Can't connect to community

Permalink
A client had an installation of c5 at his site, but the permissions were messed up, etc. and there was no real content. He had connected the site to the community, though and purchased an add-on.

I just did a fresh install to a different directory at the server which worked fine, (except the host still has safe mode on).

I tried to connect to the community using the login the client gave me, but got a warning to check that curl and other required libraries are installed. Now if I click the button, I get a message that I'm already connected... Please see attached images.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks, ThemeGuru -- I can check with them, but phpinfo() is saying that the curl library is enabled (see attached image).

(btw - I made the original post here, I was accidentally logged on as my client)

I'm getting some other errors that may be tied to this. When I go to the scrapbook in the dashboard, I get this error:

open_basedir restriction in effect.
File /ccm.filemanager.css is not within the allowed paths.

/home/stopwebpirates/www/c5/concrete/helpers/html.php

I found this thread:
http://www.concrete5.org/community/forums/installation/new-installa...
I'll try working with the host to turn off open_basedir.

The host says that open_basedir is standard procedure to restrict it to its /home/websitefolder.

From the error, it does seem possible that the DIR_REL might not be getting tacked on correctly in the code around this: /ccm.filemanager.css

In site.php, I have:
define('BASE_URL', 'http://www.stopwebpirates.com');
define('DIR_REL', '/c5');

Has anyone else had trouble like this installing to a directory?

I'm also getting the same error (on line 42 of concrete/helpers/html.php) when I go to 'File Manager' > 'Sets'

html.php, line 42, is checking the existence of a file like this

$v = View::getInstance();
// checking the theme directory for it. It's just in the root.
if (file_exists($v->getThemeDirectory() . '/' . $file)) { do stuff...}


I tried this: 
Log::addEntry($v->getThemeDirectory())

which seemed to give reasonable results:
/home/stopwebpirates/www/c5/concrete/config/../themes/core


I wonder if open_basedir breaks paths with relative sub-paths like that.

OR, could it be a bug with file_exists() ??? It says here that it can give trouble with relative paths...

http://php.net/manual/en/function.file-exists.php...

btw this server is running PHP 5.1.6

I think it's a bug (I just posted it as such). Please see here:

I bought a theme (Natural-Concrete) and I can't succeed to install it.
It's on my project page, there is a connection to the community but it is not shown in the "installed and avaiable" menu.
Is ther a way to get the theme as *tar.gz so I can install it manual?

Regards,

Marc

To manually install a theme already associated to a project: From your project page, select "Release from project" so that it is available to download from your licences page. Find you license page at Transactions - licences. Find your theme from that list and select "Download Archive". Unzip and upload the contents to your sites "Packages" folder. It will now show in your "Add Functionality" area of the site dashboard to be loaded. Activate the theme from the Pages and Themes dashboard area. Lastly, reassign the license on your project page (just to be tidy ;-) )
