[Plugin: WP phpBB Bridge] Simply cannot connect to config file

The right path is the full path to you config.php
In example in my blog is somethink like that:
/home/public_html/phpBB3/config.php

in your case may is somethink like that
/home/public_html/forum/config.php

but I can’t be sure about your server a I don’t know the configuration of your server.

If you are not sure what is the full path to your phpBB3 then create a file “ie: mypath.php” into the folder phpBB3 and enter the following code in it:

echo $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'];

The above code will return to you the full path to phpBB3 + the file name “mypath.php”. Replace the “mypath.php” with the “config.php” and then copy all that path to use it in the plugin configuration.

Hope this help you ??

Thank you for the reply

I’ve tried that little trick but when the mypath file loads, it simply loads the code you included – I even tried viewing the source of the page and the same thing appears…

Hmmm…

You see i’ve tried a lot of the different paths like:

/forum/config.php
https://www.website.com/forum/config.php
/../../config.php

and so on…

in the file that you created you wrote:
<?php

echo $_SERVER[‘SCRIPT_FILENAME’];

?>

Cool! Thanks icemax!

It worked, but only when I placed the file in the root of the wordpress installation – I had it in the forum

Although, when I activated the plugin the site crashed, I get a 500 error ??

Does anyone else get this?
