Hello,
I have faced the same error while trying to install FreixhatX 5.1 in the latest version of Joomla 1.5. I was trying to install it to my localhost before installing it at my live site. Then I read the post about manual installation and I tried that, but had no luck as well.
My local installation of joomla is at:
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\mysite\
I donwloaded the freichat moduled and installed it, then enabled it.
I then extracted the freichat folder like this:
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\mysite\freichat
When I extract at that location, the module doesn't load at all.
I also tried to extract freichat one folder up, like this:
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\freichat
When I extract at the above location, the module title does appear, but nothing else. If I use Firebug, I see the following under the module title:
<script>
alert('module freichatx says: arg.php file not
found!');
</script>
I have manually edited the file arg.php and entered the following:
$con='mysql';
$username='myusername';
$password='mypassword';
$client_db_name='mydbname';
$host='localhost';
$driver='Joomla';
$db_prefix='jos_';
$uid='4dc6afa542f21';
I also tried 'mysqli' instead of 'mysql' since this is what I'm using, but no luck either. I also tried '127.0.0.1' instead of 'localhost'. No difference. I also tried 'localhost/mysite'. No difference
'myusername', 'mypassword', 'mydbname' are correct since the local site works fine with them.
Thanks in advance for any help!
