when do you get that error?  any of the admin pages you try to load?

are you sure the install completed without any errors or warning?  do the files that are listed as missing actually exist?  they would be created as part of the install…

The install page says complete then on that same screen this appears

Warning: require(/home/scents14/public_html/wp-content/sp-resources/forum-themes/barebones/admin/sp-barebones-activate.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/scents14/public_html/wp-content/plugins/simple-press/sp-startup/install/sp-install.php on line 1043

Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required ‘/home/scents14/public_html/wp-content/sp-resources/forum-themes/barebones/admin/sp-barebones-activate.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/scents14/public_html/wp-content/plugins/simple-press/sp-startup/install/sp-install.php on line 1043

I click the Go to Forum admin and I get a message when the page loads that says

You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.

I went in the file manager the files are there. I looked on line 1043 of the sp-install.php and the line reads

require SF_STORE_DIR.’/sp-resources/forum-themes/barebones/admin/sp-barebones-activate.php’;
            sp_barebones_setup(false);

I am assuming that the sp_barebones_setup(false); should say true??

No – the code is right but it looks from what you say that you have a permissions problem with one of the folders. Odd that that should happen but not impossible.

Are you able to check the permissions on all of the folders and files under the /barebones folder? They should all be the same as the parent wp-content folder.

There isn’t a barebones folder there is a sp-resources folder

In in there is

forum-avatar-pool

forum-avatars

forum badges

forum-cache

forum-custom-icons

forum-feature-images

forum-smileys

There is not themes folder.

Should I upload what is missing manually?

wow – that IS an odd one.

In the main ‘simple-press’ folder in the WP ‘plugins’ folder can you please go to:

simple-press/sp-startup/install/

and in that folder should be a file named ‘sp-resources-install-part2.zip‘

It looks like this file contains the items you are missing and, for some reason, has failed to unzip in your install. I must be honest and say I have no idea why – especially as the part1 zip file clearly did.

Yes its there.

I extracted it but do those 3 folders

forum-language

forum-plugins

forum-themes need to be moved into the sp-resources folder?

sorry – i should have said. Yes they do.

Alright thank you your help! It WORKS now!

Excellent. And we will probably never know why that failed!

I also having the same problem.

When the installation said “Completed” and click Go To  Forum Admin, I’m represented with “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.“

There were no errors during the installation.

Hey Wow 64,

I don’t believe the OP was getting errors during installation either, the errors they’ve posted come from either the SP error log or the PHP error log. Are you getting these errors also? If so, can you follow the steps on the last page?

If you have no errors, it’s worth remembering that the notice you’re seeing could also be because you’re not logged in as the WP admin that installed Simple Press. WP and SP admins not the same, so just another check to make.
