module not allowed to be homepage module

Has anyone ran into this?

Now that it's a new month I want a new module as my Homepage module. I want to use a add on module, but when I change it to be the homepage one and then visit the homepage it says 'You can't access this file directly...'

That seems so weird to me .. but most everything is LOL

There is a post from me about that around here somewhere. Check the 6.5 forum. I'll go look there myself real quick.

It was in the 6.9 forum.

Well that's not the fix .... but thanks for looking.

Mine says

Code:

if (!eregi("modules.php", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])) {


    die ("You can't access this file directly...");


}

And Raven's fix looks the same

Raven wrote:

Modify this line

Code:

        if (!eregi("modules.php", $PHP_SELF)) die ("You can't access this file directly...");

to this

Code:

        if (!eregi("modules.php", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])) die ("You can't access this file directly...");

Hmmmm. Any other ideas?

If you are using Nuke Patched try changing $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] to $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']

I am patched with your patches .... but that didn't work either

Any other ideas?
