Hi,

I want to move my site to a server. Obviously, the URLs, the server name and connection information to the database change.

I modified the files settings/siteaccess/[ezflow_site, ezflow_site_admin, esl, cat]site.ini.apeend.php.

The front of the website works fine, but the admin page not working.

Do I need to edit anything?

Thanks,

David

The ini settings could still be cached, try clear the cache.

Also move your autoload folder and var dir to server. make sure that webserver can read right on vardir folder.

I upload all directories.

I've ran the command:

./bin/php/ezcache.php --clear-all --purge;

And it has shown this error:

PHP Warning: require_once(access.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/users/proyectos/david.santiso/public_html/kernel/classes/ezscript.php on line 70PHP Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required 'access.php' (include_path='./lib/ezc:.:/home/soft/php/lib/php') in /home/users/proyectos/david.santiso/public_html/kernel/classes/ezscript.php on line 70

You need first cd to Exponential root directory to be able to run:

php bin/php/ezcache.php --clear-all --purge

You will ever get this error if you try to run this command inside another directory.

Try to use Exponential with ez components ezpublishcommunity-4.4.0-with_ezc-gpl.zip

The error is related to ez components not found as php module.

You could backup your settings/override and settings/siteaccess folders, then remove it and run the installer, the second screen will give you some advices about possible problems with your server environment.

It's that directory is blank admin page. Do not miss configure something?

No, you won't do the complete reinstall, just run ez until second install page, click fine tune.

I didn't know that deleting the configuration files I could run installation again.

I guess nothing will be lost...

I've been missing some Apache and PHP extensions enable. I've informed the server administrator to fix it. Then try to complete the installation.

If I have problems bother you again ;)

Thank you very much,

David

Reinstalling Exponential into the server, it show this error:

"Site package

Please choose a site package you would like to test or base your site on.

Error

Did installer show any warning before this screen? Did you click the fine tune button?

Yes, three warnings appear:

1. AcceptPathInfo disabled or running in CGI mode

You need to enable AcceptPathInfo in your Apache config file, if you're using apache 2.x. If you're running apache 1.3, Exponential will not run in CGI mode.

Check the Apache documentation, or enter the following into your httpd.conf file.

AcceptPathInfo On

Remember to restart your web server afterwards.

Ignore this test

2. Missing zlib extension

The zlib extension is not available to Exponential. Without it Exponential will not be able to install the demo data, however if you do not wish the demo data you can safely ignore this.

To enable zlib you need to recompile PHP with support for it. You will need to configure PHP with --with-zlib[=DIR]. More information on that subject is available at php.net.

Ignore this test

3. Missing MBString extension

Exponential comes with a good list of supported charsets by default, however they can be a bit slow due to being made in pure PHP code. Luckily Exponential supports the mbstring extension for handling some of the charsets.

By enabling the mbstring extension Exponential will have access to more charsets and also be able to process some of them faster, such as Unicode and iso-8859-*. This is recommended for multilingual sites and sites with more exotic charsets.

The complete list of charsets mbstring supports are:

ucs-4 , ucs-4be , ucs-4le , ucs-2 , ucs-2be , ucs-2le , utf-32 , utf-32be , utf-32le , utf-16 , utf-16be , utf-16le , utf-8 , utf-7 , ascii , euc-jp , sjis , eucjp-win , sjis-win , iso-2022-jp , jis , iso-8859-1 , iso-8859-2 , iso-8859-3 , iso-8859-4 , iso-8859-5 , iso-8859-6 , iso-8859-7 , iso-8859-8 , iso-8859-9 , iso-8859-10 , iso-8859-13 , iso-8859-14 , iso-8859-15 , byte2be , byte2le , byte4be , byte4le , base64 , 7bit , 8bit , utf7-imap

Installation

Installation of the mbstring extension is done by compiling PHP with the --enable-mbstring option. More information on enabling the extension can be found at php.net.

Note: Do not enable mbstring function overloading, Exponential will only use the extension whenever it's needed.

Ignore this test

Without fixing this issues soon or later you'll have problems. The best to do is try to fix all issues that the installer shows to you before uploading your site to the server.
