Fatal error: Call to undefined function: bb_install_header()

  • Are you supposed to install bbPress with the same or different Database information as WordPress?

    I want to integrate the two, so I used the same database information as wordpress.

    When I try to run the install, I get this error:

    “Fatal error: Call to undefined function: bb_install_header() in /home/turner/public_html/forums/bb-admin/install.php on line 11”

    Any ideas?

  • This is what the config file looks like:

    <?php

    // ** MySQL settings ** //

    define(‘BBDB_NAME’, ‘turner_wrdp3’); // The name of the database

    define(‘BBDB_USER’, ‘***********’); // Your MySQL username

    define(‘BBDB_PASSWORD’, ‘*****************’); // …and password

    define(‘BBDB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value

    // Change the prefix if you want to have multiple forums in a single database.

    $bb_table_prefix = ‘bb_’; // Only letters, numbers and underscores please!

    // If your bbPress URL is http://bbpress.example.com/forums/ , the examples would be correct.

    // Adjust the domain and path to suit your actual URL.

    // Just the domain name; no directories or path. There should be no trailing slash here.

    $bb->domain = ‘http://forums.ppacp.org&#8217;; // Example: ‘http://bbpress.example.com&#8217;

    // There should be both a leading and trailing slash here. ‘/’ is fine if the site is in root.

    $bb->path = ‘/’; // Example: ‘/forums/’

    // What are you going to call me?

    $bb->name = ‘Professional Photographers Againsts Copying Photographs’;

    // This must be set before running the install script.

    $bb->admin_email = ‘*********@ppacp.org’;

    // Set to true if you want pretty permalinks.

    $bb->mod_rewrite = false;

    // The number of topics that show on each page.

    $bb->page_topics = 30;

    // A user can edit a post for this many minutes after submitting.

    $bb->edit_lock = 60;

    // Your timezone offset. Example: -7 for Pacific Daylight Time.

    $bb->gmt_offset = -4;

    // Change this to localize bbPress. A corresponding MO file for the

    // chosen language must be installed to bb-includes/languages.

    // For example, install de.mo to bb-includes/languages and set BBLANG to ‘de’

    // to enable German language support.

    define(‘BBLANG’, ”);

    // Your Akismet Key. You do not need a key to run bbPress, but if you want to take advantage

    // of Akismet’s powerful spam blocking, you’ll need one. You can get an Akismet key at

    // http://wordpress.com/api-keys/

    $bb->akismet_key = ‘*************’; // Example: ‘0123456789ab’

    // The rest is only useful if you are integrating bbPress with WordPress.

    // If you’re not, just leave the rest as it is.

    $bb->wp_table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // WordPress table prefix. Example: ‘wp_’;

    $bb->wp_home = ‘http://ppacp.org&#8217;; // WordPress – Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash. Example: ‘http://example.com&#8217;

    $bb->wp_siteurl = ‘http://ppacp.org&#8217;; // WordPress – Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash. Example: ‘http://example.com&#8217;

    /* Stop editing */

    if ( !defined(‘BBPATH’) )

    define(‘BBPATH’, dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/’ );

    require_once( BBPATH . ‘bb-settings.php’ );

    ?>

    Help Please!

    I figured it out.

    I must have been missing some required hidden files. I deleted all my files from the server and then reuploaded them using my Windows machine,. Now it works like it should..

    Thank you!
