edit pages problem #7

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Logged in
2.Added site and page
3.Edit page

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I do not see the edit page, the 3 small blue dots just keep scrolling and
nothing happens

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.0b

Please provide any additional information below.
I am not very clear on the steps for setting up the site.  I am not sure if
site name should be the www or ftp address.  I am also not sure what format
to use for the page path and name.

If i can get it working it will be perfect and would be more than happy to
donate to the project as it is just what i have been looking for after
being frustrated by cushycms being only hosted and downloadable.

Thanks

Can you make sure your data directory is 777 permissions.  

site should be the address.  i.e. www.youresite.com

directory was set to 777
Still not working though.

Here's my settings:
For Site Configuration, here's my settings:
   Site Name ---- www.mydomain.com
   Username ---- myFTPusername
   Password --- myFTPpassword
   Remote Path --- /public_html

Site Pages settings:
   Page Name --- Page 1
   Path --- www.mydomain.com/page1.html

I added the file for a specific user.
Login as editor. 
Still not work :-(

is the remote path really /public_html ?  usually its public_html/ 

Can you try that.  I think thats likely your issue.  it's not very often the 
public_html directory is in the root of the webserver and thats where it will 
try to 
change directories to with that configuration.

Nope still wont work.

I have tried using it on a remote server to update another server, ive also 
tried
running the software on the same server as the files im editing.

Cant get it to work at the edit pages part.

Settings:

   Site Name ---- www.subdomain.domain.com
   Username ---- myFTPusername
   Password --- myFTPpassword
   Remote Path --- public_html/

Site Pages settings:
   Page Name --- about.html
   Path --- www.subdomain.domain.com/about.html

Real shame as this looks perfect for what i need it for.

Could you give us some more detailed instructions on how to set it up maybe??
Thanks
Dave

I guess I solved it.. You have to remember to add the page under the Users and 
then the current user you need 
to edit the page

Same here, ive added them to the user and it doesnt work.  Real shame this 
could have
been fantastic, would certainly have payed for this.

I think this may be the problem.

From inside the data directory, I cannot change the permissions to 777 for these
files (I do have the data directory changed to 777 and the php files within):

pages.dat
sites.dat
userpages.dat
users.dat

I get this error:

Operation could not be completed. Could not change permissions of "pages.dat".
Error -142: remote chmod failed

Any ideas anyone?

Perhaps the page as created has an owner based on the userid running the Web 
server ,
but the ftp user differs and thus cannot make the permission change. Sometimes a
quick PHP script that does the necessary chmods can come in handy, provided
filesystem functions are available.

My remote path: public_html/
Site page path: filename.html

Simple as that. Ma page is located in public_html folder when logged in with 
ftp.
Works like that.

i had this same problem, did eventually getting it working by playing with the 
site configuration settings.

   Site Name ---- www.subdomain.domain.com
   Username ---- myFTPusername
   Password --- myFTPpassword
   Remote Path --- public_html/

i did this, just without the www.subdomain part, i just did domain.com
