CMS Made Simple Forums

hello, i have developed a cmsms suite on my server... and have moved it to the client server. i backed up the sql and restored it on the client server, then i copied all the files to the proper directory. (CHMOD'D the proper files to 777)

now when i load the site in a browser from the client server, i get smarty errors...

string(118) "Smarty error: [in template:27 line 6]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'metadata' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 590)" string(118) "Smarty error: [in template:27 line 70]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'content' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 590)"
string(117) "Smarty error: [in template:20 line 14]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'search' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 590)"

now, when i go into the admin, i can see where the modules are not loading... it says that my modules folder needs to be set at 777...  the only crazy thig is that it is! (mac osx and transmit were used for the file uploading but i've not had an issue with it before.

when in the modules section of the admin, i am offered an opportunity to change the permission of the modules... when i click that link i get this error..

Warning: chmod() [function.chmod]: No such file or directory in /home/.qadimoven/epoch/stophitting.org/lib/misc.functions.php on line 1000

is my config.php file not set up correctly as well?

note: as for the visual part of the site, the templates part will load... just not the content section where i put the content tag for the template to grab a page. (i am assuming because of the modules being "dead")

i'm just trying to get a direction i need to go in from anyone, thanks.

update:

I did a fresh install of cmsms onto the client's server... after the install i opened the config.php file and compared it to the one i had. they didn't match up. so i stripped all the paths from the new config.php and pasted them into the old config.php and it worked.. sorta.

all my content shows up, but the search module and the news module will not work. in the admin under modules it says both are ok.

but when i go into "news" under content i get this error...

Fatal error: Call to a member function GetFriendlyName() on a non-object in /home/.qadimoven/epoch/stophitting.org/admin/moduleinterface.php on line 124

and the search button doesn't show up where i placed the tag

any ideas?

Just guessing, but make sure the content cache's are cleared out:

tmp/cache
tmp/templates_c

also check the php settings for the session path, memory limits
