Hi ive manged to set up self hosting and i need my secret which i happen to have forgot anyone know how i get tthis considering BT dont do email support etc ? Any help appreciated many thanks Chris

Anyone ?

Try this : Got to your account at buzztouch....not to your self hosting install. Go To : - Self-hosted servers - Click your server under Self Hosted Servers - Modify - Reset Secret (with new secret). Nota : I haven't tried it, but if you can't do anything else, it might help.

Awesome thanks a lot paddy !! its worked but im still getting a php error so i think ive still done something wrong lol

Glad it helped. What's the php error you are getting ?

yh im grateful mate the php error is this Oops, a PHP error was trapped.File: /usr/local/lib/php/head.php Line: 30 Message: Undefined index: ckey It displays on the bottom of everypage in my Server when im on it and i think its preventing me from verifying my api key because it shows api calls on here but not validated

Looks kinda serious and your right, seems to be the key again. The best bet would be to reinstall BT Server. It only takes a few minutes. If that doesn't work, then I'm out of munition. Let me know how it goes.

yh i will do mate and thanks i see how it goes lol

If you do..make a copy of your config.php file from your server first. Then you only need to copy and paste the database configs to new install config.php. It's real quick and you don't lose any apps or custom files.

i haven even done any apps yet hahaha just trying to ge tmy head round this lol be handy if someone could teamview it and make sure its all right lol

Sorry don't have teamview but I'd recommend this. Download BT server 2.1.6 again. Their is an install pdf guide in the download. Copy over your old files. In fact, it's just the same as updating the server. So when 2.1.7 comes out, you'll have no worries. You'd already know how to do it. If that doesn't work, I'd delete my the entire server install since you don't have any apps yet. At least that what, your sure everything is fresh and clean. If that doesn't work, crack open a six pack or finish the bottle of whiskey. This is great for inspiration !

yeah im using a free hosting company so im gonna redo everything new domain new database the lot and see how i get on i'll probably be back here in about an hour lol

Yep, sometimes it's hard to set permissions with free hosting. Good idea and good luck.

Yeah ive tried again and still no joy This probably has to be the longest ever install of BT server totaling almost 20 hours or so now and still no better off hahaha I'll get it sooner or later lol
