Topic: Error: Unable to update user visit data

Help? I don't get it. Wrong file-attributes? What should they be?

Re: Error: Unable to update user visit data

What's the full error-message? (enable debug-mode in include/common.php).

Re: Error: Unable to update user visit data

I can't even get that far. When I try to open any php-file I get this.

Re: Error: Unable to update user visit data

You edit it manually (the php-file).

Re: Error: Unable to update user visit data

What? I want to log in to my forum. /index.php
But I get this error message. Do I need to chmod anything?

Re: Error: Unable to update user visit data

I feel so dumb. I was kinda frustrated. wink Got a bit further now though. I can see the forums and posts but I can't do anything.

I seem to have read only access to my tables. How do I fix this?

Re: Error: Unable to update user visit data

That's odd. Is it your own server?

Re: Error: Unable to update user visit data

Yes. I've just installed debian for my first time and I've made a mysql user and stuff. I used mysql on my NT-server earlier and I think I have done it right this time too. But on the other hand I guess not. Or maybe this isn't a mysql-problem?

Re: Error: Unable to update user visit data

It could be a permission problem with the MySQL data dir. Here's more: http://forums.devshed.com/archive/t-15728

Re: Error: Unable to update user visit data

I can't help you then. It's a problem with your MySQL setup, not PunBB.

Re: Error: Unable to update user visit data

Hello, mods. New user here...

I am having the same problem, started after I tried to make my system a little less open to intrusion (removing the global write access of the web-server's user).

Currently, the server user (apache) has only read access to the entirety of the PHP files, but I have given the database file (running sqlite) global write access. Likewise, the cache directory has global everything access; code 777.

Still, I am coming up with this error.

File: /www/docs/bgc-rpg/include/functions.php
Line: 84

PunBB reported: Unable to update user visit data

Database reported: unable to open database file (Errno: 14)

Just what file permissions does PunBB need in order to operate?
