Topic: php-Nuke

[Rick Philbrick]

Hello all,

I've been trying to get Php-Nuke to run on a new build of e-smith4 , I have a development network to run this on.

As far as I can tell, after 2 trys, i have correctly installed all necessary modules and set up the db access.
The login page titled admin.php3 does come up but 6 of the 9 buttons under Main Menu all result in Segmentation Faults to the httpd daemon. The following 3 buttons work :
Weblinks ------ Can submitt new links to the nuke db
Submitt News --- Only displays the form, submit is broken
Sections ------ Displays any articles i place in the db

I found that other users are having the same segfault issue, from reading the search results.

There has to be a few success stories out there.

I think the only person who has had success if Dan. I tried for hours to make it work, but I couldn't. I even tried hacking the code full of debug statements. The only conclusion I could draw was that it wasn't going to work for me!!!

As an alternative, I use Geeklog, which works beautifully, although a new major release is imminent. Check out my site at http://www.stodge.net, but ignore the fact I dont have a logo yet!!!

Question?   one of the files that you need from Dan's site is in the Optional category.

so make sure you have  mod_php-mysql-4.0.1pl2-3.i386.rpm installed and that you do not have mod_php-pgsql-4.0.1pl2-3.i386.rpm installed.

I was having the same problems, installed four times, but no go. The I tried php nuke 3.0. It was a slam dunk on the first go around. Must be something buggy about 2.5.

[Rick Philbrick]

I went to the site and there is a link only for 2.5  Where was there a link for PHP-nuke 3.0 ?

Nevermind,

I just went to Freshmeat and it was there. It is the same size as 2.5   Wonder why??

I didn't say it was easy to find. I had to look awhile myself and only knew it existed from reading another board. Is it up and running?

[Tim Litwiller]

version 3 was here for 2 days http://linuxpreview.net/php-nuke.php3 but it is now back to version 2.5 which I checked and it has the 2 bug fixes that were called version 3.
I am not sure what is going on but it is a nice package with potential to be a great package.

Hi Garret,

I found it late last night and did a build this morning and played w/it good part of the day.  Its sitting on a develpmnt box but i am thinking it will get a promotion soon. Like you, 3.0 worked as advertised on the first try.

Sincerely thankful in Seattle,

RIck

[Garret]

Glad to here it:)

[Garret]

Okay,

Now I feel retarded.

How do I change the main theme?

[jay]

Not sure if this is what you're after, but from your main directory where the php-nuke is located:

cd /themes/Default/

Then edit the index.php3, header.php3 and whatever else you need to change.

At e-smith, we changed the user account stuff to prevent other themes aside from the default from being used and therefore only had to edit this directory as opposed to all 8 or 9 of them.

Thanks Jay, that's what I was looking for I guess. I thought that maybe there was a setting in the script somewhere or even an option on the admin page that lets you change the default theme for the entire site. On the "fly" so to speak. The same that the user settings do, only from the entire site.

The explicit instructions are in the INSTALL file.

The explicit instructions are in the INSTALL file for changing the default themes.

The user can be frozen into the default only them by adding the following line into
the themes/list.php3 file
                   $themelist = "Default ";
just before the
                   closedir($handle);
statement.
