I've changed my setup. I copied all the files from public_html to my public_html.
I had to create a new directory at the highest level wich I called GL for the other files including config.php. (there is already a etc directory)
In lib.common.php I have entered:* Configuration Include: You should ONLY have to modify this line.
* Leave the rest of this file intact!
*/
require_once( '/home/efischer/GL/config.php' );
In config.php I have made the following setup:
$_CONF['path'] = '/home/efischer/GL/'; // C:/inetpub/wwwroot/geeklog/
// You only need to change this if you moved or renamed the public_html
// directory. In that case, you should specify the complete path to the
// directory like this: $_CONF['path_html'] = '/path/to/your/public_html/';
$_CONF['path_html'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'public_html/';
After install I can see the database is filled with tables; the next screen gives me this:
Template Error: set_root: /home/efischer/GL/public_html/layout/XSilver/ is not a directory.
Halted.
It seems to me that somewhere public_html is expected to be in GL, which it isn't.
So I've tried to change
$_CONF['path_html'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'public_html/';
into
$_CONF['path_html'] = /home/efischer/public_html/';
but then the database won't even be filled.
Well, I hate to admit I don't get it, I've been through the manual pages and lots of the help articles here, but, ehh, I don't get it.
thanks,
Eric

Well that (your latest changes) looks fine as far as I can tell from here. So what do you mean when you say "the database won't even be filled"?
Remember, when you enter the "path to Geeklog" in the install script that you have to enter the path to where your config.php resides (not to your public_html folder).
If you do so, what happens? Do you get an error message?
bye, Dirk

Well, I'm uploading again. Got too mad about it and deleted the
whole thing. (Kept a copy locally). I've emptied the database again.
I will report about what exactly happens when the whole thing is
uploaded again.
thanks again, seems to me you guys must be too busy helping
everybody out installing ;-)

Hello, this is the error I get.
Parse error: parse error in /home/efischer/GL/config.php on line 72
Fatal error: Failed opening required 'databases/.class.php'
(include_path='') in /home/efischer/GL/system/lib-database.php on
line 109
For completeness sake the config.php server setup: I have the
public_html files copied into public_html on the server. The other
files are copied to a directory "GL" I've created at the highest level
on the server.
$_CONF['path'] = '/home/efischer/GL/'; //
C:/inetpub/wwwroot/geeklog/
// You only need to change this if you moved or renamed the
public_html
// directory. In that case, you should specify the complete path to
the
// directory like this: $_CONF['path_html'] =
'/path/to/your/public_html/';
$_CONF['path_html'] = /home/efischer/public_html/';
So, if you've stated this setup looked probably allright, what can be
happening?
thanks, Eric

Hint: Read the error messages carefully. Start with the first one, try to figure out what it says:
Parse error: parse error in /home/efischer/GL/config.php on line 72
There's something wrong in line 72 of your config.php (line numbers are sometimes off by a line, so make sure you check lines 71 and 73 as well).
In this case, line 72 is
$_CONF['path_html'] = /home/efischer/public_html/';
There's the single quote missing before the /home - it should read
$_CONF['path_html'] = '/home/efischer/public_html/';
bye, Dirk

Congratulations! It's too bad you experienced a lot of problems but at least it turned out to be a very minor one in the end.
