not sure its any of those 3 issues, not to sound like a smart ass or anything cuz im not because i got like 0 skills at php, but the problem only occured after i had installed cb connector and then REMOVED the old phpbb connector... it worked fine while phpbb connector was installed, i was thinking about installing phpbb connector again, but i cant find it anywhere
next step would be to tear down my intire website and really start over from scratch, a thing im not looking forward to doing
regardng "issue 1" the file IS there and has 777 permissions, ive checked via ftp
and i know its not the "issue 2" you mention thats causing the error, ive talked to my hosting firm and they say everything on my server can run at chmod 777
as for "issue 3" i have no clue how to set that or check it or whatnot, i got no php skills whatsoever
