Can't install theme manually - searches templates in a wrong folder.
Permalink
Hi all!
We have a "Concrete5 5.7.2.1-0 (Ubuntu 14.04)" image from Bitnami installed to a Microsoft Azure server.https://vmdepot.msopentech.com/Vhd/Show?vhdId=50056&version=5117...
The core themes seem to work, the themes installed directly from the market place seem to work, but no matter what we've done, we haven't been able to install the themes manually.
We've copied the theme folder to "./application/themes" folder and they appear in Themes Dashboard correctly as "Themes Available to Install". Icon and description are showing just nicely.
But when clicking install, it says: "There are no templates in this file.". The icon is the white default image (spacer.gif).
I did some debugging (printed out pThemeDirectory) and it seems that the theme files are searched from "./concrete/themes/" (where the core themes are) instead of the correct folder "./application/themes/".
We can activate the theme, but it appears as blank pages - not surprisingly.
Anyone have any ideas why the theme attribute pThemeDirectory goes wrong when installing a custom theme?
We've tried the same installation method with another server (regular Linux web hotel) and another Concrete5 5.7.2.1 (installed separately, not using an image) and the theme installs just fine. So the theme itself shouldn't be the problem. It seems something wrong with the Concrete5 installation or maybe even server configuration.
But what can it be?
We're really confused here. Truly grateful of any help!
Thanks in advance.
