Favorites Error

Postby Deviant » Fri Feb 01, 2008 12:06 pm

Hi,

I hope this is the right spot to post this.  I've been having a problem with adding to my favorites.  Everytime I add posts to my favorites and then go into my profile to view my favorites I get an error message:

An Error Has Occurred!

Error: Unable to open ./Boards/.txt
Verbose:

Is this a problem with my settings under Vista?  When I was using XP, I didn't have any problems with favorites showing up.  If so, any idea how to fix it.

Known error. Thanks

What I've been recommended to do is rebuild the index - meaning shutting the forums down backing up & the hit the rebuild button thing.

Takes a few hours - so I haven't had the right time to do it yet.

Soon - but even then it's not guaranteed to fix it -- if it doesn't I'll back it up & then try to fix it off line.

Oh ok.  Well I suppose it's good to know it's not a problem on my end.  Thanks for the response Pete.
