Comments won't work on submit!
Hi
First of all I’m new at this whole TXP thing and I’m no server guy. I like TXP very much but I’m frankly quite frustrated at this point and I’m about to give up on it all if nothing results from this post. I have looked through this forum but havn’t found any solution yet.
I have made a clean install of TXP 4.01, and I’m using the standard article (id=1). I have tried using both messy and clean urls with the same result. As far as I can see the server supports mod_rewrite, but that shouldn’t be an issue as the same thing occurs in messy mode.
In this example I’m going to use messy-mode, as I want to rule out the possibility of mod_rewrite not being active. I havn’t changed anything in .htaccess
This is what I do to repeat the problem.
- Browsing to the section the url looks like: /?s=article
- Clicking “Comment” the URL changes to: /index.php?id=1#comment
- I now write my comment and click the “Preview” button and the URL changes to: /index.php?id=1#cpreview
- All looks good and I now click the “Submit” button.
This is where it goes off track. The URL is still the same: /index.php?id=1#cpreview, but now I get this error:
Found
The document has moved here.
Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
When I click the “here” link it loads /index.php?id=1 and the error-page remains the same. I then click “here” again and it now loads the article page with my new comment at the bottom. The URL is still /index.php?id=1
Any help is much appreciated as I am stuck and unable to figure out what to do now.
Cheers,
Martin

Re: Comments won't work on submit!
It is likely because you have the .htaccess uploaded. Remove it, and switch back to messy if you haven’t. Any change?

I have tried renaming the .htaccess file and I am running in ?=messy mode. It is still the same problem with the 500 error.
Might it be the way the server is set up?

Re: Comments won't work on submit!
No, this is actually something that can happen in rare circumstances (server-environment) with the regular textpattern-code. We will fix this for the next release. In the meantime, you can edit publish.php and near line 43 delete the following two lines (or alternatively comment them out adding a doubleslash in front of them //like this):
<code>
header(“Status: 200 OK”);
header(“HTTP/1.1 200 OK”);
</code>
In most cases it should not have any adverse effect.

Then you don’t have the same problem.
