Hi,

I've set up a site and it runs well. However, I have been asked to change the XOOPS Virtual Path (URL) for athestic reasons:

Currently, we have:

http://mysite.com

Which I want to change to:

http://www.mysite.com

When I change this URL - the site loads without errors but doesn't display anything!

What is the cause of this - I notice the XOOPS site has the full URL displayed when loading modules etc - so I presume its possible - any ideas what I need to change or do?

I don't understand totally.
In the mainfile.php did you change

define('XOOPS_URL', 'http://yousite.com');

to

define('XOOPS_URL', 'http://www.yousite.com');

and have this problem, or are you asking how to?

Have a look in your main file if these things are correct:

// XOOPS Physical Path
// Physical path to your main XOOPS directory WITHOUT trailing slash
define('XOOPS_ROOT_PATH', '/home/httpd/vhosts/yoursite.com/httpdocs/yourxoop');

// XOOPS Virtual Path (URL)
// Virtual path to your main XOOPS directory WITHOUT trailing slash
define('XOOPS_URL', 'http://www.yoursite.com');

Which version of XOOPS do you have? Their was a similar problem in 2.06, but this was resolved in 2.07

See this topic

http://xoops-tips.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=4

Or this thread:

https://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=23446&forum=7#forumpost102486

If this does not help and the site loads without displaying anything, can you access admin general preferences and switch on phpdebug and post the results?
