Moving existing website

Post by ErikvdB »

Dear all,

I have succesfully used phpwcms for a number of months, until my problems with my provider forced me to move from the old (linux) server to a new (windows) server a little while ago. As I had made some adjustments to the 1.26, I decided to reïnstall the 1.26 and then use the old files to make sure that I keep my adjustments. So far so good and I've got it working except for 2 problems:

1. When creating a new article, I am asked to login again. the article has been created then.
2. File-upload in the FCK-editor does not work anymore.

I do realise that some issues have been fixed in a later release, but I really prefer not to update as migrating the adjustments will take time.

Is the first issue a known issue and is there a known solution? (Could not find it at the forum).

Is there a list of changes to FCKEditor in 1.3x which have enabled the FCKEditor for windows servers?

Thanks for your advise!

Kind regards,
Erik

Wheeei, ik zou bijna zeggen, andere provider nemen. Het werkt gewoon beter(lees:makkelijker) op linux.

Many thanks for your great support, 'take a different provider, that works better' is exactly the answer I was looking for!

:roll:

Anyways, as you may understand, this is not an option. But I managed to solve both problems (or actually foundd a work-around)

- The $_session check added for phpwcms in the FCK-editor configuration blocked the filemanager from working. Commenting this out solves the problem. (Yes, don't tell me that it decreases security, that's the same as telling pindakaas!)
- The 'header('Location......) line (167) in article.editcontent.inc.php (include/inc_lib) caused the loose of session information. By adding a sleep(2) just in front of this line, the problem seems 'solved'. I know it is a work-around, not a real solution, but it seems to work for me!

Kind regards,
Erik
