Can't make a new forum

I hope I can make this forum work. I searched the support forum for 2 years back and find no solutions. I might have a setting wrong but I don't know. I'm very new to this. I've installed all componets and have regestered my self as super. I have all the correct pages for my clients. When I start a new forum or add a new topic to the existing test forum and I enable it Joo!BB will not let me access my board Index. It gives me a 500 page. I had to change the test forum and topic to suit my needs. If I add a new topic I still get the 500 page. Please help I really want this to work.

Thanks,

Re: Can't make a new forum

Should be an easy problem. Did you accept the usage terms for your user? Check that in the JooCM backend, Users section, bring up your user and check to see if "Agreed Terms" is set to yes? If not, click it to yes, save and try again.

If that is not your issue, go into the JooBB control panel and click on the "Board", bring up your forum and insure that the forum permissions are set to the user level that your user is set to, or move your user assignment up to a level that is needed for your forum for now.

Let me know how this works for you.

I'm getting this message

500 - JDatabaseMySQL::query: 1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'ORDER BY p.id' at line 6 SQL=SELECT p.id FROM jos_joobb_posts AS p INNER JOIN jos_joobb_topics AS t ON t.id = p.id_topic INNER JOIN jos_joobb_forums AS f ON f.id = t.id_forum WHERE p.id_topic = ORDER BY p.id

Hope this helps?

What versions of mysql, php and apache are you running?

Re: Can't make a new forum

from my CPanel


MySQL version 5.0.89-community
Apache version 2.2.14
PHP version 5.2.11
cPanel Pro 1.0 (RC1)

Re: Can't make a new forum

My best guess is that the version of mysql that you are using is very old as it's not even 5.1 which was released in early 2007! A 500 error is an internal server error which could also be CGI related, but could be driven by a mysql error.

Is this your own server or a leased server as if it's your own, AT YOUR OWN RISK, you may consider upgrading mysql.
