SiteURL in SiteSettings?

Wednesday 09 June 2004 5:48:10 am

Hi There!

I'm still having troubles getting my dummy site up and running as described in the thread:

http://www.ez.no/community/forum/developer/making_a_dummy

After a hundreth look or something at my site.ini.append files for "user" and "admin" I noticed that the SitURL in SiteSettings was different in those two files.

in the "user" file it was "index.php"

while in the "admin" file it was "lms/index.php"

How does the SiteURL setting work? From which directory does it look for the values in this setting?

best regards

Hi Eirik (og "takk i like måte" :-)

The URL I'm trying to use is ekurs.atlantia.no, but that only gives me a blank page. It should have been the same as www.kompetanseportalen.no.

Here's my SiteSettings and my SiteAccessSettings from site.ini.append.php in ekurs/settings/override:

[SiteSettings]
DefaultAccess=kompetanseportalen
SiteList[]=plain
SiteList[]=kompetanseportalen

[SiteAccessSettings]
CheckValidity=false
MatchOrder=host
HostMatchType=map
HostMatchMapItems[]=ekurs.atlantia.no;kompetanseportalen
HostMatchMapItems[]=admin.atlantia.no;kompetanseportalen_admin
AvailableSiteAccessList[]=kompetanseportalen
AvailableSiteAccessList[]=kompetanseportalen_admin

when I use admin.atlantia.no everything works fine. I get the admin interface with all my expected objects. It's the ekurs.atlantia.no element that is giving me trouble.

I have now tried to set the SiteURL in /ekurs/settings/siteaccess/kompetanseportalen/site.ini.append to
"http://ekurs.atlantia.no" to no avail. Nor did it help/change anything to set the SiteURL in /ekurs/settings/siteaccess/kompetanseportalen_admin/site.ini.append to "http://admin.atlantia.no"

So if anyone has any idea why this doesn't work, please help. And to repeat my Original Question. What does the SiteURL setting actually <b>do</b>?

PS! For a full understanding, please read the thread mentioned in the first message DS!

Hi Eirik and thanks.

Good Idea to use both host and uri to check if that fails as well, will try that.

Hmm.. and what did I mean by "A full understanding".... tough one that. :-)

I probably thought a bit too much of myself implying that my post in that thread was clarifying. Reading it again it struck me that I've should have used "for more confusion please read the thread...." ;-)

Seriously, what I meant was that I've tried at my best ability to explain my process in creating a dummy site in an earlier thread, and that I am too lazy to explain it again in another thread, that is, <b>this</b> thread.

best regards
