    Default rokSlideshow will not display!

    Hi,

    I have moved our edugeek joomla 1.5 website this morning onto a different server.

    I exported the database to an sql file, transferred across the files and the imported the sql file into phpmyadmin on the new server.

    When i access the website on the new server the rokSlideshow on the homepage will not display. I have checked that the images are in the /images/stories/slideshow/ folder and the module is enabled but will still not show.

    anyone got any ideas?

    Thanks

    i spotted this error code this morning , does this undefined offset: 2 mean anything to anybody?



    <script type="text/javascript">
    window.RokSlideshowPath = '';
    window.addEvent('load', function(){
    var imgs = [];

    imgs.push({
    file: '2.jpg',
    title: 'Arts Day 2009',
    desc: '<br />
    <b>Notice</b>: Undefined offset: 2 in <b>D:\HostedSites\LocalUser\gaqezweb\modules\mod_r okslideshow\tmpl\default.php</b> on line <b>49</b><br />
    ',
    url: '/index.php?option=com_morfeoshow&task=view&gallery= 4'
    });

    I presume that code was working on the old server?

    Have you set all the correct folder permissions on your new server?

    hi,

    yes code was working perfectly on old server, still is.

    i haven't checked folder permissions to be honest. is this joomla folder permissions in general or just for rokslideshow?

    I'm thinking the cache directory, or the rokslideshow component directory... Not entirely sure without playing untill I break my site!

    Check the joomla website for the folder permissions you need to set.

    Edit: Just checked myself, these are the ones to look at...

    administrator/backups/
    administrator/components/
    administrator/modules/
    administrator/templates/
    cache/
    components/
    images/banners/
    images/stories/
    images/
    language/
    mambots/content/
    mambots/editors/
    mambots/editors-xtd/
    mambots/search/
    mambots/system/
    mambots/
    media/
    modules/
    templates/

    When you moved the site did you edit the config file in the root?, paying attention to the folder paths. Could be your problem is stemming from this.

    Mossj made a great suggestion.

    I expect the items he is thinking of are...

    mosConfig_absolute_path
    mosConfig_cachepath

    You might have to contact the new host to get the full path details though.

    No theres some code... will post it after a quick google...

    okay make a file called path.php with the following code
    Code:
    <?php
    echo getcwd();
    ?>
    
    Upload it to your joomla root and go to the webaddress + path.php
    I.E "http://www.ashlawn.org.uk/path.php"

    Copy that whole text and then go into your config file and look for anything similar looking, above post should help there.

    paste it in but make sure to leave the actual folder it's pointing to above the root...
    I.E the Cache is pointing to something like "/server/something/root/cache" so leave what ever comes after the root in this case cache.
