Error after uploading site from dev machine
July 08, 2009, 06:40:21 pm
Hello,

I upgraded to CiviCRM 2.2.7 on my development box at home and it's working nicely. Then I uploaded both databases (including Drupal, since I had set permissions for CiviReport) to our hosted test server. I replaced sites/all/modules/civicrm with the 2.2.7 version, set config_backend to NULL, cleared Drupal caches but now I only get the following error:

Quote
Error: Could not create directory: /usr/www/users/myusername/mysubdomaindirectory/sites/all/modules/civicrm/en_US/.

If you have moved your database from a development install to a production install and the directory paths are different, please set the column config_backend in the civicrm_domain table to NULL. You will need to reinitialize your settings in the production install.

I'd already set config_backend to NULL. I'm not sure why there is an attempt to create sites/all/modules/civicrm/en_US/ since I thought that was supposed to go in /sites/default/files/civicrm/templates_c. I then deleted templates_c, but I still get the same error.

I've done this migration before without this error. Any ideas what's up and what I can do?

Had the same problem from a clean install with Drupal 6.13 and Civi 2.2.7.  Did an install with 6.12/2.2.7 just yesterday on the same server but a different account and it worked fine with zero issues.  Then I realized I made the same mistake about a week ago and left PHP safe mode on messing everything up.

Thanks coryms, Safe Mode is off in my case, however. And I'm still on Drupal 6.12 until this gets cleared up.

I had multiple problems but now it seems to be working fine. Whew! Now I can get back to testing the new reporting features.

Somehow my CiviCRM settings file had /sites/all/modules/civicrm/en_US/ as the template compiler location instead of /sites/default/files/civicrm/templates_c. No idea how that happened, but once that was fixed, off I went merrily to my next error message:

Quote
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'XML data could not be loaded. Make sure you specified the correct path.' in /home/blah/public_html/drupal/sites/all/modules/civicrm/packages/IDS/Filter/Storage.php:217...

Luckily I found this when searching for that error: "How to move CiviCRM to another location"
http://akekarat.com/content/how-move-civicrm-another-location

I can't attest to all of the info in this article, but one piece that did the trick was this:

Quote
[when migrating CiviCRM, you should also] delete /civicrm/upload/Config.IDS.ini (contains URL values and will be rebuilt with correct settings if deleted)

In the past, deleting templates_c fixed a lot of problems after a migration. From now on, I'll also routinely delete Config.IDS.ini as well.
