Hello! I have just downloaded and installed Dolibarr and I thought it would be nice to have a birthday calendar attached. I bought a module called Birthday, installed it but when I run it I get this error:

**Warning** : require(…/main.inc.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in **D:\Dolibarr\dolibarr\www\dolibarr\htdocs\custom\birthday\liste.php** on line **24**

**Fatal error** : require(): Failed opening required ‘…/main.inc.php’ (include\_path=’.;C:\php\pear’) in **D:\Dolibarr\dolibarr\www\dolibarr\htdocs\custom\birthday\liste.php** on line **24**

Am I doing something wrong?

Hello,

There is no support for external module on this forum.

If you are talking about [Birthday](https://www.dolistore.com/fr/modules/983-Birthday.html) it seems to be compatible only V7 max.  
And, as a very old external module, it should be but directly on`/htdocs/`not on `/htdocs/custom`
