vbDrupal 4.6

Warning: mkdir(files): Permission denied

When I visit the Settings page I get the following error:

warning: mkdir(files): Permission denied in /.../includes/file.inc on line 91.
The directory files does not exist. 

Drupal uses a single directory for the storage of various files (for example attachments to content). When you visit the settings page it will check if the file directory exists and tries to create it when it doesn't exist.

However if the webserver doesn't have write permission (and it shouldn't) in the directory where the file directory will be created you'll get an error. In order to fix this first think about the name of the directory you want to use. By default Drupal uses the name "files".

Cookie path and domain

Depending on your site layout you might need to change the cookies settings within vBulletin. This page will guide you to the settings you'll have to make.

Installing vbDrupal 4.6

Installation:

1.  Download the latest version of vbDrupal.

2. Edit the file forum/drupal/sites/default/config.php_new and enter your drupal and forum directory path. Save as config.php, then upload the full drupal directory as is (in full) to a directory of your choosing on your server. You may rename the drupal directory to something else if you want.

3. Import the product-drupal.xml file through your product/plugin menu. The steps, in case you have not used the product manager before, are: go to your AdmincCp -> Plugin Systems -> Product Manager -> Manage Products. Clcik on Add/Import Products links, click the "Browse" button, locate the product-drupal.xml file on your local PC drive, select it, and click "yes" to the "Allow Overwrite" option, and click "Import".
