CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi

I have just moved to a new host - webfaction.

A fresh install of 1.9.4.2 seems to install fine - with all the requirements ticked. However, as soon as you go to create a page, it doesn't show up in the 'pages' admin panel - nor if you duplicate the default home page.

I have tried a fresh installation with PHP 5.3.5 and PHP 5.2.11 and both had the same problem.

MYSQL Server version: 5.0.77
Protocol version: 10
MySQL charset: UTF-8 Unicode (utf8)

The new pages are being created in the database, they are just not being shown in the admin area - or the front end for that matter.

Using the same install file works fine on a different budget server (way to slow though).

I don't know what else to try?

HELP!

Thanks

Nik

Have you set the servers time when installing?...

I set the timezone, but not the time - not sure what you mean.

The server is in Amsterdam - and I am in London.

In the config it has $config['timezone'] = 'Europe/London';


I just tried importing the sql from the install that worked on the budget server to the install that didnt work on webfaction. This has fixed it - but I cant do that for every install. I wonder what the problem is.

You need to set that to the time zone the server is in not your time zone...

Ahhhh - right!

I'll try again and see the result. Hang on...

Thanks Dr CSS

That seems to have worked - but how do I now get local times in entries like news?

In the Site Admin section...

Thanks Dr CSS -

Maybe I'm being thick, but the only time modification I can see in the site admin is strftime. This wont help me though surely.

Surely I need all the timestamps to be relevant to my own location not the servers.

Sorry - Im a bit confused now.

[edit - surely this is doubly important for calendar events]

Hi again

I cant seem to get to the bottom of this.
I need to have the local time set for events and news, rather than the server local time.

If I have to use the server location at install, how do I then correct for the time difference, so that the correct timestamps are created for my location?

Many thanks for your help.

Nik
