Cant access Downloads module

I recently upgraded PHP-nuke 7.3 to 7.6. Then I installed the 2.9 patch. Then I installed NukeStyle Downloads module and upgraded it to 7.6 compatible.
I can access everything on the site and the admin section except for the Downloads module. I get the "you can't access this file directly" error. I checked the script in the downloads module index.php file and it appears correct. I may be missing something. Here is the script:

Quote:

if (!stristr($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'], "modules.php")) {
die ("You can't access this file directly...");
}

if (isset($show)) {
$show = intval($show);
}

require_once("mainfile.php");
$module_name = basename(dirname(__FILE__));
get_lang($module_name);
$pagetitle = "- $module_name";
require_once("modules/$module_name/ns_downloads_file.php");
$index = 1;

I changed the "SCRIPT_NAME" to "PHP_SELF". That seemed to be the fix for other people who got that error for other modules. But that did not work in this case.. Does anyone have any ideas what I am missing here?

Do I need to add "downloads" everywhere it says "$module_name"

Anyhelp will be appreciated...Thanks

I have 7.6 and the snippet of code from my index.php in my downloads section is

Code:

if ( !defined('MODULE_FILE') )
{
die("You can't access this file directly...");
}
if (isset($show)) {
$show = intval($show);
}

Give that a try maybe?

As for your question about changing all the "$module_name" to downloads you dont need to Nuke will grab the global from the tables and fill it in for you

Dont know if this helps

Thanks for the reply iceblox.

I tried that script and it still came back with "you can't acces this file directly"
