Moving to another folder, main page blank

[ribow]

Hi,

I tried moving my zencart site to a new folder called 'testbed' on the same server. currently it is on the root folder. I've read guide in wiki, and modified the two configure.php files.

I can view and login into admin, but my homepage (index) just show blank page. I tried to use fix cache key but when I navigate to that location on the server with my web browser, I just get a blank white page.

Below are my new confire.php files content (database info deleted):

Any help appreciated

[stevesh]

Are there any error log files in your /cache folder ?

[ribow]

Yes, here is the content:

Why did you stuff "testbed" into these?

  define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', '/testbed/images/'); 
  define('DIR_WS_INCLUDES', '/testbed/includes/');

[ribow]

Right, removed that and changed

 define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://adorablemuslimah.com');
  define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://adorablemuslimah.com');

to

 define('HTTP_SERVER', '');
  define('HTTPS_SERVER', '');

working fine now :) thanks !

[DrByte]

Huh?

Um ... leaving those blank as you quoted would be A PROBLEM.

[ribow]

I have this, finally in /includes/configure.php and its working fine so far. A working mistake perhaps? :)

You can't define HTTP_SERVER to a blank value such as ''.
So, if that's "working" for you, then you've got another file that's defining it to a URL instead. And that other file's settings will be overruling whatever you have in the file you quoted.
So it will be no surprise if you have further problems when using this arrangement.
