    Didn't install any mod in vbulletin the last month, permissions are now set to 777 for both files. Ads show but the validation just can't see them.

    Currently I am really busy. I'd love to help you out. If you can wait for next 30 hours.. I'll be completely free and will have a look on your code and other things personally.

    Till then hope if anyone else can help you out.

    Had the same problem and the only thing that solved it was creating a fresh set of the coop php pages and uploading them

    Ok I just did this and now the ads don't even show up anymore, validation again can't find them.

    So since there is zero support here from officials I guess I'm screwed.

    I got the problem by revalidating a site that was already validated. It was fine before that. I was using the .asp code which I've used before with no problems. I tried deleting the code and the txt file and uploading them fresh again but that didn't work. I gave up :p

    Would need your actual site URL in order to look at anything.

    Yep! Shawn is right. No one in here provides their url of their coop site. So even the simplest problem becomes hard enough to guess. If you follow the correct steps for help you need to provide with :

    Site Type: Blog, forum or whatever
    Site url:
    Also specify about server sided languages available like php etc.

    Just a quick check... you said you uploaded a new set of coop pages... did you also change your coop code in the footer to call those new pages, or are you still calling the old ones?

    I did change the code in the footer everytime I canged the co-op code to call the new files.

    It's just so wierd that after working fine for 5 months it suddenly just stops validating without any code changes at all.
    It is still recording stuff in the text file with no probs too.

    I also have just noticed also that the stats are still showing impressions although I don't know how often they update.

    If you are using vb3.5, you shouldn't have to change any code. I would, however, uninstall and reinstall the product, just to be on the safe side if you are still having problems.
