You can't access this file directly...
Fresh install of nuke 7.0.

When I try to make any non Stock module as the main page in nuke...

I get that error.

I did look really long and hard for the fix.

No luck on the suggested fixes.

So I turn to Mr Raven the expert!
Dang how does he know this stuff? Embarassed

If any one has ever fixed this error, I would like to know.

Thanks gang!

Jay.

Hmmmm. Not heard that one before. Can you PM me access permissions to your site?

I removed this code from the modules index.php file. (Of every module I want in the main page)

Although I need to remove it from every 3rd party module, leads me to think I have a config messed up..

Its a harsh fix, But its working and I dont see any ill effects.

YET... Very Happy

Removed from Modules index.php

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

$PHP_SELF is not being resolved. Your 'fix' will make it easier to hack your site.

If register_globals are not on then you need to change

Code:

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

to

Code:

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

or

Code:

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

I just picked up on the "non-stock" statement. So, are you saying that if, for instance, you wanted Forums as the default Home, it works?

Yes, its just new modules. I can make the stock nuke modules as the main page.

But so far, gallery and NukeC both cough and give the errors.

On your fix, do I need to do that to every Module that has the complaint of
You can't access this file directly... ?

My guess is its the authors error and not nuke?
I am reversing my edit and putting yours in my file
/modules/nukec/index.php

Thanks.

Jay!

Just try it on one to see if that is the problem.

Yes, I just compleated the edit.

The second fix worked!

Thanks!

I guess Ill do this for every 3rd party block (Module add on)

Very Happy

So far its only the new modules. I guess its some thing on my server.

Peace!

Jay!
