CMS Made Simple Forums

The page load with the error messages:

Warning: Compilation failed: unrecognized character after (? at offset 2 in /home/httpd/vhosts/sitename.tld/httpdocs/cms/index.php on line 126

I get this error message when:
  $config['use_hierarchy'] = true;

When I change as follows:
  $config['use_hierarchy'] = false;
No error messages and page loads OK.

Using:
$config['assume_mod_rewrite'] = true;

Thankls, Darly

I leave to others experts but I believe that red row does not work if you enable RewriteBase:

Try to use:
RewriteBase /cms
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?page=$1 [QSA]

Made changes and results follows:

No error - works

Note:
$config['use_hierarchy'] = true;

Google sentence within quotes:
"Warning: Compilation failed: unrecognized character after (? at offset 2 in"

preg_match() issue ?

Can you post a link to phpinfo?

I'm suspecting either corrupt files from when you uploaded (very likely if you uploaded via FTP) or some odd config with PHP.

Everything works except Pretty URLs hierarchy.

Hello,

FTP or SSH ?

Please try to clear the server's cache.

Pierre M.

FTP (Filezilla) latest version.
Reuploaded all distribution files.

Error occurs when I enable hierarchy in config.php
$config['use_hierarchy'] = true;

Error disappear when I disable hierarchy in config.php
$config['use_hierarchy'] = false;

Note: Everything else works (Admin & Front-end)

According to the requirements, PHP 4.3.2 may be not enough for beautifying URLs.

Pierre M.

@ Pierre, Exactly right!

Requirements
-------------------
PHP 4.3+

    * 4.3.3+ required for pretty URL's
    * Working PHP sessions
    * PHP Tokenizer support
