hi, thanks to all who dev'd pixelpost, it looks like a great piece!

ive searched all i can, and cant find what im looking for to answer my question, so am braving the veterans to ask;

Warning: Division by zero in /home/sites/xxxxxx.com/public_html/film/includes/pixelpost.php on line 6

any idea how to fix this? why is there a division here anyway? is it referring to the heiphen in the databass name ''webxx-thomasps'' ?

[thomasps]

really no one knows the prob?

i am guessing it is because my web host names my databass with a "-" in it.. is that correct?

please someone help me out. thanks

line 6 points to the version number of Pixelpost which is encoded in base64 in pixelpost.php
please have a look into pixelpost.php line 50 and tell what value you have in $version.

ah jesus. i just realised its not pointing to the database name, but to

$pixelpost_db_host = "localhost"; // database host, often "localhost"

version;

$version = "MS41IEZpbmFsIC0gSnVseSAyMDA2";

[austriaka+]

localhost for database host is right for the most database installation.
Don't confuse that with database name!

My version string (for 1.6beta!) is
$version = "MS42IEJldGEgKGxpZmUgb24gdGhlIGVkZ2UhKSAtIE1hcmNoI DIwMDc=";
In Database it says for version 1.59 which is correct for 1.6beta

i really cant see that being the problem..

its in line 6 ;

$pixelpost_db_host = 'localhost'; // database host, often "localhost"

but i cant see anything wrong there either.

fuck knows why it wont set up. this is getting ridiculous now :'( spent a long time on it, just cant figure it out :'(

im getting this error in the pixelpost admin panel... i get a different one if i try to go straight to the desired web page.. lemme just grab that..

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/sites/xxxxxxxx.com/public_html/film/index.php on line 740

is the error i get when im looking straight at the desired page i am pointing at. (xxxxxx obviously isnt actual address, just keepin it anonymous till i fix the problems!)

Do you have any special characters in your DB password?
