Dear all,
I have downkloaded and installed the ezPublish3.2-1. It is installed properly and it is giving 2 URLs for accessing the site and administratioon. while accessing it is giving ERROR called 'Object Not Found'.

http://192.168.1.179/ezpublish/ezpublish-3.2-1/index.php/corporate

http://192.168.1.179/ezpublish/ezpublish-3.2-1/index.php/corporate_admin

The above are the two URLs I got after installation. I have created the VirtualHost entry as said in the INSTALL document but still not working. Please suggest me where I have gone wrong.

Thanks & Regards
Praveen

Hm.
Looks like you have some problem with your data.
Did the setup work fine when it came to selecting a database, selecting a package and inserting the data?
Which OS are your running? Are you sure, that your MySQL server task is running?

Actually I have the same problem. I installed the script using default settings, but after installation it just gives me 404 error, document not found. Documentation stated that the url to Admin-panel would be something like "www.mydomain.com/index.php/plain_admin". This puzzles me, because there isn't anything under this kind of URL. What have I done wrong?

I also have this problem.

I installed it into a directory named "cms".

And I selected the "plain" template.

No error throughout the installation process.

However,

"www.mydomain.com/cms/index.php/plain"

and

"www.mydomain.com/cms/index.php/plain_admin"

shows a 404 page.

Please advise.

Well, this is certainly disheartening. I am experiencing the same problem with 3.2-3, and no solution is in sight? I am running Red Hat 9, standard install. I installed php-mysql rpm when setup complained about lack of mysql support, then everything was successful. I made sure all files are owned by user apache, which is what httpd runs under. The mysql db is getting populated, as well. I tried four different installs, until I was changing only the bare minimum from the defaults, and still nothing.

I have the same problem where the links given to me after setup finishes are "not found." I found out that if I go to sitename.com/installdir/index.php, I do get a working "Root folder" page, but all the links from this page are dead, too. Anyone having any luck yet?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Philip

Is the file settings/overridi/site.ini.append.php created ?
Do you have the installation on a public accessible server ?

Thanks for your quick response!

Yes, settings/override/site.ini.append.php was created. I even modified it to set CheckValidity=true so I could easily reinstall it.

The site is publicly accessible:

http://crackteam.org/hq/index.php

That's the one page you can see, and verify the links don't work. The two standard links that setup gives you for plain and plain_admin did not work at all.

Thanks again...

Looks like You are on an Apache 2 server.

This is how my vhost setup looks like:
<VirtualHost 192.168.1.250>

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule !\.(gif|jpe?g|png|css|js|html)$ /var/www/ez/index.php

DirectoryIndex index.php

ServerAdmin me@example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/ez/
ServerName ez.example.com
ServerAlias ezadmin.example.com
</VirtualHost>

I had to get rid of all the <FilesMatch ".">
directives.

Hi Philip

It looks like you need to alter your apache settings a bit. Please check the link below for description. Remember to move the .htaccess_root to .htaccess.

I have done the installation, I checked the forum to get help with installation, and got it all out. The database was created with the right tables. I had a problem with logging in as admin, but checked the forum again, and solved that problem too thanks to you who have posted.
But now I have two problems:
1) when I get in as admin I get an errormessage about object not found. For some pages I can overcome this by fixing a digit in the URL (just gessing and trying), but it is obvious that there is a problem with pointing to the wrong address. And since many of us have this problem I guess this is a bug.
Problem 2: where do I find the articles and pages I create? I find nothing nowhere.
Question: Is there an experienced EZ-developer out there, a person that can give me a hand so I get the files and folders right? I would prefer if you were a person in Oslo, or at least in Norway, so we could communicate via phone and solve the problems through direct support from you.
I have seen here in the forum something about fixing something on the Apache-server. That is not possible for me, I rent a webhotel.
Can you help me?

I experienced very similar problems with another CMS I ran a trial on a couple of weeks ago, and found that there were two possible reasons for the 404 errors. Number one is that for some reason Apache 2 doesn't like commands being called in the way that they are (ie: http://www.ezpublish.com/index.php/variable/value) where the traditional method has always been http://www.ezpublish.com/index.php?variable=value. You will also experience many of the same problems if PHP is being run as CGI on your server. I hate to say this, but if either of these are the root cause of the problem, there's not much you can do in my experience other than hack every single output buffer in the source code!

It seems to be working so far, thanks for everyone's help. I tried a few things, but apparently I just had to add:

<Files ~ "\.php$">
AcceptPathInfo On
</Files>

to /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf. For some reason, it didn't work in the .htaccess file provided.

I added this right after the <Files> entry for .htaccess files. If anyone thinks this will cause any problems down the road, please let me know.

Thanks again.

i have download and installed ezpublish-3[2].3-4.zip.I installed it on my local machine. After installing ezpublish had showed two links i.e user site<b>(http://localhost/ezpublish/index.php/corporate)</b> and admin site <b>(http://localhost/ezpublish/index.php/corporate_admin)</b>. But When i clicked to these url it shows me <b>"page cannot be displayed"</b>.Did i missed something to install or should i have not make changes in some configure file.What should i do to make these links runnable.
I am using
1)<b>Apache 2.0</b> (installed on c:\apache\)
2)<b>Php4.3.5</b> (Installed on c:\php\)
3)<b>mysql 4.0.18</b> (Installed on c:\mysql\)

Thanks in advance

This ezPublish is not working properly if we use .htaccess.
instead keep the below lines in the httpd.conf file and restart the httpd (Apache) server

<Files ~ "\.php$">
AcceptPathInfo On
</Files>

Now it should work. It worked for me.

I added the following three lines in httpd.conf.
<Files ~ "\.php$">
AcceptPathInfo On
</Files>
But Still it is not working.Please specify the place where to put the above three line in httpd.conf.There are also the following entry in my httpd.conf file
<Files *.html>
SetHandler type-map
AcceptPathInfo On
</Files>

<Files ~ "^\.ht">
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
AcceptPathInfo On
</Files>
should i remove these entry .Please tell me the solution.

Thanks
