Please Help ME!

Wondering why that MOD you have won't install correctly? Let's take a look
Forum rules
DO NOT give out any FTP passwords to anyone! There is no reason to do so! If you need help badly enough, create a temporary FTP account that is restricted to only the files that you need help with and give the information for that. Giving out FTP information can be very dangerous!

What's the rest of the path? You should include the full URL to your board, plus admin/mods/easymod/easymod_install.php. Also, font case is important on Linux serveres. Forum is not the same as FORUM or forum even if they all have the same parent folder. These are 3 separate folders on Linux servers...

Ok, the path looks good. Did you create a mods folder in the Forum/admin directory, then upload the easymod folder to the admin/mods folder? Make sure you named the new folder mods and not MODS or Mods or mod or Mod or MOD...

Make sure that you maintained the folder structure when you unzipped the EM download. This should be what you see when you look in the easymod folder:
  • Image easymod - 3 files, 4 sub-folders
    • Image em_includes - 6 files
    • Image includes - 14 files, one sub-folder
      • Image sql - 6 files
    • Image languages - 2 files
    • Image templates - 23 files
  1. Image easymod - 3 files, 4 sub-folders
    • Image em_includes
    • Image includes
    • Image languages
    • Image templates
    • Image easymod.gif
    • Image easymod_display_functions.php
    • Image easymod_install.php
  2. Image em_includes - 6 files
    • Image em_cipher.php
    • Image em_ftp.php
    • Image em_functions.php
    • Image em_modio.php
    • Image em_schema.php
    • Image index.htm
  3. Image includes - 14 files, one sub-folder
    • Image sql
    • Image admin_easymod.php.txt
    • Image emc.gif
    • Image mod_complete.tpl
    • Image mod_diy_body.tpl
    • Image mod_header.tpl
    • Image mod_help.tpl
    • Image mod_history.tpl
    • Image mod_history_details.tpl
    • Image mod_install.tpl
    • Image mod_login.tpl
    • Image mod_preview.tpl
    • Image mod_process.tpl
    • Image mod_settings.tpl
    • Image mod_sql_body.tpl
  4. Image includes/sql - 6 files
    • Image sql_builder.php
    • Image sql_builder_mssql.php
    • Image sql_builder_mysql.php
    • Image sql_builder_postgresql.php
    • Image sql_parser.php
    • Image sql_reserved_keywords.php
  5. Image languages - 2 files
    • Image lang_easymod_english.php
    • Image lang_sql_parser.php
  6. Image templates - 23 files
    • Image display_debug.tpl
    • Image display_debug_footer.tpl
    • Image display_error.tpl
    • Image empw_settings.tpl
    • Image error.tpl
    • Image file_access.tpl
    • Image form_settings.tpl
    • Image ftp_settings.tpl
    • Image helpwin.tpl
    • Image hidden_access.tpl
    • Image install_info.tpl
    • Image nuttzy.jpg
    • Image page_footer.tpl
    • Image page_header.tpl
    • Image page_start.tpl
    • Image step1_classic.tpl
    • Image step1_simple.tpl
    • Image step1b_ftp.tpl
    • Image step1b_nowrite_nocopy.tpl
    • Image step1b_simple.tpl
    • Image step1b_write_copy.tpl
    • Image step1b_write_nocopy.tpl
    • Image step1c_empw.tpl
Then check the file and folder permissions...

CHMOD Permissions

Do you have the permissions of the folders set to 755 and the files set to 644? On most boards, the folder permissions must be set to 755 and the file permissions to 644. However on some, such as Awardspace and Lycos, the folder and file permissions MUST BE set to 755. Check some of your other non-EM file and folder permissions to determine what works on your site...

You can probably find instructions on how to do that at the site that provides your FTP application. I'm sure it varies from application to application...

I use SmartFTP. All you need to do is click on a folder or file in the right hand viewer and choose Properties/CHMOD or Alt+Enter

Then you can either enter the value, like 755 or 644, or you can click on the read, write, execute options, which do the same thing...

You can do that if you want. Send me a PM if you want to go that route...

I can see that you named the mods folder MODS, which is wrong. You want to rename it mods. Then this path will work for you:

Code: Select all
