can you please output this code for debugging at the top of the page after $maincore_path?

echo $_SERVER{'DOCUMENT_ROOT'} . $maincore_path;
exit();

This way I can see your server vars and the whole require path..

thanks a lot.

I have files as following:
http://www.simplenunique.com/maincore.php

http://simplenunique.com/chat/install.php,

the path for maincore, i tried /maincore.php; and then to avoid any mistakes put the whole path as http://www.simplenunique.com/maincore.php

I still get message The maincore.php was not found.
Please make sure the path is correct in your installation.

The path I am changing is in custom.php.

Any idea what’s happenign I am not so good at this it seems
