Go to System Admin>Modules The names you provide there will reflect how they are displayed in the main menu on your site

In the Same window that you named your Module item, set the number to '0'. This will hide your module from the menu and keep it activated for your needs.

I am trying hard to fix the cdbase module even i have the slightest knowledge of php. I desprately need that module.

Is the any reference to make the simplest module? or a basic 1.

Lets say user enter his name and email and URL.
and the module shows it up accordingly. something like that.

I think what ksatpro is looking for is a system that can find zip codes in the general vacinity of the one entered by the user. That would require some knowledge of the logic behind zip code distribution and then you would have to create a system to recognize zip codes and thier neighbors. xDirectory doesn't have that capability as of yet.

I would be interested in finding that solution as well.

If you have acces to the windows box, then all you need to do is check off the Read-Only box in properties.

Unfortunately I can't access my server on FTP, so can't help on the permissions from there. However I use Ace-FTP Freeware and it works great, very easy to change permissions.

I've never used IIS for Xoops, or any hosting package for that matter.

If you a run a search on ISS Permissions, you might be able to gain information from others experience, but I suspect you did this already.

All I can suggest is that check for other folders/files that may need special permission via IIS. It has been done before, but the answers are harder to find then your common chmod related questions.

I'm no IIS expert, so bear with me...

Check for access rights on common.php

Make sure that you also give the IUSR account read/write/modify permissions to any modules that have a cache directory or you'll run into more issues....

Set permissions for /template_c directory and cache directories

Check that your mainfile.php is writeable by all during install, then set back to something tighter for just yourself

I'm sure there are others that I am missing, and I sure others will be able to contribute. There are quite a few people that use IIS here.

This probably isn't the problem, but 1.4 doesn't look like the correct MySQL version. It should be 3.x or 4.x.

I'm pulling my hair out on the install. I've read through all posts and can't find an answer. Here goes...

IIS 5
PHP 4.1
MySql 1.4
Xoops 2.0.6

On first check the installer says write permissions are fine on the folders and files that need write permission.

But after entering database info, the installer throws an error stating: (../mainfile.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\xoops\html\install\class\mainfilemanager.php

I've read all about CHMOD however you can't do that on IIS.
Perhaps that's where I'm wrong - maybe I can do it with IIS and am just plain ignernt. I tried it with WS_FTP then downloaded CuteFTP PRO and tried it again. Neither will let me set any permissions.

I did set full write permissions in IIS but am stuck.

I know IIS isn't officially supported but someone out there must have an answer.

I know switching to Apache is one option...but that is an absolute last reort.

Thanks for any and all help!!
