Unable to view any new pages - shaunybee - 2015-02-10

Hi - default install on digitalocean. Apache2/php5. Installed getsimple into /var/www/html which is the default location. Still using root user. Chmod data and backups etc as required. Did all renaming etc for .htaccess etc files. Admin tool runs fine. Lets me create pages or change themes and content.

*but* I can see no new pages at all - all return Not Found error.

I figure this is probably a permissions thing. I note all install is done using root. But new changes done by simple cms seem to use user/group: www-data.

I dont know how to check what it thinks is wrong - any advice much appreciated.

Many thanks

S

What renaming did you do for .htaccess?
renaming is typically not necessary

chmod is also not "required", but is sometimes necessary on some hosts, depending on owners etc.

are you not seeing pages on the front end, or the back end?

Hi - no new pages are presented on front end - admin side is fine. I had to rename the temp.htaccess myself since it alerted during install that it was unable to itself.

Have a look here: http://178.62.68.18/ and the sub page on the menu fails to be found.

thanks for response!

your rewrites are not working

Ah let me check the .htaccess then..

It says currently:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on

# Usually RewriteBase is just '/', but
# replace it with your subdirectory path
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule /?([A-Za-z0-9_-]+)/?$ index.php?id=$1 [QSA,L]
</IfModule>

and this is the /var/www/html/.htaccess file ..

Should I change this?


RE: Unable to view any new pages - shaunybee - 2015-02-10

it doesnt appear to notice any changes to this htaccess file... any suggestions on what it should say in this redirect section? I have not installed in a sub-directory fyi. thanks in advance


RE: Unable to view any new pages - shawn_a - 2015-02-10

perhaps your apache is not setup to allow per directory htaccess


RE: Unable to view any new pages - shaunybee - 2015-02-10

OK fixed it! It was the ubuntu apache2 install - it had deny on overrides for the www location. I set it to allow ALL and it is now fine!

thanks for the help.
I had issues because I didnt know in ubuntu that the conf file is called apache2.conf and not httpd.conf like I am used to ...

yeah how annoying is that, i had the same issue once, took me forever to figure out.
