    First thing is to get past the 'Bonk' message.

    You need to access the Vanilla/conf folder on your webserver, and

    if you are using vanilla >= 2.0.18 Put

    $Configuration['Garden']['Debug'] = TRUE; `
    

    and if its < 2.0.18 put

    `$Configuration['Garden']['Errors']['MasterView'] = 'deverror.master.php';`
    

    in your config.php file.

    This will give you a detailed error message, rather than the 'Bonk' one. Once you have that, either it will help you see what to do, or else you can post another question, asking specifically about the error.

  • I add that codes but didn't work, don't show errors

  • i have >= 2.0.18

  • @Leo_alvarez which code did you add to your conf/config.php?
    both of them? Then show the contents of your conf/config.php in this thread and DELETE your MySQL username, MySQL Password, MySQL DataBase information.

    You can also show all the information BELOW the MySQL information.

    Do not add the codes to your conf/config.php, but you have to change the current settings.

    I'm getting the 'bonk' error when trying to upload the dummy vanilla content for upload. I have added the first line of code to my config.php file with no effect (I still get the 'bonk' screen rather than any details of the error.)

    Here's my config.php:

    <?php if (!defined('APPLICATION')) exit();
    
    // Conversations
    $Configuration['Conversations']['Version'] = '2.0.18.4';
    
    // Database
    $Configuration['Database']['Name'] = '********';
    $Configuration['Database']['Host'] = '********';
    $Configuration['Database']['User'] = '********';
    $Configuration['Database']['Password'] = '********';
    
    // EnabledApplications
    $Configuration['EnabledApplications']['Conversations'] = 'conversations';
    $Configuration['EnabledApplications']['Vanilla'] = 'vanilla';
    
    // EnabledPlugins
    $Configuration['EnabledPlugins']['GettingStarted'] = 'GettingStarted';
    $Configuration['EnabledPlugins']['HtmLawed'] = 'HtmLawed';
    
    // Garden
    $Configuration['Garden']['Debug'] = TRUE;
    $Configuration['Garden']['Title'] = 'Platoon XIII';
    $Configuration['Garden']['Cookie']['Salt'] = '';
    $Configuration['Garden']['Cookie']['Domain'] = '';
    $Configuration['Garden']['Registration']['ConfirmEmail'] = TRUE;
    $Configuration['Garden']['Email']['SupportName'] = 'Platoon XIII';
    $Configuration['Garden']['Version'] = '2.0.18.4';
    $Configuration['Garden']['RewriteUrls'] = TRUE;
    $Configuration['Garden']['CanProcessImages'] = TRUE;
    $Configuration['Garden']['Installed'] = TRUE;
    $Configuration['Garden']['Theme'] = 'BrandFriendly';
    
    // Plugins
    $Configuration['Plugins']['GettingStarted']['Dashboard'] = '1';
    
    // Routes
    $Configuration['Routes']['DefaultController'] = 'discussions';
    
    // Vanilla
    $Configuration['Vanilla']['Version'] = '2.0.18.4';

    It says that you can upload the file manually to the upload folder but gives no explanation as to how to access it from there.
    
    any help would be most appreciated.
    
  • Sigh ^^Split^^ @mandrill can you open a new topic next time please?

    Also add this line to your config.php:

    $Configuration['Garden']['Errors']['MasterView'] = 'deverror.master.php';
