CMS Made Simple Forums

my host copied a CMSMS 1.11.7 website to a new server.

Initially, things looked good, a few glitches not related to CMSMS. I then deleted the cache (site admin -> system maintenance) and one template does not find the stylesheet.

I admit, there's a third party module involved (CMSMS_shop_skin_helper) but i believe CMSMS does not create the combined_stylesheet (not found, i browsed to that location, too). I see a few stylesheets, and clear cache removes them all, but the one template does not recreate its stylesheet. why would that be?

the working site is http://www.rpc.com.au
to access the copied site add
to your host file.

the Products template does not work.

note: some of the modules are outdated as old server still runs on PHP 5.2

Cheers

I've seen this problem before when there was a smarty error in the stylesheet.

The stylesheet error would prevent the .css file from being created in the tmp/cache directory, but the tag would still be generated to the HTML.

Remembering that [[ and ]] are smarty tags in stylesheets... I would advise you to review each of these stylesheets and see what could be causing the problem.

Thanks
the website was built before stylesheets were combined, hence I only have ONE stylesheet for screen, and one for print that are maintained in CMSMS. (the odd hardcoded css file may exist as file). so if the stylesheet loads in some templates but not in others, can I assume the stylesheet syntax is not the issue?

Ok, found the problem (me to blame).

the shop_skin_helper configuration had a hardcoded URL going to the live site, and while my host file was resolving the URL to the new IP address, shop_skin_helper was retrieving the data from live server, which is mostly the same except for the obscure CSS link.
