Amember Errors

I have installed the free version of amember
I get through the setup and try to go to the admin area and I get these errors.. I am unsure of what it is telling me so not sure what to look for...
can you help??

most possible your hosting provider disabled __FILE__ functionality in PHP.

Edit amember/config.inc.php and replace
$config['root_dir'] = dirname(__FILE__);
to
$config['root_dir'] = '/home/user/public_html/amember';
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - something like that but there should be your actual path
to aMember folder.

Ok I will go try that now and see what happens.... Waits to pull hair out

Ok now starts to pull hair but yet it is better.. only two lines of errors...
can you tell me what to fix next??

Your config.inc.php file is broken. If you email me FTP info and URL, I will help.

I emailed you the file.. let me know if that is not what you wanted

Same issue

Alex -

I am new to amember, and have suffered the same problems as Lady Patty. I tried the initial fix you suggested, and like Patty had the same two warning/error messages.

Parse error: parse error in //config.inc.php on line 33

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: new_smarty() in /nfs/cust/7/76/85/58677/web/amember/admin/index.php on line 22

Is there a fix to the config.inc.php file I can apply to make it work?

Thanks,

Micah

Dummy mods

Wouldn't be the first time my host did something dumb for no apparent reason.....

Thanks so much for your assistance!
