Test install linked to domain, now broken[Solved] | Forum

Hi,


So I had my test install running properly on my server under /var/www/oxwall. The site is ready and working as it should.


I registered a domain, and replaced OW_URL_HOME in /ow_includes/config.php with the correct domain name. For good measure, I also switched on DEV mode to clear caches.


My Apache is pointing at the correct DocumentRoot (unchanged, which is still /var/www/oxwall), Now, when I try to access my site under its domain, it loads properly, but only the first page. Whatever I click afterwards lands me at a server error message saying:


'The requested URL /oxwall/admin/users' was not found on this server.'


Also, it spits out a *ton* of chmod(): Operation not permitted errors on top op de page.


Any idea what that could be? To me, it looks like it's still referring to the subdirectory /oxwall, which it shouldn't anymore. What did I miss?

Nevermind, fixed it. Of course it was my fault. ;) I forgot to put the right Directives into Apache. For the record, these here work for me, just use your own details:


DocumentRoot /<path to>/oxwall/ServerName <www.somethingsomethingsomethingdarkside.com>;

ServerAlias <somethingsomethingsomethingdarkside.com>

ServerAdmin <admin@somethingsomethingsomethingdarkside.com>

<Directory /<path to>/oxwall/>

Options FollowSymLinksAllowOverride AllOrder

allow,deny

allow from all

</Directory>

ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log

LogLevel warn

CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined
