Conflicting mainfile.php modifications

Hi,

I just installed Sentinel ftom "NukeSentinel_71-77_230.tar.gz" and I'm confused about the modifications I have to perfom on the mainfile.php.

The core file modifications advise me to add after the beginning:

Code:

if (defined('FORUM_ADMIN')) {


    @include_once("../../../includes/nukesentinel.php");


} elseif (defined('INSIDE_MOD')) {


    @include_once("../../includes/nukesentinel.php");


} else {


    @include_once("includes/nukesentinel.php");


}

And if I do that, I can't access the sentinel admin module and I'm requested to add:

Code:

if ($forum_admin == 1) {


  include("../../../includes/sentinel.php");


} elseif ($inside_mod == 1) {


  include("../../includes/sentinel.php");


} else {


  include("includes/sentinel.php");


}

at the beginning of the mainfile. If I comply, I can access the sentinel admin module but I can't access the forum admin module anymore.

In other words, I can either administer sentinel or phpbb... But I can't make an edit that makes both happy.

Any idea?
Thanks!

A couple of questions for you:
1) PHP-Nuke version number
2) Patched version number
3) Where you download the NS package from
4) Did you COMPLETELY REMOVE the older NukeSentinel files?

Reason for the third question is I just checked the package and every it states

Code:

if (defined('FORUM_ADMIN')) {


  @include_once("../../../includes/nukesentinel.php");


} elseif (defined('INSIDE_MOD')) {


  @include_once("../../includes/nukesentinel.php");


} else {


  @include_once("includes/nukesentinel.php");


}

Reason for question 4 is that the file hasn't been named sentinel.php in awhile now but is named nukesentinel.php . So you appear to have two versions conflicting.

Thanks for your suggestions.

(1) (2) I use PHP-Nuke 7.6 with the 3.0B patch.

(3) I got Sentinel from directly from NukeScript.

(4) Good point. I didn't have the old package so I just uploaded the new one thinking that everything would be overwritten. I need to go back and find a way to clean up the old install. Do you have any idea of the old file that would be checking for sentinel.php?

Thanks. I'll keep you posted if I manage to remove the problem file.

admin/case/case.sentinel.php

Old file that caused the problem. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
