[SOLVED] my Global Content Blocks (GCB) vanished

[WolleKK]

Hey there,

at first thanks for creating these great mle-version. Second sorry for my very bad English. I asked first at the German forum but no one knew the answer, but an admin redirected me to the mle forum.
I made my CMSMS-mle website at my local xampp server. It's version 1.6.6 mle. Now I moved my site to a "real" webserver. I had some problems, but after re uploading some times the site works
Well, it nearly works, my Global Content Block "footer" (my only GCB) is not shown. Instead of the footer I have the message:

Code: Select all

string(61) "Smarty error: unable to read resource: "globalcontent:footer"

At backend menu I can choose the GCB, but nothing is shown. Even when I create a new GCB. At the database I can see the content of the GCB.

My server's php is v5.2.0-8+etch15, Apache 2.0, MySQL 5.0.32. Read and write permission should be okay.

Thanks for your help
and best greetings,
Wolfgang

Upgrade CGExtentions  . Upload GCB folder from new mle-fork package Use binary transfer mode.

Hi, thanks for your answer!

I didn't have CGExtensions installed  ;D So I installed it.... and nothing happened  :(
I reuploaded all files with *global* in name... nothing
I also used checksum test. Everything okay. The only thing I think could be the problem is at administrator-->system information-->root_path:  

Code: Select all

/data/www/wollekk/html (0) Fehler

Fehler is German and means error. Behind this message is this red X instead of the green check

OK. Make files (exept config.php) accessible to apache server.
GCB also may require higher php version (up to 5.2.11) your (5.2.0) is 3y old.

Hi Peciura

I made chmod777 to all files at the webserver (except config.php), same problem
I'm sorry I can't update my php server to a higher version. But my server at my localhost worked at php4.x, so it should not be the problem.

Last thing i can think of is to create back up and than to install the same CMSms version but without default content (untick checkbox on step 5 or 6).

[WolleKK]

No change happened

BUT I found a potential reason. Admin->Global->MLE Languages

Code: Select all

You have a OLD config_lang.php (pre 1.6). Please checks ALL values BELOW and Submit for create a correct new version of config_lang.php!

But I just reinstalled v1.6.6
The content of my config_lang.php is

Code: Select all

<?php

/*******
 SINTAX:
 'KEY' => array(
	'locale_cms' => 'LOCALE LANGUAGE IN CMSMS', //MANDATORY One valid CMSMS locale or near to
	'block' => 'DATABASE KEY', //MANDATORY AND UNIQUE In general 2 chars same of 'parent'
	'parent' => 'PARENT LANGUAGE', //OPTIONAL 2 chars parent language, if you have others set to 5 WITH DASH, ex: en-AU
	'flag' => 'HTML IMG TAG FOR LOCALE FLAG', //MANDATORY ABSOLUTE URL PATH
	'text' => 'NATIVE LANGUAGE', //OPTIONAL Use for lang plugin if you don't use flags icon
	'locale' => 'SERVER LOCALE', //OPTIONAL Set for specific locale server if different from 'locale_cms'
 ),
 *******/

define('DEFAULT_LANG', 'de_DE');


$hls = array(
 'en' => array(
	'locale_cms'=>'en_US',
	'block'=>'en',
	'parent'=>'en',
	'flag'=>'<img src="uploads/lang/us.png" style="border:0;opacity:1;" alt="English" title="English" />',
	'text'=>'English',
	'locale'=>'en_US.UTF-8'
 ),
 'de' => array(
	'locale_cms'=>'de_DE',
	'block'=>'de',
	'parent'=>'de',
	'flag'=>'<img src="uploads/lang/de.png" style="border:0;opacity:1;" alt="Deutsch (German)" title="Deutsch (German)" />',
	'text'=>'Deutsch (German)',
	'locale'=>'de_DE.UTF-8'
 ),
);
?>

Default lang is German. Sometimes when I click on sites I have to choose a language before I can click the content sites.

[Peciura]

Code: Select all

define('DEFAULT_LANG', 'de_DE');

this line is from old config_lang.php.

Set default language to German in "Site Admin » Global Settings » MLE languages".
If default language is not set the first member of "$hls" is assumed to be default language. So if your "config_lang.php" looked like this probably you would not have any issues.

Code: Select all

<?php
$hls = array(
 'de' => array(
	'locale_cms'=>'de_DE',
	'block'=>'de',
	'parent'=>'de',
	'flag'=>'<img src="uploads/lang/de.png" style="border:0;opacity:1;" alt="Deutsch (German)" title="Deutsch (German)" />',
	'text'=>'Deutsch (German)',
	'locale'=>'de_DE.UTF-8'
 ),
 'en' => array(
	'locale_cms'=>'en_US',
	'block'=>'en',
	'parent'=>'en',
	'flag'=>'<img src="uploads/lang/us.png" style="border:0;opacity:1;" alt="English" title="English" />',
	'text'=>'English',
	'locale'=>'en_US.UTF-8'
 ),

);
?>

Also test mle settings http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... #msg183059

The mle-test said everything was alright

But updating the config_lang actually was the reason of the failure. Now it is working. Thank you very very much. You helped me a lot
