I also get this error message
Unable to create a new configuration file: No such file or directory at /home/ffrecom/public_html/forums/ubbcgi/cp_ubbnews.cgi line 110.
Someone in the first pages of this topic had a similar problem. Is there any solution ? Do I have to create a directory somewhere because the text files doesnt say anything
Thanks in advance

Yes, you need to create a directory called ubbnews in your cgi directory.

Hi, after I finaly get it work with SSI I have a new problem. I set font color in style sheet und the news text itself will remain black. example : http://dragon-clan.ognhosting.de/index.shtml If I take a look in the output as source I see: [td align="left" valign="top"][font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#0099ff"]News: blubb[/font][/td] there is only color="#0099ff" there and not "font color". Is this the mistake ? How I can correct this ?

I had the same problem as somebody else here, but I didn't hear anything about the answer: [an error occurred while processing this directive] This is what I get when I try to do my SSI. What does this mean?

I solved this by changing the exec command to this: [!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/ubbnews.cgi?ns_id=1" --] Now it works, but I have another problem. This looks on my site like this: ![[Linked Image]](http://home.snafu.de/van.dusen/pic1.jpg) I se another UBB 6.05 Board and it look so: ![[Linked Image]](http://home.snafu.de/van.dusen/pic2.jpg) What goes wrong ?

Make sure the wordlets are set. Go to your CP and select Modifications Wordlets List and make sure nothing is blank.

Durango, you get 100 Point's ! *THANK YOU* thats it  *dance* This is missing in the install.txt and I overview it. Now, the last point: why is my news text black and not #0099ff ? Have I to set the news text color in my html document by my own ? will it not be taken from the style sheet ? example: http://dragon-clan.ognhosting.de/index.shtml Update: I see that I must set the color in the HTML document. Now all works fine. Great hack, I love it [ 12-06-2001 02:34 AM: Message edited by: Zarzal ]

I think VAXC3 and myself have the exact same problem, and so did somebody else earlier, but I don't recall anybody saying what the code fix was??
Content-type: text/html
Software error:
Undefined subroutine &main::NewsRow called at ubbnews.cgi line 126.
For help, please send mail to......etc.
What code do I need to change, or how to fix this problem? Thanks for the help!

Hi, again a new little style problem. I use the ssi to display the last 4 entrys of a forum on my homepage. Only the links without text. How do I change the appearance of this outoput ? It seems, that my style seetings will be ignored and only used if I display the whole article. To see what happend take a look at www.dragon-clan.de To the right we have some examples. I try to set style sheets on my own but they will also be ignored. It must have something to do how the script gather the information to display it. Anyone out there who can give me usefull tips to change this ? I like to display the links so as on the left side under 'Content' Thanks.

Hi ubbdev, before anyone curses me, I'm stupid, and I do suffer from dyslexia so I can't read all the before hand replies. Again, I apologize for that.. Anyway, to my point, My ubbnews works, thats settled, as can be viewed here : http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/~smackdown/sdnforums/ubbnews.cgi?ns_id=1 But with the shtml I have a problem. I have newspro/coranto and that runs under shtml, and works fine. But with the UBBnews, I have a small problem, you see in my ftp, I upload like this (My url being http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/~smackdown) and I upload to cgi-bin/sdnforums/ultimatebb.cgi for example, but when I call from browser its http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/~smackdown/sdnforums/ So before I make mistakes, to what I can't fix, can someone please help me? Also, when I go here : http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/~smackdown/sdnforums/ubbnews.cgi?ns_id=1 the text shows up black, I think someone had the same problem, and someone said its Mods Wordlets. Well, I checked my wordlets, they are all there, just the font in the actual topic heading is black. Is this default? Do I need to set a white text setting in a shtml page to fix this when I finally call it through ssi? Thanks with any help  CNA.

I solved yet this problem I have to modify the template file and remove the font= there so I can use my own style settings from the homepage.
Now I m in search why the ubb style template is ignored while display header only.

Hello again, last time I switch my board from 6.05 to 6.1.0.3 and rehack it completly new. This hack seems to work but I noticed difficulties. Can it be that is a problem with the cache ? I dont use the accelerator but turned cache on. Under 6.1.0.3 my news over ssi will be displayd only I clear the cache first. Seems not to be the browser cache. Is anyone out there who have the same problem ? Or will it work for you on 6.1.0.3 without problems ? I like to turn cache on again. Can anyone please help me ? Thank you. I installed the following hacks in order: Modification Wordlets from WOL pack WOL 4.1.0 Public Beta 2.0 Avatar Pull Down Hack v1.0 Public Beta Custom Title/Rank v1.1 Public Beta Calendar for UBB 6.1 by jordo & LK Version 1.9 UBBNews HACK VERSION: 2.0.0b1.3 UBB Integrated Polls for Ubb6.1.x(Ver 2.0) Sticky threads for Ubb 6.1.0 ver 1.5 Chat version 1.21 Stats Hack 1.1 Print Page for Ubb 6.1.x ver 1.0 Anchor Hack 8.1.1 Memberlist 6.4.1 Views Counter (For UBB 6.1.0.2 and above) Version: 5.0 News Fader Hack (For UBB 6.1) Version: 4.1 Homepage : http://dragon-clan.ognhosting.de/hp.shtml UBB : http://dragon-clan.ognhosting.de/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi Update:Now I install for testing a fresh clean UBB 6.1.0.3, put in Modification Wordlets from WOL pack and WOL 4.1.0 Public Beta 2.0. All Work fine, then UBB news. Same effect. With cache turned on my HP dosn't change. Clear cache and new news will displayed. There must be bug in the Script.

Thanks guys for the code -- works great on 6.1.0.3. For the gent asking about the caching in 6.1.0.3 I run my board with caching off. But, i tested the Ubbnews with caching turned on. I don't get any display issues, but the topics of the day do not seem to refresh properly within the ssi included shtml page. -- probably adding a random number somewhere in the meta tags would do it. Also, i might have my tags to set up to refresh once a day or so.. Also, im probably not the best guinea pig, as i hacked up the ubbnews extensively. Changed the tables around alot, added a different date format, enabled graphics, added backgrounds, etc etc... you can check it out though if ya want to see if your display problems are similar to mine @ http://test.altereddestiny.net Once again, thank you for the hack. If ya want my altered code segments, just send an email.

I too had to use virtual include to get it to work can you guys check out mine http://www.gixxer.com/main.shtml I had to massage the script a bit to modify how the output looked does my page load slow? also is there a way to speed up the script? Can it tie into the UBB cache? does using the "limit characters" cause the script to run slower than just pulling in the whole topic?

Could you explain how you managed to enable graphics. I really think that would make a real added value to the UBB news hack.

It seems to load ok and looks good. It would require some re-work to get it to work with the cache tho. I had problems with the "limit characters" in that if the limit landed on a link or something all of the html would be screwed up due to a missing " etc...
For the errors you other guys are getting, it's a bad install, please restart from backups and pay a little closer attention to detail
Once again, cp-integration is cool, but I installed this modification back during 6.03 and haven't touched it since. I uploaded the files and manually set the variables and didn't touch one UBB file in the process, it runs fine (and has through 6.04, 6.05, 6.1.0.x and will do the same for the coming 6.2.0.x). We are using it in 3-4 places on our index page now.

It's just a matter of editing the template file to how ever you want it... give it a shot and let me know if you can't figure it out

Thanks for your advice.

I need to turn cache on again. My board slows down without it. Any chance to solve this problem in the near future ? I test it again on 6.1.0.3 on a fresh test UBB and the output dosn't update if cache is turned on. On UBB 6.05 all works very fine...

We've been using this modification since 6.03 with the cache turned on and haven't had any problems with it. We've got 3 instances of it running on our index.php page and there's no problem with it updating. If it isn't working for you, maybe it's the cache settings on your server itself conflicting with your ub cache settings. There isn't many possibilities for error if you have everything installed correctly.

There's a line or 2 about graphics in your ubb_news.cgi file. Comment that out.

Never mind... I found it.
Instead of stripping the images is it possible to edit the path to the images for the Smilies?
i.e. src="../ubbpath/wink.gif"
instead of src="wink.gif"
The easy thing would just be to copy the smilies to the root.....
But with some people paying for storage I would think that duplicating images would be wasteful.
Also it would be nice if this were an option in the control panel wether or not to strip the images.

I update from 6.05 to 6.1.0.3. To do this I hacked the whole UBB completly new. Under 6.05 this hack works excelent. I notice the cache problem first time with 6.1.0.3
So I set up a test UBB without any hacks, installed fresh with no update. I put in UBB news and Wordlet Modifikation, set up a test homepage and try it to see what happend.
I create some test news. The first one will display on my test homepage, all next will be hidden. If I clear the cache they will be displayed. This can be reproduced all the time.
I rent serverspace and nothing is changed on it while we switch from 6.05 to 6.1.0.3
Do you have any tips for me to investigate this issue ? I like to fix this fast and use my cache again.
Update
I must clear only Forum Summary Page Cache without touching the other 3 caches to update the output of the script. Maybe this help to find the problem.
