Dbd::sqlite Not Found

[ianrd]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to install MT in subdomains of my site. I successfully installed it in the main site area, but I'm having problems with the subdomains. When I run mt-check.cgi it tells me that everything is okay except that my server doesn't have DBD::SQLite and Crypt::DSA installed.

 

Obviously these are somewhere, but I guess I have to configure some file to give a specific route to these files, so it can work.

 

Can someone help?

 

Can anyone run me through the necessary changes I have to make to make sure that a subdomain installation works?

 

Thanks!

That thread is very useful; as you'll see, I posted a separate problem there as I was dealing with the same kinds of problems others had there. But no one really deals with - or raised - this specific problem I have.

 

i don't know if I'm doing this right. Really what I'd like to have is three weblogs hosted on subdomains of my site: e.g., http://v1.powerfoundation.org/mt, http://v2.powerfoundation.org/mt, http://v3.powerfoundation.org/mt. Does this mean I should have three installations running across the respective subdomain areas? Or can I have ONE MT installation on my whole site but have the actual subdomains be the addresses of 3 blogs??

 

If the latter, that would be best, but I don't know how to do that!

 

3 separate installations would seem easier (given that "http://v1.powerfoundation.org/mt" must go to an actual mt folder in that subdomain).

 

Can anyone help?

 

Again, when I try MT seems unable to find at least one critical file: DBD::SQLite

You only need to install MT once. You can publish to 3 separate folder which you should create ahead of time as subdomains.

 

Go into cPanel and create your subdomains first. Then when creating the new blogs the path would be /home/cpanelname/public_html/subdomain for the blog and /home/cpanelname/public_html/subdomain/archives for the archive folder. You do this for each blog you create.

 

The path to access your blogs will be http://subdomain.yourdomain.ext and for the archives path to access it will be http://subdomain.yourdomain.ext/archives

Sorry about that, guess I should have read it a little better.

I don't use MT so I'm not sure but I know you that you don't need DBD::SQLite because TCH servers don't use SQLite.

[TCH-Rick]

Whether you can publish to the subdomains with one installation really depends on which version of MT you are installing if I understand the changes in their licensing. With older versions you could easily install the software in one place and then just specify the folders to put the files. That is more restrictive with the new versions.

 

Dick is right in that DBD::SQLite is not needed unless SQLite is used on the server. The error message is normal. There are four storage modules that MT can use and only one of them is necessary.

The restrictions are honor-based, not code based. You can point the publishing wherever you want, and if all weblogs are used for the same "weblog" (as just a different section, say) then it is within the licensing.

Thanks so much, guys! Templates next!
