So no other solution to this?
Am i going to have to rebuild the site?

Unfortunately no shell access

Oh yes, it was all working before, then suddenly for some reason stopped. the thing is this has happened on different versions of the website and on different servers. Same problem, go to Manage...

I get:

Composer was working the other day, but now when i click on Manage Packages in the BE, all i get is a blank page.
Anybody any idea as to why this may be and what i need to do to fix it?

HI, I me having a problem with the player returning a 200 stream not found error.
I have set my Download files in Contao Settings to include .flv files.
It did actually work on localhost at one...

Well actually, now i have Contao installed (even though under 777 permissions), I am going to see if this was just required to install the system.
I am actually going to change all permissions back...

Actually, i think they are just not set up to host CMS systems. As my long time hosted in the UK said, they are either very secure and useless, or very useful but completely insecure ;)

So next...

Ill check it. Thanks.
Provider never mentioned anything about doing it this way.
provider will not offer FASTCGI for whatever reason.
I can't even get in via the Safe Hack Mode........so not sure....

Hi ciaobella,

I have from contao check:

Safe Mode Hack

php.ini settings

The PHP safe_mode is not enabled.

Ok so now my host has allowed me permissions to modify/change the php settings/type.

BUT, i cannot run PHP as FASTCGI, only Apache module, or CGI Application.

I have asked my host if its...

Still waiting on my host to allow PHP permissions to create folders.
This appears to be the problem with getting past the Safe Hack Mode.
I also have Composer, and this is not compatible with Safe...

Yea, i installed into a subfolder in the end.

I am now able to access the install tool.

However…….lol, in germany i have learnt there is always a however or a but……,

after the Install tool...

So i have created a subdomain.
I then have to add an alias.
Meaning i have:
contao3.subdomain.com as the subdomain
contao3.mydomain.com as the alias.

Now, i need to have the DNS record added...

My host said

first and only fail is to use
http://contao3.subdomain.com, because this domain is not
routed to the right server.
Use your own domain (e.g. contao3.mydomain.com) instead and...

I tried this, but now i get 'Failed to open page', so its still not finding the install.php for some reason.


When i try to call a preview from within the Plesk control panel i get 'Error...

Tried this without success, anyone any ideas would be very much appreciated:

Created new subdomain and set root folder as httpdocs/subdomain.com/contao3/contao, uploaded folder named 'contao3'...

Cheers ciaobella,

i figured this out about 3 seconds after id posted. :/ But i didn't do anything to the htaccess file. Just figured out i was calling the wrong directory to run the install tool...

[QUOTE=xchs;89191]By running the Contao Install Tool the Website Path is set automatically. There is no input field for this.

I set the root to the subfolder, but when i try to access the contao...

I'm just about to go through this myself and so i understand that making sure you've prepared everything before hand is going to be extremely important.

Now, I will preform the update manually. My...

Thanks for the headsup Andreas.

i understand that CSS Reset is CSS, but what i was trying to say was that it had nothing to do with the CSS that i had implemented. The difference is subtle i know;) but further to this, as i was...

I meant it had nothing to do with the CSS i had in place. I was looking for a mistake in my CSS, but there wasn't any. This is what was frustrating me. Im being told to post a live site so that...

Ok, thanks, I will.

I meant contao2go is not available for Mac/Linux yet;)

The c2gadmin extension is not compatible for Contao 3.2, so doesn't that make c2g manager redundant for me?

I had CSS reset checked. :/

but not available for Mac yet.

aha, i figured it out.

Nothing to do with the CSS in the end.

Would you like to know what caused this????

what should list-style: be set to then?

the - or none?

no caching, already purged the files.

Look, i can't show you the site im working on, but essentially its the same as:
...

Yup, did all that, it didn't seem to work.
I updated it manually in the end.

Hi,

I have li element trying to call a custom graphic which i am calling with the element class:
.mod_article li,
.ce_accordion li {
line-height:1.5em;
...

how do i know when that contao2srcto3.php script has finished.
I get the Retrieving a list of tables to convert..., but nothing else happens.

I don't think so, but back up your DB in any case.

Im getting error messages pertaining to the fact that some pages are still using the old contao 2 src format.

I found this script: https://gist.github.com/chani/7152187. It also mentions about...

OK, i did try and google it before your google suggestion.

LTS, ahhh ok Long Term Service....ok. 3.2 is what you are saying. I guess extensions will be updated to work in that version at the very...

Thanks for the pointer to the IRC channel.

What about installing one version to ~user/Sites and the other into MAMP/htdocs.........would that be ok? I mean, thats what I've done. Works ok.

Whats the LTS version, where do i find it?
Whats conta2go, where do i find that?

Cheers for the advice.

Yes.

It could well create some issues, I couldn't say for sure. You will just have to try it out and see.

--- Yea I was getting that impression. I tend to use this place as a way to order my thoughts;) But thanks for answering, even if not answering the question.

- Well, normally i would start a new...

If its from another contao based website, you need to export the template by using the BackupDB extension. Then you can import the generated .cto file with the contao install tool.

Run the install tool again. You can choose templates from there.

However i think you're talking about external templates from other websites, or?

Ok, i have the pages centred. I had to uncheck 'Static Layout' in Page Layouts --> Edit layouts, then check it again.
I get the impression there might be quiet a lot of this...

So, I had contao 3.2 installed, but due to trying to keep the extensions (assets are they called in 3?) i removed 3.2 and installed version 3.0.6 instead.
that went fine until i started to import...

Gets stranger.

So after a bunch of errors, i close the browser, reopen, and direct to the contao/index.php and now i get no errors, although it is running in maintenance mode and internal cache...

Ok, so, talking to myself again, ;) I managed to get the install tool to start running for version 3 on localhost. Im running this under MAMP at the moment, so i can distinguish between the two...

Ah wait, the same permission issue solved this.


BUT, the question still stands really for me:

Should i install two different versions of contao in essentially the same folder on localhost,...

Hi,

I do not know if what I am doing is advised.
I have Contao 2.11.11 installed on localhost and I want to start the process of migrating to Contao v3.x.

So (on mac) i have 2.11 installed in...

Yes, I realised all this after the fact:)
I was trying to import the site data and structure, so i needed to so create an SQL dump and not a template.

I initially went about it all in not a very...

Hi,

Starting to prepare to migrate from version 2.11.11 to version 3.x and starting to look at some things i need to pay attention to.
So i have some extensions of course, and a couple of them...

Ok, well thats what i tried, and this worked for me now.

You know, life is very strange when i have these conversations with myself ;)

Or is this a case of me not having an empty database before importing the DBBackup created sql file?

From what im reading in the German forums, this may be the case, if my German is understanding...

It has occurred to me that i could just copy the whole of the live website into my localhost.

Then i guess run the install tool again.

Is that an option?

Hi......again....:)

So all went well.

Now I am trying to backup the live site to my localhost.

So i tried using the DBBackup extension. Exported the sql file with templates as well. imported...

Ah ok, i figured this out eventually.

Changed the permissions in Terminal by:

sudo chmod -R a+w ~/Sites
sudo chown -R _www ~/Sites

Hi.
So I am trying to install contao version 2.11.11 on localhost so i can test and fix current version offline and test for eventual migration to v3 etc.

Thanks very much for the help, it may end up being the case that i need your assistance, so your time is greatly appreciated in helping out.

Thanks for the helping me to break this down. I guess i will find the install tool on the server somewhere?
Many thanks again.

Ahhh. So performing this will not alter anything on the website itself? Im not going to lose content. its purely to correct the DB connection to/for the localconfig.php file?

----- ok thats good to know.


------ also to reinstall 2.11.11? I know that i should update to possibly the latest version, and now may be a good time to do this. I just want to know if its...
