success.php Not Found
Nick Smarto
Anonymous
I have followed all instructions and procedures to install the script, but everytime I finish Step 2, I come to the url that reads "http://www.nicksmarto.com/geeklogpublic_html/admin/install/success.php" and the page gives the standard "This Page Cannot be Found". I have adjusted the paths in lib-common.php and I'm sure the config file is good.
Any advice?

The code still isn't working. Here, you can look at my config file here:

Well, viewing your config.php won't work that way ...
However, from poking around, I'd say the way you set up the site you should have
$_CONF['site_url'] = 'http://www.nicksmarto.com/geeklog/public_html';
And as soon as you fix that parse error in your lib-common.php, your site will probably work just fine.

Hi all!
I have same problem...
in my config.php i have this:
$_DB_host = 'localhost'; // host name or IP address of your DB server
$_DB_name = 'site'; // name of your database,
// must exist before running the installer!
$_DB_user = 'root'; // MySQL user name
$_DB_pass = ''; // MySQL password
// The table prefix is prepended to each table used by Geeklog to avoid name
// collisions with other tables that may already exist in your database.
$_DB_table_prefix = 'gl_'; // e.g. 'gl_'
// +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
// | (2) Paths |
// +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
// Note for Windows users: It's safe to use the forward slash '/' instead of
// the backslash '' in paths. Make sure each path starts with a drive letter!
// This should point to the directory where your config.php file resides.
$_CONF['path'] = 'D:/xampp/xampp/htdocs/site/'; // should end in a slash
// 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 (i.e. without the $_CONF['path']) like this:
// $_CONF['path_html'] = '/path/to/your/public_html/';
$_CONF['path_html'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'D:/xampp/xampp/htdocs/site/public_html/';
// +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
// | (3) Site Settings |
// +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
// Make sure this is the correct URL to your site, i.e. to where Geeklog's
// index.php file resides (no trailing slash).
$_CONF['site_url'] = 'localhost';
// 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'] . 'D:/xampp/xampp/htdocs/site/public_html/admin';
When the install finish in browser is :
localhostd:/xampp/xampp/htdocs/site/public_html/admin/install/success.php
And "The page cannot be displayed"
When i not use D:/xampp/xampp/htdocs i can't install everytime i recive error..if someone can help me wjat tp use in path...
Sorry about my bad english!
10x in advance!

$_CONF['path_html'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'D:/xampp/xampp/htdocs/site/public_html/';
There's your problem. As the comment says, you should either specify your path relatively to $_CONF['path'] or absolutely - like you did - but then it should not have the $_CONF['path'] in front of it. In other words:
$_CONF['path_html'] = 'D:/xampp/xampp/htdocs/site/public_html/';

More like 'http://www.theseashore.us/geeklog/public_html'. At least I get an SQL error there that looks suspiciously like the ones Geeklog generates
You may also want to re-read the bit about public_html in the installation instructions.

ok, now I am getting a template error, what do I have to change? I think I also moved my public folder to the right place now.
Template Error: set_root: /home/u3/squirrellydw/html/_private/public_html/layout/professional is not a directory.
Halted.
