CMS Made Simple Forums

I moved my brand new 1.12 install from a cmsms subdirectory i initially installed it into, to the root public_html folder on the server and since then i have been unable to add UDT's.

It gives an error stating that it could not find the path
But the file is there at that location. Is there somewhere else where the admin directory path is located that i need to update for it to correctly find the file?

We need way more info to really help you...

Did you do a checksum to see if everything actually made it to the server..?

A quick cure for the problem is to install your cms again.

BUT VERY IMPORTANT:
First make a backup of your current database
Upload a fresh cms and start the installation
at step 5 uncheck 'Create tables' and 'Install sample content and templates'.

Hi Dr - that's very true, i was just wondering whether there are general issues with moving an installation. For example, perhaps you are supposed to update some setting somewhere or some file somewhere. I updated the .htaccess file and checked the config.php file. Just not sure of any other places where it is suppose to be updated. I also cleared cache. And yes, all the files were there at the start.

Actually, since this is a brand new installation, the judo solution is just dump everything and reinstall - even the database. I don't want to waste time debugging something that can be fixed by reinstalling, but i also want to learn how to successfully move an isntalltion for future reference.


EDIT: Turns out the issue was with the UDT and not CMSMS! Weird... never knew an error in a UDT could give a result like this...
