Warning: main(includes/boxes/configuration.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/giellacu/public_html/admin/includes/column_left.php on line 13

I went to install the better paypal module and the osCommerce_PayPal_IPN_v2.3.2_1 module. Obviously I screwed something up in the code. Can someone tell me which code to change thanks.

The main function in php is actually encoded into the core of php itself, not a callable function.

 

http://www.php.net/function.main

 

The most likely problem that you are encountering is that the included files are not being found. Have you tried checking that the files are in the correct path and are not corrupt?

I cant believe more people are replying to the pop image thing than a FATAL ERROR of a site@@@@

[germ]

It says it can't find this file:

 

/home/giellacu/public_html/admin/includes/boxes/configuration.php

 

If you've verified the file does exist, check the permissions.

 

They should be 644

 

As a test, I renamed that file on my site to something else, and received the exact same error.

 

So, if the file is there, and all the permissions are right, it should be found.

would it help for me to go ahead and download oscommerce again and replace the file I have with the new one? I will re-check that directory to make sure though.

 

Whats a "644"??

[germ]

644 would be read/write permissions for the file owner, and read-only for everyone else.

 

I don't think replacing the file is the way to go, as it's not a problem with the file per se, just finding it.

You don't have a backup of your site on your PC?

:unsure:

 

That's a disaster just waiting to happen....

:o

[giellacustoms]

Well I backed it up last week but it seems it only backed up half the site, thats the last time I dont check it to make sure it did it right. Is there a way you can upload your PHP file because I dont know how to create a document with that extenson. Thanks.

How come you edited the admin column_left file?

[Guest]

Open notepad or a similar text editor and copy and paste the code in :

Click File->Save As

 

Enter the filename as configuration.php

 

Change Save as type : to All Files

 

Save the file to the correct location and upload to your site.

 

Agreed, you should ensure you backup files before making changes. :thumbsup:

[giellacustoms]

Thanks again everyone. I dont remember editing my column_left.php for anything, in fact I am not 100% sure what that php does. I am thankful you guys are helping. I will try this tonight and see what happens.

That's the one from your Catalog, not Admin...

:blush:

[germ]

Are you sure you uploaded the file into this folder:

 

/home/giellacu/public_html/admin/includes/boxes

oh the admin no, I will recheck

[giellacustoms]

I figured it out, I was completely missing the "boxes" folder, once I inserted it, it works fine now......So how do i go about making paypal work so that when someone pays with paypal, I get the order form. I know i have to install a module but please make it a simple one :)

[germ]

Use the Paypal IPN Module.

 

I installed it in about 15 minutes.

 

After installing it you'll get a few errors, but the instructions say you will, and tell you how to fix them.

 

One thing is though, I believe you have to have a "Merchant account" at Paypal to use this. But, I'm not positive.
