Error on moving Flarum

neoneosa

Hey everyone. I was trying to move Flarum to another directory, but i get this in my Apache error file and an empty page on browsing the forum.

[Thu Mar 16 20:40:04.305556 2017] [:error] [pid 27191] [client 178.193.200.40:10751] PHP Warning: include(/host/darkgamerscommunity$
[Thu Mar 16 20:40:04.305581 2017] [:error] [pid 27191] [client 178.193.200.40:10751] PHP Warning: include(): Failed opening '/host/$

How could i fix it?

luceos

neoneosa seems you modified something incorrectly.

neoneosa

But what could that something be?

Did you check your config file for path issues?

neoneosa

There is no path in my config. Only a domain and the MySQL details

neoneosa You can use this as a reference to fill out the missing values in your config.php:

<?php return array (

Does your mysite path match your domain name?

What does your sites-enabled or apache configuration look like?

Ralkage

If you changed paths, be sure to change that in the url portion of your config.php

Example:

Before:

'url' => 'http://test.com',

After:

'url' => 'http://test.com/forums',

No trailing slashes!

If you're still having issues, you might want to disable any 3rd party extensions before you move your forum to a new directory. If all is lost, you'll need to reinstall your forum.

I think if all he/she is doing is moving the folder.
It might be better to just create a new flarum forum and just use his previous flarum dB name and credentials?

Wouldn't it then pull in all the user data and all that's left is to install the extensions or copy the old composer.json?

neoneosa

I think there are other files... Idk

I inspected my config, it says this:

<?php return array (
'debug' => false,
'database' =>
array (
'driver' => 'mysql',
'host' => 'localhost',
'database' => 'flarum',
'username' => 'flarum',
'password' => 'i_wont_tell_you_my_password',
'charset' => 'utf8mb4',
'collation' => 'utf8mb4_unicode_ci',
'prefix' => 'f_',
'strict' => false,
),
'url' => 'https://discussions.darkgamerscommunity.com',
'paths' =>
array (
'api' => 'api',
'admin' => 'admin',
),
);

I see your problem already, if the last line wasn't intentional, remove the "<" from it and you should be fine. Flarum is looking through your config for the host line but can't find it cause your config file is generating an PHP because of that last line,

Your config should be like this:

<?php return array (
'debug' => false,
'database' =>
array (
'driver' => 'mysql',
'host' => 'localhost',
'database' => 'flarum',
'username' => 'flarum',
'password' => 'i_wont_tell_you_my_password',
'charset' => 'utf8mb4',
'collation' => 'utf8mb4_unicode_ci',
'prefix' => 'f_',
'strict' => false,
),
'url' => 'https://discussions.darkgamerscommunity.com',
'paths' =>
array (
'api' => 'api',
'admin' => 'admin',
),
);

Oops.. the > isnt actually in the code, i just tried to make the code indented in my post and forgot to remove it.
