Defining the civicrm root directory
October 02, 2012, 08:59:45 am
Hi All,


The developers I used to set-up civi on drupal for me placed the files in sites/all/modules/contrib/ not sites/all/modules/ so a load of stuff doesn't work. For example I can't track email opens because the email is calling sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/open.php?q=17783 not sites/all/modules/contrib/civicrm/extern/open.php?q=17783.

Where do I define the civi root directory? I thought it was setting_location.php but changing that hasn't solved the problem.


Thanks in advance!

You should have a file called civicrm.settings.php in the same directory as your Drupal settings.php file (generally in sites/default if you're NOT running multiple drupal sites on the same codebase). $civicrm_root is defined in that file.

Hi Dave,


Thanks for getting back to me so quick.

civicrm.settings.php is actually set-up right (i.e. pointing to the right directory) but both the open tracker and link tracker point to the wrong directory.

Any idea what's wrong?


Ben

Looks like open tracking link is built using CiviCRM Resource URL (Administer > System Settings > Resource URLs) - I found this in CRM/Mailing/BAO/Mailing.php:

Code: [Select]
      array_push($html, "\n" . '<img src="' . $config->userFrameworkResourceURL .
        "extern/open.php?q=$event_queue_id\" width='1' height='1' alt='' border='0'>"
      );
