Menu's don't work on new install.......

Post by Donoss »

Hi,

Unfortunately I'm not sure of version numbers except that I'm running cmsms 0.13 and PHP 4 as I'm on a hosted service.  I've just done a complete new install of cmsms which appeared to be OK.  However, when I click a menu I get the following url "index.php/home" and error "Internal Server Error, this is an error with your script, check your error log for more information." instead of the url "index.php?page=home".

Can anyone please point me in the right direction?

Many thanks

Andy

Yeah, you must be in a situation where you can't use the internal url stuff.  Set internal_pretty_urls and use_hierarchy to false in your config.php.

Hello everyone:

Brand new cmsms user here.

I have just installed the latest version and am having similar problems to those indicated in this thread.

Install was successful (I did get to my homepage after install) but all url's are out of whack.

/cgi-bin/php/ is being added to the path for my files (when I click on links) but these directories (in reality) do not exist

I edited my config.php as advised in one of the above posts and changed this line.

$config['internal_pretty_urls'] = true;    to false.

Now my top link titled 'Skip to Navigation' (on my home page) works, but the other links still have the same error.

Editing the incorrect file paths out (after clicking on links) will restore most function

I am removing this the /cgi-bin/php/ part from the path.

Can anyone please advise?

I am unable to login as admin as well (because of this problem)

Thank you

david A

David! Don't you know better than to ask silly questions, before editing your root file path in your config.php file first?

Shame on you  :)
