Hrm I think your header problem might be above what I can troubleshoot. Maybe Garvin or one of the mods might have some input. Don't worry though, if there is a solution, it will be found.

I'm sorry you keep running into these problems. :(

it's ok Azel, thank you so much for all your help over the past few days! Your step by step instructions have been WONDERFUL. It's something that the FAQ section of the site I believe is lacking. When I had my husband read the FAQ (who is quite competent on the computer, moreso than I) his first comment, was, wow, I thought this site claims to be for all levels of experience, they write their FAQ assuming you know what you are doing or what they are talking about, this is little help to a beginner who doesn't know how to do these things or what they mean.

Thank you again for all your help! I will await Garvin or someone else's help for the header problem and hopefully they can also help me with my web address problem :)

Well it looks like your header problem may be the same that is found in this thread: http://www.s9y.org/forums/viewtopic.php ... ht=headers

Garvin says the provider's PHP session path is not valid. :/


Also, the trailing slash might be missing from your database. Are you able to access your database through phpMyAdmin to see if your paths (found in serendipity_config) are set like this:

serendipityPath path/to/blog/
serendipityHTTPPath /blog/
baseURL http://yoursite.com/blog/

Note the trailing slashes.

Hey there again. I followed that a thread to the same problem that another person had and Gavin had suggested to get in touch with my hosting provider cause they needed to set up the php session path correctly, but the problem is the path is set correctly but my host said there is something wrong with the scripting on serendipity side. I dont know what to do about this.

this is the errors i get on it.

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: open(/mnt/135/sdc/8/0/astuceslive/sessions/sess_6e1e95ca3211740666a5efdcef2b35eb, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in /mnt/135/sdc/8/0/astuceslive/serendipity/serendipity_config.inc.php on line 6

Hi!

Please do get back to your provider; the session setup of your provider DEFINITELY is broken. The session.save_path in the provider's php.ini points to a directory that does NOT exist. Only he can fix it.

Trust me on this - Serendipity does not influence the session-save path anywehre! :-)

Best regards,
Garvin

thank you Garvin, I called my server and they took care of the problem.

However I still can't figure out how to have my website viewed with the address http://www.jenstewartphotography.com/blog right now the only way you can reach is is http://www.jenstewartphotography.com/blog/index.php

do I need to change something in the configuration- paths section in order for it to have the correct address?

I will post this also in a more appropriate thread.

thank you!

Hi!

For the URL thing you need to edit your ".htaccess" file and make sure that you have the string "DirectoryIndex index.php" in it? And your Apache server needs to allow you to override that variable...

HTH,
Garvin
