Geeklog Forums

I've installed Geeklog in the directory /home/richard/etc/geeklog/ I've installed the Geeklog public_html files in the directory /home/richard/brewhouse/blog/ I've edited the file /home/richard/etc/geeklog/config.php to reflect those values. I've edited the file /home/richard/brewhouse/blog/lib-common.php to include, at line 69, the following:

require_once( '/home/richard/etc/geeklog/config.php' );[/code]    
   
Now, when I run the install script and fill in the above value for the Path to Geeklog, I get an error page with the message:

    
Geeklog Installation - Error

   Geeklog could not find config.php in the path you just entered: /home/richard/etc/geeklog
   Please check this path and try again.
   
When I run the check.php script, I get the following:

   
Warning: main(/home/richard/etc/geeklog/config.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/richard/public_html/brewhouse/blog/lib-common.php on line 69

   Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required  '/home/richard/etc/geeklog/config.php'    (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/richard/public_html/brewhouse/blog/lib-common.php on line 69
   
As far as I can figure out, permissions are set correctly:

-rwxr--r--    1 richard  richard  ...  lib-common.php[/code] 
and:

-rwxrwxr-x    1 richard  richard   ...  config.php[/code] 
    
Can anyone suggest what I need to do next?

Thanks.

Did you check the permissions on the directory your config.php is in? Btw, none of the .php files needs to be executable. bye, Dirk

The permissions for the geeklog directory are set to 755; I haven\'t changed those. I had set the php files to be executable as part of the flailing that us *nix newbies go through when we\'re trying to make something work I\'ve set it back to 644 and continue to get the same error. Any other ideas? I thought that perhaps I had misunderstood how the virtual server paths mapped to absolute paths. But cd\'ing to the geeklog directory and giving the pwd command from the shell confirms that the path is correct. Thanks for the help... Richard
