Pages wont update/refresh!

Post by duplay »

I have my CMS site on my MAC server for a couple months now, and when I select a page, open it, and either edit a current html link, or try to add new material to it, it doesnt reflect the changes on the web. If I do a preview, it shows. I submit, then revisit the page I just edited, it shows the edited info on the page via the CMS admin interface, but it never shows on actual live page.


The only work around I have found it to recreate the page new and add the link to the new page. Any help?

activate debug mode and look for errors, I think someone else had a similar problem and it was because the db user didn't have upgrade rights...

Can you please explain how to activate debug mode and to look for errors? Also, how can I check on if my DB user has upgrade rights. I am the admin of the DB?

Thanks,

in config.php there is a setting for debug mode (defaults to false)

mysql rights:

SHOW GRANTS FOR 'cms_user'@'hostname';

where hostname probably is localhost.

I have the debug on and see them at the bottom of the page. Would you like me to paste them to here? I see the word Error (0) (does that mean no error?) I can paste them all here if that will will. You also posted the mysql code to see rights for my db user? Where does that go? Thanks

error(0) means no error.

you can run that sql code from any sqlclient. (in linux just run mysql -uUSERNAME -p DATABASENAME and run the command) I think phpmyadmin can run sql code too but Im not too familiar with it...

Do you want me to post the debug here? It will allow me to changes pages, but not view live?

I have checked the rights for the DB users and I have full acess as well as my CMS user is set as a admin. I have other sites on the same server that were set up with the same db login and they are able to update without error. I am able to create new pages w/o issue, but it wont let me update links that are on a page or wihin a table. any thoughts?Thanks

I have the same problem after moving servers and upgrading from CMSMS v1.0.4 to 1.2, PHP4.4.3 to PHP 5.2.0 and Mysql 4.4.x to 5.0.33.

I haven't tried what tsw suggested yet, but i will in about a minute. Any further input would be great though. Oh yeah, and clearing the cache doesn't help either.

edit: Ok, it seems like the new server has some sort of caching mechanism. So i won't see updates to the site before that one has updated as well....
