The issue wulf is running into is that he has mod_rewrite on, which is pretty common.

 

And what happens is, since the App is named 'arcade', the directory holding all of the games named 'arcade' interferes with the redirection.

 

So, we are going to have to rename the arcade directory to something like 'games' (quite a bit of work on this end with the installer, image locations, etc in lots of different areas).

 

Unfortunately, at this moment, I don't know of any way to rename the Application without having people Uninstall the app (which is pretty devastating, it will delete all arcade related database tables).

 

I will look into an alternative option, but it pretty much looks like we will need to rename the arcade directory.

I have also mod_rewrite on and have no problems with arcade and game install. how many games are named "arcade"? I think very few, is it not easier at remove those games?

I'm talking about the entire "arcade" directory conflicting with the app name.  If you have mod_rewrite on to get rid of index.php, do you also have the SEO optimization enabled?  If you did, you would see a couple of issues (especially with links) where it will rewrite into the arcade folder and most likely pick up the index.html in there (if one exists, which it should)... bringing up a blank page.

You've actually got duplicates going on with <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>, once at the top and once at the bottom.

 

Anyway, it shouldn't hurt anything.

And if I delete it, does the arcade work?
i can upload again, if an update comes

The big difference I see between your site and the others is that you have your installation in a sub directory ( /ipb ) and the ones who are having problems do not, not sure if it means anything but food for thought

but how can ipb 4 be used to copy / install to the subdirectory ?

Maybe that is point - and i have nothing in htaccess file

very simple - just make one folder and upload IPS 4 files there and start install.

I do not use an .htaccess file either, except for using php 7.x

Ganz einfach: Erstellen Sie einen Ordner, laden Sie dort IPS 4-Dateien hoch und starten Sie die Installation.

the arcade has no install

If you already have arcade - you should run upgrade - not install

 

sorry just a little lost on what it is you are currently trying to do, are you trying to reinstall the arcade or are you trying to install it fresh in a sub directory ?

 

Entschuldigung, nur ein bisschen verloren, was Sie gerade versuchen, versuchen Sie, die Arcade neu zu installieren, oder versuchen Sie, sie neu in einem Unterverzeichnis zu installieren?

Wenn Sie bereits über Arcade verfügen, sollten Sie das Upgrade ausführen und nicht installieren

 

that's what i'm doing, upload new arcade= new version

Just now, wulfx01 said:

But you had b3 before ? If so you should run upgrade - not install

@bosss I think that is what wulf is saying is that they are running the install new version in the ACP which is = to upgrade

@wulfx01 take a look in picture
