New Vanilla installation not working correctly.
Hi All,
I've created a new Vanilla setup for a website I'm working on. and I'm having some issues with it.
My issues are as follows:
Occasionally the index.php file fails to load... though if I hit refresh it's in instantly.
When I click on discussions, to goes back to the file folder that index.php is in rather than to index.php itself.
When I click on a category, it fails to open the category with an error that goes back the the Vanillla folder on the server ie: it opens to the link as http://www.xxx.com/vanilla/?CategoryID=2 instead of http://www.xxx.com/vanilla/index.php/?CategoryID=2
xxx being the name of my domain (well not really :D )
Here's the copy of most of my settings.php file in the Conf directory and my .htaccess file in the root directory of the server.
$Configuration['SETUP_TEST'] = '1';
$Configuration['APPLICATION_PATH'] = 'E:/inetpub/wwwroot/vanilla/';
$Configuration['DATABASE_PATH'] = 'E:/inetpub/wwwroot/vanilla/conf/database.php';
$Configuration['LIBRARY_PATH'] = 'E:/inetpub/wwwroot/vanilla/library/';
$Configuration['EXTENSIONS_PATH'] = 'E:/inetpub/wwwroot/vanilla/extensions/';
$Configuration['LANGUAGES_PATH'] = 'E:/inetpub/wwwroot/vanilla/languages/';
$Configuration['THEME_PATH'] = 'E:/inetpub/wwwroot/vanilla/themes/vanilla/';
$Configuration['DEFAULT_STYLE'] = '/vanilla/themes/vanilla/styles/default/';
$Configuration['WEB_ROOT'] = '/vanilla/';
$Configuration['BASE_URL'] = 'http://www.xxx.com/vanilla/';
$Configuration['HTTP_METHOD'] = 'http';
$Configuration['FORWARD_VALIDATED_USER_URL'] = 'http://www.xxx.com/vanilla/index.php';
$Configuration['SUPPORT_EMAIL'] = xxx';
$Configuration['SUPPORT_NAME'] = 'pher';
$Configuration['APPLICATION_TITLE'] = 'xxx';
$Configuration['BANNER_TITLE'] = 'xxx';
$Configuration['COOKIE_DOMAIN'] = '';
$Configuration['COOKIE_PATH'] = '/vanilla/';
$Configuration['SETUP_COMPLETE'] = '1';
$Configuration['DATABASE_PASSWORD'] = '';
$Configuration['DATABASE_VERSION'] = '2';
$Configuration['LOG_ALL_IPS'] = '1';
$Configuration['ALLOW_NAME_CHANGE'] = '0';
$Configuration['DISCUSSION_TIME_THRESHOLD'] = '30';
$Configuration['LAST_UPDATE'] = '1247202448';
$Configuration['DEFAULT_PAGE_USE_RETURN'] = '';
$Configuration['USE_CATEGORIES'] = '1';
$Configuration['DEFAULT_PAGE'] = 'index.php';
the .htaccess file looks like the following:
DirectoryIndex index.php
Redirect 301 /index.htm http://www.xxx.com/vanilla/index.php - not sure if this is worthwhile having.
It's only 3 lines with a blank line as the first line.
It's a copy of the .htaccess file from the appg directory with the following area removed
<Limit GET POST PUT>
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from All
</Limit>
thanks for your help in advance.
Pher.
