Portal in root?
« on: September 22, 2011, 03:57:11 PM »
I have been looking around the forum here, and the question has been asked in a few ways, but I am not seeing what I need to know..

I would like my portal located in the domains root www.mydomain.com
and my forum is located in www.mydomain.com/forum
just like at http://demo.simpleportal.net/

I installed simple portal (using SMF package installer)
was I not supossed to do that?
the install went smooth and I like the features so far, I think it will work for us.
can I just move some file (or files) over to the root to make it work?
or do I need to remove/re-install it another way?
I just want to use Simple portal as a front page so to speak.. like a little preview of the forum
fogive me for asking a question I know must have asked and answered many times

if I do what it says here http://simpleportal.net/index.php?action=docs;area=set_up_standalone_portal
I get line after line of errors when I load the main page unless I disable the portal, then it forwards the main page to /forum

Please tell us, very specifically
* Where exactly your standalone portal file is located, and what it is called.
* In your standalone portal file, what exactly is the whole line which starts with $forum_dir
* In index.php?action=admin;area=serversettings;sa=database, what do you have in SMF Directory
* In index.php?action=admin;area=portalconfig;sa=generalsettings , what do you have in Standalone URL

Thanks

ok.. sorry for the delay, been a busy weekend...

portal mode           "Standalone"
Standalone URL      http://www.michiganwhitetails.net/index.php

this is in the portalstandalone.php file (Uploaded to the websites root directory and renamed to index.php)
(it was already filled in for me)
Code: [Select]
// Should be the full path!

$forum_dir = '/home/pczhosti/public_html/michiganwhitetails.net/forum';
when I load the homepage
www.michiganwhitetails.net I get this...

I am a bit confused on your last 2 questions..
what index.php file?
do you mean the one I just renamed to index.php?
or another one?

in the forums admin panel.. under databases and paths it says:
forum URL    http://www.michiganwhitetails.net/forum
SMF directory  /home/pczhosti/public_html/michiganwhitetails.net/forum

what else?

Unless I am mistaken, instead of standalone you wanted the Portal as your front page?  I recommended you uninstall the portal and install it as your front page.

Right now, you have redirection of /index.php to /forum/index.php?

You did this in your .htaccess file?

This is exactly what it should do. When you disable the portal, you are telling SimplePortal not to show the portal. So it shows the forum, instead.  The SimplePortal standalone portal is meant to work as part of your forum.

I understand you disabled the portal because of the errors.
The errors seem to be related to a problem setting up $context
I cannot understand how 'html_headers' would be unset after DetectBrowser had been run.

What happens if you run SimplePortal  in "Front Page" mode instead of in Standalone mode?

Something is very wrong, and I don't know that it is SimplePortal's fault.
A bunch of stuff that should be set up in $context is not set up, and I don't know why.
What other mods do you have installed?

I'm not sure about the problem myself but you even have errors on ssi_examples.php file:

http://www.michiganwhitetails.net/forum/ssi_examples.php

It's probably related, since SimplePortal relies on SSI.php. If you get that solved, you should be able to run SimplePortal just fine.

2. SMF 2.0.1 Update 1.0

any clues where I would start looking to find a cure?

I am going to guess that the problem may have occured with the 2.0.1 update.
I am guessing this because of missing $context in Load.php

Another possible problem could be with the  SimplePortal install.
Did you uninstall SimplePortal before the 2.0.1 update, and then install it again afterwards?
