I added a hack for the vWar module and it has an error showing up. What the hack is is a content page just like in the normal Nuke.

The first part of the page.php follows:

// get common functions
$vwar_root = "./";

require($vwar_root . "includes/functions_common.php");
require($vwar_root . "includes/functions_front.php");

// do the quickjump
doQuickjump($GPC['quickjumptarget']);
$quickjump = loadQuickjump($GPC["PURE_PHP_SELF"]);

//template-cache, standard-templates will be added by script:
$vwartpllist="content_page";
$vwartpl->cache($vwartpllist);

// header.php
include ($vwar_root . "includes/get_header.php");

am not familir with vWar however that error normally says either of several things

1. The file is really not there, something went wrong with the installation - in which case you try and reinstal the files againl.
2. The file is there but the web server does not have the right to open it - check your permissions.
3. There is a .htaccess file somewhere in the directory hierarchy that denies access.
4. There is something wrong with the include path of the PHP interpreter.

one of those conditions or maybe even 2 could be causing it. Sorry I cant be more certain...until you run an analyzer

Well the hack was for vWar standalone, and not for the ported version of vWar for Nuke. Most of the posts were in German and I didn't see anywhere what flavor of vWar this hack was for.

Now my next question is how can I get this hack written for the standalone vWar to work on the vWar 1.5 for PHPNuke?

Is there a tut with clear steps on what it takes to port something written in PHP to Nuke?

I've seen several sites that use vWar....have you checked the vWar site to see if they have one already ported? You have a better chance of posting it there since that is their product and they should at least offer support for it

When I asked the author of the hack how hard it would be to port to Nuke, here was his responce:

i dont know to code nuke, but i wont code it for nuke. but has nuke no a such function or a plugin/block to download?

The guy is German.

So no tutorials on porting to Nuke?

I am not familiar with vWar so I don't know if there is a tut or not.....have you tried doing a google for it?

also, you may want to see if they cna provide you with a list of other sites that have vWar. You can then see if they have what you need

I am not asking specifically about vWar anymore. Do you know where I can find a good tutorial on porting a php application to PHPNuke?

I have not seen any tuts for porting. You can read the Nuke-How-To and the PHP Manual in the web tools section

but that's about it
