Sounds like perhaps the hosting did not install oxide correctly.
In the server oxide folder do you see folders for these:
----config
----data
----lang
----logs
----plugins

Looks like you are missing the logs folder path.

yes those folders are there. here is the log from the oxide

If it were mine, id do a fresh install of the server.

i did a fresh wipe. i was trying to make this work yesterday with no luck so i had the host wipe everything. now today im back with the same problem

Merged post

is there something u see that i can msg to the host an tell them thats wrong 

The error is from the compiler missing because your server couldn’t connect to the site it uses to download it.

Thanks for the help. got the host to fix the missing compiler.
