Mboard - no header, cannot post

Post by bryan.newport »

Script URL:http://bnewport.dyndns.org/default/mboard/mboard.php
Version of script:1.3
Hosting company:
URL of phpinfo.php:http://bnewport.dyndns.org/phpinfo.php
URL of session_test.php:http://bnewport.dyndns.org/session_test.php
What terms did you try when SEARCHING for a solution:

Write your message below:
I am having trouble posting to my mboard, and it does not display the header. I had everything running until I upgraded my webserver, so I am not a complete newbie. I know it is probably something simple that I am misssing- any suggestions?

Hi Bryan,

Have you been editing mboard.php file?
I see the whole contents of the html <head>...</head> section is missing in your generated mboard page.

Maybe you edited out to much?

Try replacing it with a non-modified version of MBoard, to see if that displays correct.

EDIT:
I forgot to open phpinfo.php and session-test.
phpinfo does not display correct here.
And session-test gives a false.
I don't know mboard well enough to know if it depends on session. But maybe that could be the problem.
Or php is not setup on your server 100% correct (i think because phpinfo not displays correctly).

Greetings,
Henrie

The only file I edited was settings.php. I will re-upload the files and try it again.

OK- I FTP'd all of the files to my mboard directory again. I also entered the proper info in settings.php. The same problem still exists- what else can I try?

If you had it all running and it stopped after upgrading the server then it is obviously a server-side problem, probably with your PHP installation or server configuration. Not sure what though, try rebooting the server. Also check fi ther scripts work normally.

What I mean by upgrading the server, is a new install of PHP and mboard on the new machine. I am going to check PHP, because gbook isnt working quite right either. I can run the phpinfo and "hello" php scripts just fine.
