Two questions

Worker Joined: Dec 26, 2006 Posts: 178

If I am posting this in the wrong place, please forgive me.

I have but two questions:

1.) I can't find where to download the latest NukeSentinel on this site.

2.) I used Fantastico to install PHPNuke 7.9 and don't know which version of NukeSentinel to use.

Sorry for sounding noobish, but, I do need the help.

My apologies.

I still can't find the download with the link you provided. What am I looking for?

Click on the Downloads link that is in the header of the page (top, towards the right). Then look for NukeSentinel.

Every time I download and extract the tarball, there is nothng in the folder.

I'm confused.

This is intersting. I downloaded NukeSentinel from 10 links on this site and all of them extract empty folders.

What am I doing wrong here?

What program are you using to extract them?

Posted: Tue Dec 26, 2006 10:48 pm

WinAce. I've never had a problem before.

I downloaded a program that specifically extracts tarballs. When I extracted the file, all that was in it was a file that said content and it was nearly 11 megs big.

What does this mean:

I was unable to reach your MySQL server using the MySQL connection settings in your nuke config.php file. The exact error message that your MySQL server reported is Access denied for user 'weasel'@'localhost' (using password: YES).

It sounds like the connection parameters (database, user, password) defined in your config.php file are either incorrect or the user does not have access to the database.

I solved that problem, but, I still can't get my site to work.

And I'm still coming up empty when I download and extract files from this site. Interesting that this is the only site that does this.

Works fine when I used tar on it the other day.

Can you be more specific as to what isn't working?

Thousands of people have downloaded and extracted files from this site with no problem. I've seen similar issues with older versions of compression / decompression software, so it might help to update your software or consider other alternatives.

I use Winzip to extract the files, but before it will work properly I have to change the extension from *.tar.tar to *.tar.gz the files then extract properly.

Not sure why this makes a difference. Confused

IE has some "quirks" with some of the download types. By chance are you downloading with IE? It is not all versions, but something about WinXP SP2 and IE 6.0 combination rings a "bell".

Ah, yes. I completely forgot about that.
