Seems like your host provider does not have the needed PHP classes
installed. Check the version they offer compared to the one needed by the
script. check the paths in your code and make sure they arent absolute
paths that no longer apply when they are uploaded to the server. try and
use relative paths.

error shown when I uploaded the login script to the live server. It worked
beautifully on local server.
the errors are:
Warning: require(classes/mysqli.class.php) [function.require]: failed to
open stream: No such file or directory in /path/index.php on line 18

Warning: require(classes/mysqli.class.php) [function.require]: failed to
open stream: No such file or directory in /path/index.php on line 18

Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required

(include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /path/index.php on
line 18

Hey, there is no "mysqli.php" is the original script, so i think you have changed some things ;)
By the way, class names are (afaik) always in Uppercase. The script contains a Database.php, so there is no need to change this name... But i you send me your code, i maybe can help you

@panique i didn't change anything. I tried uploading your original code to the live server and it still shows error. but it runs in my local server.

@bhadresharya Hey... sorry, but there is no mysqli.php in the script. So you have changed something. Please don't get me wrong, but i get soooo many mails & "bug reports" by people who change filenames, move files, rename folder or simply use PHP 4 and then say "your script does not work". Please send me your code if you like and i ll have a look, okay ? ;)

@bhadresharya MySQLi is part of PHP. The error you are getting is caused because your server's php was not compiled with MySQLi. It has nothing to do with the script. What does your /path/index.php look like? Specially on and around line 18.

Ah, i think i know what has happened: You are using an extremely old and outdated version of PHP. The readme and the github page says you need PHP 5.3 for the script, and PHP 5.2 is outdated since 2009 (!). PHP 5.2 didn't had the mysqli extension.

Create a page with this code:

  <?php phpinfo(); ?>    

Then load the page with your browser and search for 'mysqli' you shoud find a section with specification about mysqli. This prove that mysqli module is loaded.

In the same page, you will also find your php version. As panique said 5.3 is the minimum.

@border0464111 @panique @Aresinho Thank you guys. I got it. The problem caused because I'm new to this programming stuff. :p I'm sorry.
