I installed all files and imported the sql file using phpmyadmin.
I activated the module. The admin icon does show in the admin section.
I just do not get the chat window! It shows up as one single blank line...

I use Nuke 7.6, patched 3.1..

Can you post a link to your chat(that doesn't require registration Laughing

)? I can help better if I can check it out.

Yes I can, but seeing that you can not enter the chat without registering, how should I set it up for you? My website is www.larger-than-life.org

I edited the module to be visible to all visitors, including non-registered, so you can have a look at it.

gotcha, thanks for the offer to help. I managed to solve the problem by soft-switching (.htaccess) to php5. It now works like a charm.

I am having the same problem with live chat, but I am a newbie to php nuke. how exactly did you get it to work? I uploaded the folder to my root which would be the main folder. and i uploaded the db file to my phpadmin. is there anything else that needs to be uploaded? And how exactly did you soft-switch to php5?

In the root folder of your site is the file .htaccess
You should add a line to it (I did it at the beginning) which reads:

Code:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php

Save the file and you're in business!

dutchie's suggestion may work for some people, but it really depends on your host. If this doesn't work, do a search on your hosting providers website. If you can't switch to php5, I would suggest getting another host right away. php4 won't be supported or updated for much longer so it is better to get updated as soon as you can.

yeah, everything is working for me too -- but I do not get the chat window to populate. phpnuke 8.0, php5.2.5 -- but IIS -- doesn't use .htaccess files.

any suggestions? the db looks good too -- every line entered into live chat gets entered to the database.

any suggestions?

I would have to look. Open up the module or block to all visitors and drop me a link.

Did you get a chance to check out my Live Chat?

any ideas?

Yeah, my thought is that it has something to do with your mysql version. Can you find out what version of mysql you are running(You can usually find out in phpmyadmin) and let me know. I'll try to whip up a workaround asap.
