after installation cmsimple 4.0.3

[cmb]

Hi Rob, hi Gert,

No, the cookie path should be "/", if you login to haptonomiedommelen.nl,

Yes, of course you're right.

I just wanted to do some debugging by echoing the relevant $_SERVER variable from the template. But after saving I can't log in to the site anymore (via the direct URL, not the redirected):

Language config file ./cmsimple/languages/enconfig.php missing

@Rob: could you please fix the template. I've inserted one line directly above </body> at the end of the template. Please delete this line via FTP, or upload the template(s) again.

I've just seen your latest post. Perhaps we were working in parallel. If everything works now, of course you don't have to upload the template again.

@Gert: I guess the following is happening. When the installation is browsed via http://www.haptonomiedommelen.nl/, REQUEST_URI is "/", but SCRIPT_NAME is something like ".../haptonomiedommelen/index.php". The latter causes CMSimple 4 (and probably CMSimple_XH on IIS) to set CMSIMPLE_ROOT wrongly. Regarding those redirects the use of SCRIPT_NAME should be avoided at all for setting CMSIMPLE_ROOT.

but SCRIPT_NAME is something like ".../haptonomiedommelen/index.php".

And that's wrong, SCRIPT_NAME should be "/index.php", if you call the domain directly. So it is on my and the most servers, if the domain is moved permanently to a folder,

Hi Rob,

could you give me the password (PM) for some further tests? (1-2 hours)

Hi Gert, hi Rob,

a file containig the following might suffice to get the relevant information:

Code: Select all

<?php phpinfo(); 

This file should be placed in the installation folder right beside index.php. The file name doesn't matter, but it's better to keep it secret and sent it only via PM.

PM has been send.

Hi Rob,

thanks for allow me to do some tests.

I have found following:

In case of calling the domain "haptonomiedommelen.nl", the server gives a wrong "$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']" ("/haptonomiedommelen/index.php" instead of "/index.php").

So "CMSIMPLE_ROOT" also is wrong, because it is based on "$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']".

Using "$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']" for CMSIMPLE_ROOT is not a good idea, because "$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']" includes the QUERY_STRING.

You should ask your provider, why "$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']" is "/haptonomiedommelen/index.php" in case of calling the domain "haptonomiedommelen.nl", it should be "/index.php",

PS: A wrong CMSIMPLE_ROOT also can make problems with some plugins using CMSIMPLE_ROOT

Hi Gert,

what is the value of $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']? I assume it identical to $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'], but I'm not sure.

Using "$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']" for CMSIMPLE_ROOT is not a good idea, because "$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']" includes the QUERY_STRING.

Yes. But the QUERY_STRING can be removed. That's done to determine $sn since at least CMSimple 2:

Code: Select all

$sn = preg_replace('/([^\?]*)\?.*/', '\1', sv(($iis ? 'SCRIPT_NAME' : 'REQUEST_URI'))); 

The greater problem is, that REQUEST_URI isn't available on IIS (at least on unpatched older versions); hence the fallback to SCRIPT_NAME in the code.

I've send a e-mail to my provider.

The same problem ("/haptonomiedommelen/index.php" instead of "/index.php"),

Hi Gert,

thanks for the info. So it's probably best to wait for the reply of Rob's hosting provider.
