Hello all,

Its been a while since my last Geeklog install, but can someone tell me what I am missing. I just finished the 1.3.10 install, and the url had success, but the page says cannot be found, and when I tried getting to the site with my IP address, all I get was Index of all my public_html folders.

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

  1. Check your $_CONF['site_url'] for correctness

  2. Make sure the webserver is configured to look for an index.php file (in Apache, that would be the DirectoryIndex directive)

Thanks Dirk, but you listed 4 things and only 2 are showing.

I just included the index.php in my directoryindex directive in httpd.conf, and I still got the same index of my public_html.

This is what the line looks like now:

DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.html.var

I am running Apache 2.0.52, PHP 4.3.9 and Mysql 4.1.7

My domain is still not fully registered yet, but I have put the name in my installation. however, it is not going through except when I type localhost.

The domain is supposed to eventually be

http://www.fema.gov.ng and the registrar is just about to point the name to my IP address.

I have the domain name in my Apache conf file, and in Geeklog Config.php file. But when I type the url it does not go however, when I type localhost/index.php, it showed Geeklog page with broken RED Xs.

Thanks

Sorry, I messed that up - it was supposed to only have 2 items.

Did you restart the webserver afterwards?

If it isn't registered (or known in DNS), then you can't use it.

Thanks Dirk,

But I found a way around it, by putting the diomain in my hosts file. Once I did that, I was able to get in and do Admin work.

The problem now is that when I changed Admin name to my name and changed the password, when I clicked on save, all I got was a WHITE PAGE. It did not take me back to the geeklog Page. When I refreshed the page, it was still a white page, but when I clicked on the
Is this happening because of DNS?

Thanks

You may have a parse or syntax error. Check your webserver's error_log file and try to change the PHP config (in php.ini) so that it displays error messages.
