Geeklog Forums

I'm upgrading to 1.4. and I unpacked the zip file and I'm wondering where do these folders that are outside the public_html folder should be placed in my server. I have a www directory, which I access using an ftp client, and below that there is public_html and a bunch of other directories for another website. Should I place the folders here as in my installation package or place them all under public_html?

Well, if you're upgrading - where are the files now? Your config.php, especially. That should give you an idea how to set things up.

config.php is in public_html. So does that mean all the folders in the installation package should be placed under public_html folder on my server?

Ugh. Wrong place entirely. Who set this up?

Try Alternative installation instructions and Installing Geeklog entirely within the web root

Visual overview was very helpful. I guess the guy who set this up didn't know where to place the folders and so he put every single folder under the public_html, and that threw me off a bit too because the instructions are a bit vague on this. I'm now going to transfer the upgrade folders to the top level directory and remove the extraneous contents from the public_html. It's going to get messy. But I'm surprised that the site worked as well as it did under such a faulty setup.

Thanks, Dirk.
