Moving Joomla!/CiviCRM to production site causes problems
September 15, 2009, 01:22:26 pm
Hey there,

I recently built a Joomla! powered CiviCRM site and everything went well. Now that teh website is finished, I moved it to the live domain and I get the following errors:

Code: [Select]
Warning: require_once(CRM/Core/Config.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/balanszw/public_html/components/com_civicrm/civicrm.php on line 19

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'CRM/Core/Config.php' (include_path='.:/public_html/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm:/public_html/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/packages:.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/balanszw/public_html/components/com_civicrm/civicrm.php on line 19
As far as I know I made all the steps that are described in this forum thread but nothing seems to help. Can anyone help me out with this?

Your answers and help are much appreciated!

Franklin - I would double check both copies of your settings files (civicrm.settings.php) - in <joomla_root>/components/com_civicrm and <joomla_root>/administrator/components/com_civicrm - and particularly the civicrm_root value.

Also double check this step:
Joomla: Update the following file to use the correct path:
    * /administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/civicrm.config.php

Based on the error, one of your config settings is still pointing to the directory structure from your development install (which I assume was in /home/balanszw/public_html/components/com_civicrm)

This seems to be essential information which is not to be found on the "Moving an Existing Install" wiki page...

Sure. Unfortunately this important tip did not help me out. I had high hopes that this was the important piece that I was missing, but it was not.

Maybe I should start a new topic, but I used Akeeba (Joomla is my CMS) to backup the complete site, excluded the tables, content and files as suggested in the "Moving" wiki article, but still I get a 500 message which is kind of more serious. BTW, I get that also when trying the "rebuild menu" and the "updateConfigBackend" URL:s.

I suppose I'll have to look at the server logs (somehow...)

Ok. Works now. I just missed a few file paths. I've updated the documentation with a tip based on my experiences.
