New Messages on index.php

I tried this:

require($pun_root.'pms/header_new_messages.php');

But i got this:

Warning: Unable to access ./forum/pms/header_new_messages.php in /customers/art4gamers.net/art4gamers.net/httpd.www/sheep.php on line 193

Fatal error: Failed opening required './forum/pms/header_new_messages.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear:/usr/share/php/PEAR') in /customers/art4gamers.net/art4gamers.net/httpd.www/sheep.php on line 193

First, the errormessage mentions the file sheep.php. What's that? That line should be in header.php...

Second, are you sure header_new_messages.php exists in the pms-directory?

Third, if it exists, does it have the right permissions so the webserver can open it?

I think he wants it to be like this, on the index.php page on his site, not the forum index.php:

I don't know the code, havn't installed the PM script... yet. But i will, I would like the code by hand then

Actually i don't think you need to.

U can just contact the man behind http://www.cactuz.nu/ because he has already made it.

I've tried to solve it now, and the code below works (almost :P) fine for me:

<?php
    
    define('PUN_TURN_OFF_MAINT', 1);
    define('PUN_QUIET_VISIT', 1);
    
    $pun_root = './punbb-pms/';
    @include $pun_root.'include/common.php';
    
    // If PUN isn't defined, config.php is missing or corrupt
    if (!defined('PUN'))
        exit('config.php doesn\'t exist or is corrupt. Please run install.php to install PunBB first.');

    if ($cookie['is_guest']){

        echo "Guest user detected, please login instead";

    }

    else{

        echo 'Welcome '.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_user['username']);

        require($pun_root.'pms/header_new_messages.php');
        echo $tpl_temp;
    
    }
    
?>

The problem is that $tpl_temp points to the url "href='message_list.php'", so the link don't really work. I can't help you with the problem where you can't include the file, unless you give us the url to the forum. I'm quote sure you have som path problem somewhere.
