CiviCRM 2.1 in Joomla 1.5.7 on PLESK-based host
October 05, 2008, 02:40:27 pm
I've been spending every day since 2.1 released trying to get it to install without luck. HELP!

Mostly it seems to install, but picking any of the CiviCRM menus gives a blank screen. Sometimes when I install it gives a 'Safari could not open the page "http://mdesp.org/administrator/index.php” because the server is not responding.' (my laptop is a MacBook running Leopard) I've installed and uninstalled and reinstalled Joomla and purchased a new server account.

I HAVE increased the memory_limit = 64M, register_globals=off and max_execution_time=600. I have also created the vhost.conf file in my domain directory: /var/www/vhosts/MarkdeSollaPrice.org/conf/vhost.conf and added the flag php_admin_value open_basedir none.

My hosting company is RackForce with a Linux Virtual Private Servers with PLESK control panel. I've never had any trouble with any other package. MySQL 5.0.58, PHP 5.2.6, Apache 2.2.3, PHP Interface: apache2handler, Joomla! 1.5.7

Could this be a FTP or permission/owner problem? I see the the owner = "mdesp" and the group= "psacln" of all the files/folders. I tried installing joomlaXplorer and uploading civicrm-2.1.0-joomla.zip to the server AND THEN expanding it (which gives me apache/apache 775) but that didn't solve it either.

I don't know what to try next. Any suggestions?

I'd be open to a good Samaritan who wanted to play on my server, just e-mail me and I'll set you up. mark at markandvinny dot com

hey mark:

can you please send me (lobo at yahoo dot com. deepak.srivastava at webaccess dot co dot in) ssh name and password. we'd also need to know where the apache error / access logs are and preferably access to mysql query logs (or how to turn it on / off). if you dont know this info, please ask rackspace before contacting us :) Ideally we'd like to be in touch with you on IRC/IM while we are on the server. We can discuss via email once you get the above info.

we'll take a look at it and help figure it out. If it a user error, we would like you to spend the same amount of time we spent on the issue and help contribute to the forums/documentation
