Hi ! Here is a big problem... When I want to install GL on my website i have an error : //////////////////////////////////////////////////// Fatal error: Failed opening required '/path/to/geeklog/system/databases/mysql.class.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/csw/www/news/system/lib-database.php on line 109 What is the matter ? which file is not configured please ? thanks by advance... CSW

You obviously did not set $_CONF['path'] in config.php. Please read the installation instructions again carefully, so you're not missing any steps. bye, Dirk

thank you ! it is my fault... Why can't i see the sucess.php page ? there is nothing... how can i launch the gl site ? thanks

Check your setting for $_CONF['site_url']. It should point to the URL where Geeklog's index.php resides (but the URL should not include "index.php" and it should not end in a slash). bye, Dirk

nothing more...It still odes not work... When I type my URL like $_CONF['site_url'], I only see all files in my folder... when I finished the installation, there is still nothing on the screen...I don't understand why... I have'nt got index.php in my GL folder... help me !

There is (or should be) an index.php in /path/to/geeklog/public_html - and URL equivalent of that path is what you should have in $_CONF['site_url']. bye, Dirk

on my website, i have http://www.xxxxxx.com/gl/public_html in this folder, I have an index.php, but I cannot open it...It drives me to an error 404... What is the matter ?

Why don't you post the section of your config.php where you changed the paths/URLs? Sounds like something in there is still messed up.

Here is the part of config.php I changed / +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ // | SERVER SETTINGS | // | | // | All paths must have a trailing slash ('/'). If you're on Windows, they | // | must also start with a drive letter (e.g. 'C:/'). | // | The 'path' value signifies where the config.php (this file) resides | // +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ $_CONF['path'] = '/home/sebmayer/www/travaux/'; // 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 (i.e. without the $_CONF['path']): // $_CONF['path_html'] = 'http://www.sebmayer.com/travaux/public_html/'; $_CONF['path_html'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'public_html/'; // you shouldn't need to edit the following $_CONF['path_system'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'system/'; $_CONF['path_log'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'logs/'; $_CONF['path_language'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'language/'; $_CONF['rdf_file'] = $_CONF['path_html'] . 'backend/geeklog.rdf'; $_CONF['backup_path'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'backups/'; // +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ // | SITE SETTINGS | // | | // | These settings help define your Geeklog site. | // +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ // make sure this is the correct URL to your site (no trailing slash) $_CONF['site_url'] = 'http://www.sebmayer.com/travaux'; $_CONF['site_name'] = 'Sebmayer'; $_CONF['site_slogan'] = 'Another Nifty Geeklog Site'; $_CONF['site_mail'] = 'postmaster@sebmayer.com'; $_CONF['theme'] = 'XSilver'; // default theme // Some hosting services have a preconfigured admin directory. In that case, // you need to rename Geeklog's admin directory to something like "myadmin" // and change the following URL as well. Leave as is until you experience any // problems accessing Geeklog's admin menu. $_CONF['site_admin_url'] = $_CONF['site_url'] . '/public_html/admin'; // you shouldn't need to edit the following $_CONF['layout_url'] = $_CONF['site_url'] . '/layout/' . $_CONF['theme']; $_CONF['path_themes'] = $_CONF['path_html'] . 'layout/'; $_CONF['path_layout'] = $_CONF['path_themes'] . $_CONF['theme'] .'/'; I didn't rename anything... I want to install it on www.sebmayer.com/travaux please help me ! thank you

If ALL of your files are located under www.sebmayer.com/travaux then this URL is incorrect: $_CONF['site_url'] = 'http://www.sebmayer.com/travaux'; It should be this: $_CONF['site_url'] = 'http://www.sebmayer.com/travaux/public_html'; Once you correct $_CONF['site_url'], then this URL will be off: $_CONF['site_admin_url'] = $_CONF['site_url'] . '/public_html/admin'; and should be changed to this: $_CONF['site_admin_url'] = $_CONF['site_url'] . '/admin'; If you want to bring up your site by typing: 'http://www.sebmayer.com/travaux' instead of 'http://www.sebmayer.com/travaux/public_html', then place the files inside Geeklog's public_html directory right into your travaux directory. Then take the remaining files (config.php, /system, /language, etc) and place them in a non-public area on your server. I'm guessing '/home/sebmayer/www/' is the path for 'http://www.sebmayer.com/' . If I'm wrong, then please let me know. If I'm right, then your non-public files would go under '/home/sebmayer/' and the paths would like this instead: $_CONF['path'] = '/home/sebmayer/'; $_CONF['path_html'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'public_html/'; $_CONF['path_system'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'system/'; $_CONF['path_log'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'logs/'; $_CONF['path_language'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'language/'; $_CONF['rdf_file'] = $_CONF['path_html'] . 'backend/geeklog.rdf'; $_CONF['backup_path'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'backups/'; $_CONF['site_url'] = 'http://www.sebmayer.com/travaux'; $_CONF['site_admin_url'] = $_CONF['site_url'] . '/admin'; $_CONF['layout_url'] = $_CONF['site_url'] . '/layout/' . $_CONF['theme']; $_CONF['path_themes'] = $_CONF['path_html'] . 'layout/'; $_CONF['path_layout'] = $_CONF['path_themes'] . $_CONF['theme'] .'/';

thank you very much ! I understand now ! I will try, thank you !
