']=""; //database username
$data['phpbb_db_pass']=""; //database password
$data['phpbb_db_prefix']="phpbb_"; //database prefix
$data['phpbb_usergroup_id']='3'; //the usergroup id you want people registering to become a member of. This is for your phpbb forum.
$data['classifieds_user_level']="2"; //the 68 Classifieds user group number that you want them to be under.
