Transferring a site and getting errors

uli · 2013-07-18 16:27:50

The htaccess is the one from the installation, unchanged, nothing unusual.

What errors, please? On the public side, I assume?

tayfighter · 2013-07-18 16:41:05

Yeah sorry all links to sub pages are not working.

uli · 2013-07-18 17:03:25

You seem to have it working, right? (I clicked around on kro.co.uk and found no errors.)

Hi

That’s probably the old hosting

The new hosting is here

176.32.230.27/kro.co.uk/

Hi

Can anyone help with this.
Not sure what i’ve missed.

None of the sub pages work and I cant seem to edit these

$path_to_site: /home/sites/kro.co.uk/public_html
Textpattern path: /home/sites/kro.co.uk/public_html/textpattern

Thanks

Hi

to edit those value you must go to php_myadmin and look to txp_prefs and there search $path_to_site and change it s value to whatever you want (make a backup of db before doing anything).

Hi

I’ve edited siteurl but cant seem to find any reference to $path_to_site

I’m guessing this is what is causing the sub pages not to work?

Can you find path_to_site? Edit: in table txp_prefs

Hi

There is a entry called siteurl which i have changed but i cant seem to find any reference of $path_to_site

In the diagnostics it is still saying the value of this is the old url.

Cant work out what i’ve missed?

uli · 2013-07-29 13:32:34

OK, maybe we’ve not been clear enough:

The preference is named path_to_site, not $path_to_site. In your case it needs editing via php_myadmin, table txp_prefs (not via the Textpattern admin).

Hi

Thanks found it.

However when i change it it keeps resetting itself to the old settings.

/home/sites/kro.co.uk

Any ideas?

Do you think this is what is causing the sub pages to not be working.

So it seems the prefs setting is constantly taken from some other place. Didn’t know that. Will be the txpath entry in config.php.

tayfighter · 2013-08-01 09:18:42

Hi

Thanks but i’d changed the config file too

This is what i changed it to >

$txpcfg[‘txpath’] = ’176.32.230.27/kro.co.uk/public_html/textpattern’;

Have copied and followed all the instructions for transferring and have edited all the relevant bits.

Hi

First check again your diagnostic page on textpattern admin to see if all is ok! i suspect that there is an htaccess problem there, try to switch to messy url on textpattern admin preference tab to see if links will work!

I confirm that is an htaccess problem there this link (a messy url schme to your section) works: http://176.32.230.27/kro.co.uk/index.php?s=kro-social-news-events-promotions

Thanks Dragondz

Tried changing it to messy, but still getting errors.

Havent changed the .htaccess file >>

#DirectoryIndex index.php index.html

#Options +FollowSymLinks
#Options -Indexes

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On #RewriteBase /relative/web/path/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d RewriteRule ^(.+) – [PT,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/favicon.ico RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php

RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} !^$ RewriteRule .* – [E=REMOTE_USER:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
</IfModule>

#php_value register_globals 0

And from the textpattern diagnostics, im getting the following

Web Domain DNS lookup fails: 176.32.230.27
File directory path is not writable: 176.32.230.27/kro.co.uk/public_html/files
Temporary directory path is not writable: 176.32.230.27/kro.co.uk/public_html/textpattern/tmp
Some Textpattern files have been modified:
/home/sites/kro.co.uk/public_html/index.php,
/home/sites/kro.co.uk/public_html/textpattern/include/txp_auth.php,
/home/sites/kro.co.uk/public_html/textpattern/index.php,
/home/sites/kro.co.uk/public_html/textpattern/lib/class.thumb.php,
/home/sites/kro.co.uk/public_html/textpattern/lib/txplib_db.php,
/home/sites/kro.co.uk/public_html/rpc/index.php ?
Clean URL test failed.

I assume the Web Domain DNS lookup fails because the domain isnt set up yet, but the other settings are still referring to the old settings.

Any ideas.

thanks for the help.
