    I have a website which is made with php code. I have added the .txt file and .php file to the main directory of the website. I am getting the following error and is being displayed at the top of the home page of the website:

    You must set the ad network .txt file to be writable (or file is not within path).

    I am a novice to the coop network. I would appreciate any help with this error.

    Thanks,
    Venkata

    Also make sure the number is the same.

    If your code is calling for _224

    Make sure your text file is _224

    I have done the CHMOD to 777, I am getting this error again. Is there anything else that I need to do?

    Maybe try putting the full file name within the ad_network.php file : /home/user/public_html/somedirectory/filename.

    I have put ad_network.php in public_html directory. It still doesn't work and gives me a message.

    Do I need to first have text ad or banner ad created at ad network website for this to work? Are they related? I have put up an ad at ad network website.

    Please clarify.
