I recently got XOOPS working an IIS/Mysql setup and am now trying to transfer it to a Suse 9.1 box with Apache2/Mysql.

I copied the database and website to the linux box but I can't get it to work.

I switched the IIS website to point to the linux database and it appeared to work correctly once I changed permissions for the user I had setup. When I went to login, it returned me to the main index.php page and said I wasn't logged in.

When trying to run from my full linux box (Apache2/Mysql) it won't even display the index.php page or any of the other pages. I changed the URL and location of the files in the mainfile.php but nothing is working.

For now I'm resorting to using the IIS/Mysql until I can get the Suse 9.1 install running.

Any ideas what might fix this situation?

jmikow:

Remember that physical paths in a Windows machine or a Linux machine are expressed in different ways. You have to make sure any path in mainfile.php is expressed using UNIX directories logic.

Cheers.

hsalazar,

I understand that to the best I can. In the mainfile.php on IIS the path is 'D:\inetpub\wwwroot\sitename'. In the mainfile.php on the linux box it is '/srv/www/htdocs/sitename' which is underneath the default directory for Apache2.

any ideas?
