Moved host now front end doesn't work
May 07, 2009, 04:49:05 am
I changed host and have been struggling with getting things to work. I finally got the backend to function now the front end is crashing. I am pretty confident that it is because I moved from a Unix host to a Windows Host and thus the DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR is causing a majority of the problem. If I go in and replace DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR with '/' in civicrm.settings.php I get farther but then I fail on:
 
Warning: require_once(CRM/Core/DAO.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No error in D:\www\AutismAllianceKC.org\Public\administrator\components\com_civicrm\civicrm\CRM\Core\Config.php on line 42

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'CRM/Core/DAO.php' (include_path='.;/www/AutismAllianceKC.org/Public/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm;D:\www\AutismAllianceKC.org\Public\administrator\components\com_civicrm\civicrm\packages;D:\www\AutismAllianceKC.org\Public\administrator\components\com_civicrm\civicrm\CRM\Core;/www/AutismAllianceKC.org/Public/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/packages;.;C:\php5\pear') in D:\www\AutismAllianceKC.org\Public\administrator\components\com_civicrm\civicrm\CRM\Core\Config.php on line 42


When I tried to manually fix this for the Administrator section I found a way to a repair (I know the wrong word for what I did) with a url command as well as change the Administrator Base url in CIVICRM admin.

Please help........

Actually I think it might be the missing Drive letter in the first include rather than the backslash vs forward slash. I believe that civiCRM can deal with you using forward slashes in windows paths but if you use backslashes you need to use double slashes.

A Double Slash??? Where does that need to go?

Thanks

Here is a copy of my path in civicrm.session.php.

$include_path = '.'        . PATH_SEPARATOR .
                $civicrm_root . PATH_SEPARATOR . 'D:\www\AutismAllianceKC.org\Public\administrator\components\com_civicrm\civicrm\packages' . PATH_SEPARATOR .
             'D:\www\AutismAllianceKC.org\Public\administrator\components\com_civicrm\civicrm\CRM\Core' . PATH_SEPARATOR .
                $civicrm_root . '/' . 'packages' . PATH_SEPARATOR .
                get_include_path( );
            

What do you think is wrong?

These are the settings I change to copy my nix install to my local install

 civicrm.settings.php file on XP


$civicrm_root = 'c:/xampp/htdocs/classes2.2/sites/all/modules/civicrm/';
define( 'CIVICRM_TEMPLATE_COMPILEDIR', 'C:/xampp/htdocs/classes2.2/files/civicrm/templates_c/' );
define( 'CIVICRM_MYSQL_PATH', 'C:/xampp/mysql/bin' );

From memory
$civicrm_root = 'c:\\xampp\\htdocs\\classes2.2\\sites\\all\\modules\\civicrm/';
also works.

I have never needed to touch the include path or path separator

I'm not sure about Joomla settings but you may also need to change settings in 

CiviCRM › Administer CiviCRM › Global Settings Settings - Upload Directories Administer CiviCRM › Global Settings

CiviCRM › Administer CiviCRM › Settings - Update Directory Path and URL

CiviCRM › Administer CiviCRM › Global Settings >Settings - Resource URLs

I know this sounds bad but I had the host move it to a Linux box because I needed it up, like now. Thanks for all of your help. If you wish to continue to help that would be great. I have just started a new thread....

Thanks
Thom
