Hi.

I have moved my site to a new webhost, but Serendipity did not like that - I got all kinds of errors, so I decided to delete all the files on the new host, do a clean install (Serendipity 1.5 beta1) and then restore all entries and comments from a database backup.

However, my page is still not working. If you look at http://www.mzh.dk/blog/, all you see is "Warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "404.tpl" in /home/www/mzh.dk/blog/bundled-libs/Smarty/libs/Smarty.class.php on line 1093"

I can access the admin module, but it looks a little amputated (it seems as if no css is being loaded, and there are no graphics), but the basic functionality is there.

So, I go to the configuration page and double check that all the paths are correct - and they are, except that the url for my blog says "http://mzh.dk/blog/", i.e. without "www". However, when I change it and press Check & Save, I get this:

"Warning: fopen(/www/mzh.dk/blog/serendipity_config_local.inc.php) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/www/mzh.dk/blog/include/functions_installer.inc.php on line 72"

I have checked, and the file is there - and I have even CHMOD'ed it to 777, but I still get the same error.

When I go to see my media library, I get a similar error:

"Cannot write to folder /www/mzh.dk/blog/templates_c. Check file rights.
Warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "admin/media_pane.tpl" in /home/www/mzh.dk/blog/bundled-libs/Smarty/libs/Smarty.class.php on line 1093"

Again, templates_c is CHMOD'ed to 777.

When I look in my FTP program (FileZilla), it says "1652 1652" in the "Owner/group" column - is this significant ...?

Please help - I'm going nuts!

Hello,

looks like you are missing the .htaccess in your serendipity directory.

Is this the auto-generated version, or die you copy it from your former installation?

I'm pretty sure it is the auto-generated one - but is there any way I can auto-generate a new one to make sure?

I could then try to delete the one I have and then auto-generate a new one.

Where does Smarty look for its templates?

Honestly - I have no idea! How can I check?

Which database backend are you using?

Please check:

Code: Select all

SELECT value FROM serendipity_config WHERE name = 'serendipityPath'

MySQL

Please check:

Code: Select all

SELECT value FROM serendipity_config WHERE name = 'serendipityPath'

/www/mzh.dk/blog/

OK, try this:

Code: Select all

UPDATE serendipity_config SET value = '/home/www/mzh.dk/blog/' WHERE name = 'serendipityPath' AND value = '/www/mzh.dk/blog/'

I think you are a genius - that seemed to work!!!

Now, at least, my administration page has css styles and graphics again, and my blog has content!

Still, check http://www.mzh.dk/blog again and you will see some errors and warnings from Smarty. I am pretty sure I can handle those myself, though, as I think I just need to add the "/home" to the server path in the Smarty templates too.

Will let you know the outcome.

You are indeed a genious - everything is working now (except, that is, for the fact that I can't make my new host parse files with an html ending as php, but that is an entirely different matter!).

Thank you so much for your help!
