Geeklog Forums

Will someone please help!!!!


Page 1:

Hint: The complete path to this file is /home/content/l/i/b/libby86/html/geeklog/public_html/admin/install/install.php
and it appears your Path to Geeklog is /home/content/l/i/b/libby86/html/geeklog

My path is: mydomain.com/geeklog/public_htm/admin/install/install.php

config.php being in the geeklog directory

Page 2:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/content/l/i/b/libby86/html/geeklog/config.php on line 362


Line 362:

$_CONF['site_enabled'] = true; // true or false

Thanks to all who help this Newbie

This usually means there is a missing quote mark or parenthesis or bracket or something on a previous line. If you are comfortable with code, comment out a few lines above 362 to find the line causing the error. If not, reply to this with 10 or so lines of your config.php just before line 362.

Thanks for responding.




I do not know the code but do know about paths and syntax errors. Eariler I found a syntax error which got me to Page 1.

Here is the code you asked for:

// Please note that this does not work when safe_mode is on!
//
// For more information, see this discussion on geeklog.net:
// http://www.geeklog.net/forum/viewtopic.php?showtopic=21232
// $_CONF['timezone'] = 'Etc/GMT-6'; // e.g. 6 hours behind GMT
// Bob ADDED THE SCRIPT BELOW FROM THE ABOVE FORUM.
// IF IT DON'T WORK, TRY '/GMT-4
require_once('/path/to/config.php';

if ( !empty($_CONF['timezone'])
&& !ini_get("safe_mode") {
putenv("TZ=".$_CONF['timezone']='US/MICHIGAN);
}
// +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
// | SITE STATUS |
// | |
// | To disable your Geeklog site quickly, simply set this flag to false |
// +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
$_CONF['site_enabled'] = true; // true or false

Thanks for responding.



I did this and found one error which got me to Page 1. I do not know the language yet.

Change the require once code.

Change the require once code.

[/p][/QUOTE]

I tried many variations of the path and they all gave the exact same error message on page one. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Update:

I rem the time zone out and still get the same message on page 1.

Is that require_once in your config.php? That is completely wrong. How'd it get there?

You might want to extract a clean config.php from an archive and start over with it because there should be no require_once statements in the config.php.

As Joe said: Remove that require_once and that timezone code from your config.php - it doesn't belong there.

Get your site working first, then you can start worrying about the timezone.
