404 after installing to a subdirectory

lokimann · 2006-01-09 06:43:21

This forum has been so helpful before, thought you may be able to explain this one.

I have a fresh install of TextPattern on my site.

The site address is : http://www.jgpayne.com though the textpattern install is in a subdirectory called /think. When browsing there (http://www.jgpayne.com/think/index.php) I am getting a 404 message.

Like this:

My Site: 404 Not Found

404 – The requested page was not found.

Is there a setting I’ve missed in TXP? A permissions thing? Something to do with the webserver?

Please help, I’m kinda stumped.

Thank you,
Jeremy

What is your site_url set to in Preferences? It has to include the domain and the subdirectory (/think) as suggested by setup. If that doesn’t help, please post your diagnostics.

That did it! Thankyou!

You folks are awesome!

I am having a similiar issue. I do have the sub dir included in the path. I can get to the textpattern admin without any problem but get a 404 when trying to actually access the home page.

The requested URL /nfs/cust/6/17/87/378716/web/build/index.php was not found on this server.

index.php is in the build directory. Any help would sure be appreciated.

Forgot to mention I have tried messy urls and changing the .htacess to
RewriteBase /build/

$path_to_site: /nfs/cust/6/17/87/378716/web/build

~~This should be your domain + (web)subdir as suggestd by setup.~~

jdspeer · 2006-02-10 22:59:23

That is what the setup suggested the path to be. I just redid the setup and replaced the full path with http://jdspeer.net/web/build and I still get
The requested URL /nfs/cust/6/17/87/378716/web/build/index.php was not found on this server.
is there someplace to change this after the setup?
this is from my config.php
$txpcfg[‘host’] = ‘mysql.jdspeer.net’;
$txpcfg[‘table_prefix’] = ‘’;
$txpcfg[‘txpath’] = ‘jdspeer.net/web/build/textpattern’;

jdspeer · 2006-02-10 23:13:16

in the admin section the site url is set to jdspeer.net/build

Sencer · 2006-02-11 09:11:23

Sorry about that, I got mixed up. Please revert it to the way it was before.
txpath should of course be the full filesystem url. path_to_site is autogenerated by tepattern, so it’s not even something you can control. And site_url sems to be set corretly.

Let’s try one more time.

jdspeer · 2006-02-11 16:32:21

I have dumped the data base and reinstalled everything and still get the same 404
The requested URL /nfs/cust/6/17/87/378716/web/build/index.php was not found on this server.

I have also tried with Messy URLs
Thank you so much for your help, I am using Textpattern on several sites (IIS) and other than having to use messy URLs have had nothing but success. This is my first installation on apache linux.

Just for grins, I deleted the .htaccess and now it works, so then I replaced the .httacess with the line

RewriteBase /build/

and everything seems to be working.
Thank you for all your help
