I am using cnstats for tracking, and need to put the code into my b2evolution blog, and for some reason when I put it in the _main.php like this:

<?
include "/usr/home/tabitha/public_html/jonstern/cnstats/cnt.php";
?>

it brings up some mysql errors, and won't let certain things access the database correctly

here is the page I am trying to put it in...any ideas on how to do this without getting those errors? i know I probably have to tell it to grab that file another way, but I am not sure how

This is more Sarettah's area but I need to point out that you've left a <? out at the begining of the call, it should be:

* @subpackage helsinki

It might not be the answer but it's a start.

I looked. I don't see anything wrong there (or at least anything that souldn't work from a quick glance)

But, you said that "it brings up some mysql errors, and won't let certain things access the database correctly" when you place it where you want it.

That sounds to me like something in the cnt.php is conflicting somewehere.

Is the cnt.php using calls to the same MYSql connection as the main script, or is it creating a new connection to pull from ?

Does the cnt.php script possibly close the existing MYSql connection ?

Have you tried placing the cnt.php into the same folder as the main script and calling it from there (without the full pathing) ?

Another way to debug stuff like this is to make a copy of the main, cut and paste all of the cnt.php into the copy exactly where you want it and see if it works, if nothing else it might pop a more accurate error for you.

If you want to zap a copy of cnt.php to me I will take a look and see if I can see anything glaring out at me :)

I took a look and voila, it all works.

So, I will send my bill.... dammit :yowsa:

(lololol...the last email I sent before I came back here was "Do you have this set up somewhere so I can see the errors you're getting"...lolololol....
