Problem with creating a new Guestbook

Post by sowatm »

Hi!

I have a problem with creating new Guest book. When I am going to Components -> Phoca Guestbook -> Guestbooks and there I click a Create button. Next I type the name of the guest book and click Save. And then is showing a text "Error Saving Guestbook". Did have anyone this problem??

BTW

If there are a problems with my English I apologize but I'm not very good in English

Hi,
check your database. There must be two tables for Phoca Guestbook:
jos_phocaguestbook_books
jos_phocaguestbook_items

Absolutely no! I can understand you, and this is the mean point. :)
Kind regards,

Hi

I'm glad that you understood me. But I can't find this two files, I was searching they in /administrator/components/com_phocaguestbook/ and in /components/com_phocaguestbook/ and there aren't any files with that name. Could you give me the directory to that files?

This are not files, this are tables stored in your database. You can check your database with programs like e.g. phpMyAdmin

I think this is not necessary, because you run joomla which needs a database to install, so I think your webhosting provider has already installed a program like e.g. phpMyAdmin. Please contact him.

Hi

Thanks for your advice. But I reinstalled it and everything just work good. I think it was a problem with installation.

Thanks for your involvement.

I think the problem is solved and the topic can be closed
