News not working !

[HighBoy]

Hi guys !

I am trying to use the news.php but i get this error whenever i try to load my startup page.

Warning: Failed opening '/xxx/yabbse/index.php?action=news;board=9;template=Ntemplate' for inclusion (include_path='.;c:\php4\pear') in x:\wolf\index.php on line 68

The line 68 is :
<? include("/xxx/yabbse/index.php?action=news;board=9;template=Ntemplate"); ?>

What am i doing wrong ?
I am using YabbSE 1.4.1 and the latest PHP version.

in windows u'll need to use c:\dirname\blabla\yse\index.php?action=news;board=3

I tried your solution, but it still don't work....
The board works, the SSI.php works, but not the news

oh wait, for news u're suppose to use http://www.yabb.info/community/index.php?action=news;board=140
i dont know if that will make a difference with path, but just try it anyway

Same result  

Warning: Failed opening 'http://wolf.dehn.net/xxx/yabbse/index.php?action=news;board=9' for inclusion (include_path='.;c:\php\includes;x:\wolf\xxx\yabbse') in x:\wolf\index.php on line 69

The funny thing is that when i put this line on my webpage i get the error
<? include("xxx\yabbse\index.php?action=news;board=9"); ?>

But if i put this one on the webpage it will show me a part of the forum
<? include("xxx\yabbse\index.php"); ?>

Any suggestions ?
(I almost give up, i have used the whole weekend trying to solve this but without luck.... maybe i should stick to my flatfile yabb   )

Thanks for the link, but i don't think the news has anything to do with ssi.php... Maybe i am wrong but i am also a n00b when it comes to YabbSE.

Could it be a PHP problem and not a Yabb problem ?

give me yoursite url and I'll take a look.

Also what tag are you using to include it on your page.

This does not work (as soon as the ?action part is added it fails)
<? include("/cgi_bin/yabbse/index.php?action=news;board=9"); ?>

This works
<? include ("/rightmenu.html") ?>

and this works (Beginning of my page)
<? require("cgi_bin/yabbse/ssi.php"); ?>

And this (recent topics)
<? recentTopics(); ?>

The link to the test site is http://wolf.dehn.net/index.php
The link to the forum is http://wolf.dehn.net/cgi_bin/yabbse/index.php
All error messages has been enabled in php.ini.

okay try this for your news:

Code Select Expand

<?include("http://wolf.dehn.net/cgi_bin/yabbse/index.php?action=news;board=9;limit=10");?>

Let me know how that works.

limit=10 change the number to how many news post you like to show up on the page.

Maybe try installing yabbse outside of your cgi-bin
php can be runed from anywhere. I wondering if it is a permission problem with the cgi-bin. I notice on your page you are getting alot of errors.

I am running it on a Windows XP box, so there should not be a problem with the permissions.
All permissions are granted......
