Geeklog Forums

I have tried to install the Geeklog-1.4.0sr3 in CentOS 4,3 but http://localhost/public_html/admin/install/check.php gives the following error me:
Template Error: set_root: professional is not to directory.
Halted

that I have done badly?

I have guided itself by http://barnadriva.net/staticpages/index.php?page=20050828003503372

Make sure you're using absolute paths in your config.php

bye, Dirk

This is what appears in my error.log file

- 1146:Table ´geeklog.gl_plugins´ doesn´t exist. SQL in question:SELECT pi_name FROM gl_plugins WHERE pi_enabled = 1

Please help me

Did you run the install script? Did it succeed? Doesn't look like it ...

bye, Dirk

It continues giving he himself error to me of before (Template Error: set_root: professional is not to directory.Halted) , I can see:

http://localhost/admin/install/install.php and
http://localhost/admin/install/chek.php

I have reviewed config.php several times and I do not see the error, I believe that the problem is in theme

Change that back to what it was originally, i.e.

bye, Dirk

It did not give result, continues he himself error

I believe that the error is here

$_CONF['path_layout'] = $_CONF['professional'] . $_CONF['theme'] . '/';

Indeed - I missed that. Why did you even change that?

Change it back to

$_CONF['path_layout'] = $_CONF['path_themes'] . $_CONF['theme'] . '/';

bye, Dirk

I already have I am everything, thank you very much

$_CONF['site_url'] = 'http://localhost/public_html'
