Going Live
Permalink
I have built my C5 site in a seperate directory which I access by /c5 after my URL. I am now ready to take the site live. As I understand from reading posts here I have to [1] transfer all the files from my C5 directory to the Root [httpdocs] and [2] modify the config/site.php file.
I have done [1] and got a test result page where everything was OK with the exception of three folders needing a CHMOD change which I have done and then gone back to the page.
Two results occur: if I have my site.php file in place I end up in a fully blank screen and nothing proceeds. If I rename the site.php to xsite.php and try again C5 wants to do what seems to be a New Install.
I think the problem is in the DIR_REL of the site.php which you can see here:
Do I have it correct? If not, how should it be written?
-or- can I continue with what seems a fresh install and will that use the DataBase I have already created?
Thanks in advance for your help
