5.1 install problems

[redmtnex +]

Hi
I am having a problem with the 5.1 install. This is on a godaddy server. Everything appears to install correctly, I get no errors during the install. All the server checks have a green check mark. In the config.php I did have to change

$config['index_page'] = "index.php";

to

$config['index_page'] = "index.php?";

in order to get any pages to load. After the install I select the link to go to the control panel and it asks for my password but it never gets to the control panel. I just get a page with a header, a left navigation and a 404 error for the body. If I select any of the navigation the url reflects that I am on that page but only see the 404 error. I have it installed here, 404 - Page not Found | Toyota

Thanks
Greg

Do you have anything in your .htaccess file?

[redmtnex +]

I have a .htaccess file in the directory which holds the 4.2.1 installation but I believe it is to make Search Engine optimaization run correctly. There is no .htaccess file in the 5.01 directory. Root toyotamotorhome.com, 4.2.1 in classifieds dir, 5.01 in classified dir. A copy of the htaccess in the 4.2.1 dir is below.

Might note something else here also. The included readme file directs you to here for installation instructions

http://v5.68classifieds.com/user_guide/installation/instructions

The instructions tell you to use this url structure to access the installation script

www.yoursite.com/index.php/setup

That would not work for me, I had to use

www.yoursite.com/setup/index.php

in order to run the installation. Is that a error in the instructions or an error on the site?

[seymourjames +]

Normally it is this

http://www.yoursite.com/index.php/setup

but you are in a a subdirectory called classifieds. So I thnk it is this

http://www.yoursite.com/classifieds/index.php/setup

However, this does not work. I notice that you have to use the ? in your urls which is silly. I just got to the set up screen like this

http://www.yoursite.com/classifieds/index.php?/setup

What does your hosting provider say. Why are you put the ? into your config file to make

config['index_page'] = "index.php?";

Did you upload your v5 files to a subfolder that you created or did you upload to the same folder as your v4 installation?

Adding the ? after .php here Installation Troubleshooting | 68 Classifieds Documentation
If I do not add the ? I can not even load a page.

4.2.1 is in the subdirectory classifieds
5.01 is is the subdirectory classified

So yes my path is www.yoursite.com/classified/ for the 5.02 install

So it seems that your server as documented in the user guide, is not set up for the path_info variable and adding the ? to your index.php seems to work.

It doesn't seem that you actually changed that in the config file however, because all of the links show as index.php/ which we've established does not work on your server configuration.

That was it. I thought I had changed and uploaded it but I guess in all the re-install etc I did it did not get changed. Just changed it and now there is a site to see! Thank you
