CMS Made Simple Forums

Hope someone can help... We moved the CMSMS site to new hosting. Updated the config file with the new MySQL settings and paths etc. But the page is not rendering properly. I have turned on HTML errors, so can someone take a look and let me know any suggestions!

Thanks in advance.

I have now improved things slightly, one of the paths was incorrect and also needed to reset directory permissions on the tmp folder.

It now loads the overall template file, but I keep getting tag errors on all content pages, please take a look and let me know your thoughts...

file needs loading

string(118) "Smarty error: [in template:21 line 29]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'Content' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 590)"

At first glance it seems you are missing some files.

OK, I have re-uploaded all the files from the old hosting account and no change. Is there anyway of finding which file?
Please any more suggestions - this is really bugging me and the client!

Backup all your site first (files and MySQL).

Run install procedure on your broken site, but don't install default content it also will overwrite config.php so make sure you have it in a back up as a reference.

- Make a backup of files and database first.
- Copy the install folder back on to the server.
- Open website.com/install
- Follow the steps, but DON'T create tables and default content in step 5 it was I think. Uncheck this options.
- A new config.php is created with all the right serverpaths.
- Delete the install folder and chmod444 the config.php file.

OK, was hoping that would do it!

But unfortunately no

No change...

Ok, have you tried to repair with fresh  "cmsmadesimple-1.6.7-full.tar.gz" package ?
Also you can check package integrity with "cmsmadesimple-1.6.7-full-checksum.dat".
I prefer php 5.2+ and MySQL 5+.
Have you managed to run it on XAMPP on PC ?

The site is only running version 1.5.2, so I like the idea of upgrading and repairing to the latest version. Could you kindly clarify the process for doing this so I don't make the situation worse! Thanks.

Upgrading is similar to installation ( run "/install/upgrade.php"; complete guide is here http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... /Upgrading).
Actually on PC you are safe to run upgrade over broken site and to accomplish two goals at once. But just to make sure what i am solving i would use "cmsmadesimple-1.5.2-full.tar.gzz" and "cmsmadesimple-1.5.2-full-checksum.dat" and make site running on local machine, then fix production site.
