thejerm Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Before I go out and purchase a dedicated server for moodle I thought I would run a test install on my domain here... However it does not seem to be working. I did everything like it said in the install.php and then said to download the config.php and place it in the home moodle directory. Now it says I will be transferred to http://****/moodle/admin/index.php, which i am, but it is a blank page. in the Installation FAQ for Moodle it says Check the dirroot variable in config.php. You must use complete, absolute pathnames, eg: $CFG->dirroot = "d:\inetpub\sites\www.yoursite.com\web\moodle"; This doesn't seem to work either. Any help would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Bruce Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 That config sure looks like a DOS configuration to me. The servers here are Linux operating systems. So you config line should look more like "/home/your-cpanel-name/public_html/web/moodle" Then again I could be way off here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what I would assume also, so I figured it should/would be "/home/your-cpanel-name/public_html/web/moodle" or '/home/your-cpanel-name/public_html/web/moodle' (the latter being what the install.php file output).

stevevan Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Just tossing out an idea here (even tho' it may seem simple): Have you tried 'www.yoursite.com/web/moodle' in the config.php file? (Assuming the files were installed in your /public_html/web/moodle directory.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davehickey Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 (edited) Hi thejerm, Just stumbled across your post and wasn't sure if you worked it out... My config.php file for Moodle has the following lines in it: $CFG->wwwroot = 'http://www.somedomain.com/moodle'; $CFG->dirroot = '/home/somedoma/public_html/moodle'; Make sure that the 'somedoma' bit on the dirroot line is your TCH account name - it may only be the first 8 letters of your domain name. Cheers, Dave (Edit: It didn't like displaying my first dummy domain!) Edited July 11, 2006 by davehickey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
