NukeSentinel 2.5.05. When I try to activate flood blocker, it says that i need to set the ftaccess path in Admin. However, in Admin I do not see any way to set the path. There is a field for htaccess and staccess, but not ftaccess.

How do I set the path for ftaccess so that I can enable flood blocker?

Thanks.

Is this a fresh install or an upgrade? I ask because I have the field for .ftaccess right by .htaccess and .staccess.

I had v2.4.2 previously installed. I uploaded all my new files with all the changes required for php-nuke. ftpaccess is uploaded and chmod 666. But I don't see a field for ftaccess.

Do i need to manually delete the old table and reinstall tables as if it were a new install?

Can I manually insert the patch into a config file somewhere? If so, where?

When you did the upgrade, did you run the upgrade script for every step from 2.4.2 to 2.5.05?

I would just start over and treat it as a fresh install, and wipe out the tables and install the files from the full install encase a file is missing or something, and then recreate the tables.

It really isn't that much work to go back and redo it, and you will be sure it is installed right.

In fact if you every fall more then a few updates behind on sentinel I think it best to do a full install on it, quicker I think then doing every little update in order

OK I deleted all tables and re-uploaded all the files and reinstalled as a first-time insallation. Everything works prefectly. Thanks.
