[Chapter 18 Base Url]

Thanks Larry, that worked. After adding an additional forward slash and fixing some compilation errors, it works great.

 

Just a side note, for what it's worth. I had some issues trying to get an email account working. After using several different programs, working through the tutorials to set them up, and at no avail, I tried one called "Test Mail Server Tool". After install and activating some lines in php.ini, the emails instantly popup. Great tool. 

[Chapter 18 Base Url]

I would like to resurrect this thread. I am having the same issue as Georgezx9; however, the thread came to an abrupt end.

 

My BASE_URL variable is assigned the value: 'http:/localhost/'.

and whenever I try to activate the new account, from the sent email, I get the same error message as Georgezx9: Object not found!, Error 404.

 

I am assuming that the address for the BASE_URL is incorrect, since the activation link isn't finding the path to the file, activation.php. I have tried various combination of paths but at no avail.

 

I am running a xampp setup.

 

The path of the activation.php file is the following:

 

C:\xampp\htdocs\ul-1\ch18\some_folder\htdocs\activate.php

 

Thank you for your help,
