Adapting the auth.php

I am having difficulties with the auth.php file

In the documentation it says: "edit auth.php to reflect the path to your Mambo/Joomla installation."
I quess it has to do with this part in the file:

#Path to installation, NO trailing slash, /
What is a trailing slash?
What means NO trailing slash?

$mambo_opts['path'] = '/usr/local/apache/htdocs/mambo';
I suppose that the last part '/usr ..../mambo' must be changed?
But into what?

Any (Ian-)help is appreciated very much!
Cheers, HansNL

Hi Hans,

That part should be changed to the path of your Mambo or Joomla installation. No trailing slash means do not include a '/' or '\' on the end of the path. Are you using a hosting provider? What is the URL of your site?

Hello Ian,

I have removed the auth.php as per your request.
Let's come back to this subject of adapting the auth.php later.
Thanks again!

Hi Hans,

Looking at your site, it should be set to: /home/kryvkraa/iwtdb.org. So the entire line should look like:

$mambo_opts['path'] = '/home/kryvkraa/iwtdb.org';
