CMS Made Simple Forums

I rarely have problems when I install php programs on my apache/unix hosting. but I did everything right for the cmsmadesimple latest version 1.04....step 1 to 4 ok 5 wouldnt go but the program runs


Everything is fine but a fatal error at Content>Pages section

Fatal error: Class 'ContentBase' not found in /hsphere/local/home/xxxxxxxx/cyber-date-me.com/cms/lib/classes/contenttypes/Content.inc.php on line 21

Is this a bug?

Can anyone help please?

You are used to PHP software installing, so it can't be FTP file upload corruption, can it ?

If it is not this, please remind me what step 5 is and what went wrong while step 5.

If it were a bug I'd expect it to be reported by others too.
The ContentBase class is defined in /lib/classes/class.content.inc.php

Maybe not all files got uploaded/overwritten correctly (as Pierre M. suggested)?

i can't stand uploading cms scripts via ftp... all those farkin little files take forever to transfer.. and i always seem to have at least one file that gets corrupt or doesn't transfer right...

so i upload an entire zip (or tarball, whatever the case may be) of whatever i'm installing to the directory it will eventually be set up. then i use webshell (comes with hsphere control panel) to extract that archive. once it's extracted, its quick work in webshell to chmod the few folders that need to be writable for cmsms to function.

this is MUCH faster than ftp (and more reliable), with its obnoxiously large overhead when transferring lots of little bitty files.  and, i can keep the archive on the server for next time its needed.

(note that the distribution cmsms archive contains a root folder 'cmsmadesimple' that everything will extract into. so i made a new archive without that extra folder, so the contents of the site root will extract to the archive's current location)

Yer....that was it.......lousy corrupt files doing it the ftp way. All is OK,......thanks for all your help.
