Hey everyone, Im new here... I did some searching around the web and found this nice little shoutbox.... Was having problems with another.. SO I had to find another one. wanted to give this one a try...

I did some reading through and found someone had the same problem as I am, but I didnt see any answers for it.. So I thought I would make another post for it..

Heres my errors im getting when I run ShoutLogin.php

CODE

Warning: main(ShoutBoxFiles/shoutoptions.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/friendsi/public_html/ShoutBoxFiles/ShoutLogin.php on line 8

You currently do not have an Admin, please enter the following information...

Yes I did set up the shoutoptions.php file with all the required fields:

CODE

$dbHost =localhost;
#Your db host

$dbUser =myusername;
#username

$dbPass =mypassword;
#Pass

$dbname =friendsi_shoutbox;
#Name of the database.

But Yet I still get those errors above... What am I missing?

Thanx in advance.. If anyone still reads through here lol

Put all the values in the options in quotes.

CODE

$dbHost ="localhost";
#Your db host

$dbUser ="myusername";
#username

$dbPass ="mypassword";
#Pass

$dbname ="friendsi_shoutbox";
#Name of the database.

Whatever floats your boat.

I'll have you know friends of mine without any PHP or MySQL knowledge did it on their own. So I stand by it being easy to setup, hell they can barely use HTML let alone PHP.
