Chat is installed, however, no one shows up in online users and text can not be seen in the chat.

www.fifthavenueforum.com is my website and http://www.fifthavenueforum.com/forum/chat/index.php is the link to my chat.

Probably A SQL Problem

5AF commented 8 years ago

How do I solve that issue?

Patmacessex commented 8 years ago

Well you can start by making it easier to register to your site, I haven't got a clue who the penguins are let alone what year they won the Stanley Cup, to the point what forum software are you using...

Patmacessex commented 8 years ago

Also did you give all the correct files the correct permissions?

5AF commented 8 years ago

I apologize, I'm a novice when it comes to this stuff. Had one of my other admins help me create the databases for the config.php file. Where would I set those permissions?

Patmacessex commented 8 years ago

I need to know what sort of forum you are running and what version of ajax chat you installed... (E.G MYBB PHPBB STand Alone) If yoy want to integrate it with exicting users you need to use a different version

Patmacessex commented 8 years ago

Permissions are done via FTP or SSH using CHMOD, if a file can not be written to you can have these sort of problems, also if you installed the stand alone version you need to populate the chat as it will not run parallel with the forum. Can you login to the chat? or does nothing happen?

5AF commented 8 years ago

PHPBB 3.1 with version 3.1.8.

I downloaded and installed this version of the chat - https://github.com/Frug/AJAX-Chat/archive/phpbb3.1.zip

5AF commented 8 years ago

I can log in to the chat, but nothing happens. I ran the installer and it said it installed successfully.

Patmacessex commented 8 years ago

Do you see the chat?

This is all I see. When you type in the chat box below and submit, nothing happens.

Patmacessex commented 8 years ago

This seems to be a config problem... or a chmod problem go through the config file

Patmacessex commented 8 years ago

On a Good note I've had this in the past wrecking my brain what it was again... It's been years since I used chat

5AF commented 8 years ago

I can type in the chat box but nothing ever populates in the chat room.

Patmacessex commented 8 years ago

This is a tough one as I can't look into your configs, but it's seems to be that, e.g your config.php or SQL, I also just read that the latest version of PHPBB doesn't like Ajax Chat that much

Patmacessex commented 8 years ago

I can look into it a bit more tomorrow, as it's 11.30PM here now. all my contact details are on http://patmac.co.uk
