Wazoo Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 The wikka folks still have yet to set up a support 'forum' ... replying via comments on a wiki page basically sucjs, especially when trying to work around formatting, code, etc. .... so to make things easier (on myself) am bringing this 'conversation' into this application, this spot ... http://wikkawiki.org/UpgradeNotes?show_com...=1#comment_5459 Specific dialog thus far; Hi Guys, I updated to 1.1.6.3 from 1.1.6.1 ... the update screen went "OK" and everything checked out fine. When I went to my site all I got was "Page was generated in 0.0141 seconds" ... that is all, no info, no site, just that one single line. How do I fix this? http://www.freeed.org/ Thank you for your time and help! -- KeitH (2007-05-10 21:10:17) Have you checked out this link? http://wikkawiki.org/BlankPageWorkaround I noticed that the hosting provider is inserting a frame, which might be causing some problems. -- BrianKoontz (2007-05-10 22:36:12) Thank you BrianKoontz... I looked into that and tried it and I still get a page with only the "page generated" time. I copied my backed-up wikka.php from 1.1.6.1 and it gave me an "upgrade" screen on loading the site. I switched it back to the original wikka.php and I am now back to square one again. The site is hosted on my uncles server and he doesn't include frames (at least from what he has told me). Its nothing fancy. If I had a guess it might be some security option he has enabled possibly? He has the latest and greatest PHP and MySQL versions running and everything checked out on the upgrade screens. Any and all suggestions are very welcome at this point. Many thanks for your time and help! -- KeitH (2007-05-11 01:31:58) If you look at the HTML source of the blank page, you'll see an embedded frame. That was the frame I was talking about. I'll do some more testing with 1.1.6.3 to see if I can replicate your problem. -- BrianKoontz (2007-05-11 10:01:58) Hmm, indeed ... thank you BrianKoontz. I also contacted my uncle about it, Im not very good when it comes to PHP and a second pair of eyes always helps. Thank you for looking into this. -- KeitH (2007-05-11 11:29:51) KiethH ... what is currently seen; 05/11/07 21:14:27 Browsing http://www.freeed.org/ Fetching http://www.freeed.org/ ... GET / HTTP/1.1 Host: www.freeed.org Connection: close HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily Content-Length: 0 However, this all there is ... there is no location offered for the 302 redirect ..... One possible issue is the configuration file .. the next being the .htaccess file ... one of them currently "pointing" to a non-existent location .... that is unless you have something else going on at the moment .... -- WazoO (2007-05-11 23:07:03) 'base_url' => 'http://metafocus.net/~freeed/wikka.php?wakka=', Could the "~" be causing the snag? .. .htaccess didn't seem to point to anything. Should it? Here is what it looks like under all the pron "bad referral" stuff: <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> # turn on rewrite engine RewriteEngine on # if request is a directory, make sure it ends with a slash RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d RewriteRule ^(.*/[^/]+)$ $1/ # if not rewritten before, turn request into a query for wikka.php RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !wakka= RewriteRule ^(.*)$ wikka.php?wakka=$1 [QSA,L] </IfModule> -- KeitH (2007-05-11 23:35:30) Quick glance .. the 'base_url' doesn't seem right ... you've actually got more of a 'command' in there .... I don't know the structure of your system, but .... The '~' character is fairly standard for an ISP hosting 'virtual' domains .. typically the 'freeed' part is 'your' account's web space area ... If you nstalled this wikka in the 'root' folder and there is no other .PHP, .HTML, etc. file sitting there, then I would suggest that the 'base_url' definition should read; 'base_url' => 'http://metafocus.net/~freeed/', What I would have suggested way back when would be that you'd have installed this application into its own folder/directory, which then also would have then wanted to see something more like; 'base_url' => 'http://metafocus.net/~freeed/wikka/', hope this helps ... -- WazoO (2007-05-12 23:20:21) Oh, that would make since... I wonder if the updater (since I ran it from freeed.org and NOT metafocus.net/~freed) if the updater put in that tid-bit of code? Hmm... I'll try it tonight when I get home. I think that might be it... I wonder if my domain name masking/forwarding from Godaddy.com is causing the issue?... would it be advisable to either take out that tid-bit of info from the config file, OR just delete it all (except the config file) and try the updater again from the "proper location"? Thank you for your help on this WazoO! I would have never of looked at this. -- KeitH (2007-05-14 10:52:32) Hi guys, I tried re-upgrading it again tonight (after the config file change failed to work). I ran the update from my host directly this time. Sadly ended up with the same results. Though this time I took screen shots to show whats going on during this. Any obvious errors? ... I notice the updater is still putting in that "wikka.php?wakka=" to the config file: http://metafocus.net/~freeed/images/wikka-screen-1.jpg http://metafocus.net/~freeed/images/wikka-screen-2.jpg http://metafocus.net/~freeed/images/wikka-screen-3.jpg http://metafocus.net/~freeed/images/wikka-screen-4.jpg Many thanks once again. -- KeitH (2007-05-15 00:02:39) Answer to this is simply too complicated for this Comment type dialog. I am actually going to toss up data, questions, etc. in an actual support Forum ... please see http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=8287 -- WazoO (2007-05-15 05:43:01) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazoo Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 OK, from the top .... one of the things I'm really curious about is exactly what files are located in the 'root' folder (and a couple of other folders, as far as that goes) ....

GET /wikka.php HTTP/1.1 Host: www.freeed.org Connection: close HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily Content-Length: 0 Location: /wikka.php?7442ea28 Again, nothing but the 302 (Moved) message .... Implication is that the wikka.php is not in the 'root' folder .... but that doesn't mean much, as the .htaccess file probably redirects to somewhere else ...

One could guess that it may be becaise the "HomePage" doesn't yet exist, but .... what you should see there is a nice fully-formed page with the coment "This page doesn't exist yet.

For me to dig any further, I'd have to request FTP data so I could actually login and take a real look at what's where .... please don't post that data publically ....
