Geeklog Forums

I've read quite a number of posts about Dreamweaver MX 2004 corrupting lib-common.php and used to face the same problem myself. I knew it was a problem with Geeklog since other CMS such as PHP-Nuke worked on my test server.

I downloaded Geeklog v1.3.11, extracted it with WinRAR, edited config.php & lib-common.php with Dreamweaver (with Code Rewriting disabled) and tested my installation. Installation went fine but yielded a blank page at success.php and index.php. Error messages shown made me conclude that lib-common.php was corrupted.

I'm aware of Dreamweaver corrupting lib-common.php, thus, I decided to update Dreamweaver to v7.0.1 to see if it made any difference.

I reinstalled Geeklog v.1.3.11 and redid the steps that I mentioned above.

The good news is - it works! Since the only change I made was updating Dreamweaver, its the only thing I can conclude helped fix the problem.

Anyway, I'm not 100% sure if this is the fix for editing Geeklog with Dreamweaver, so perhaps other users here might like to conduct the same experiment and let us know if it works.

That's strange, I've been using Dreamweaver 4.0 at work and MX Studio at home with no problem...
