I can upload, but get 404 errors elsewhere
« on: October 12, 2009, 08:08:57 AM »
I am having some issues with my PHPMotion install. It is a dedicated server that we own. I can upload videos, but I cannot play them. I get a 404 error when I try. I also get 404 errors when clicking on everything but the Home link. I have checked the forums, but none of the solutions seem to work for me. A couple have mentioned the .htaccess file, but nobody spells out exactly what might be wrong with it.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Try removing the end slash (/) from your setup

Do you mean my base URL should look like this http://video.wws.k12.in.us and not this http://video.wws.k12.in.us/? If so, how do I accomplish that? mod_rewrite?

go to siteadmin then general settings.

Thanks for the quick responses!
There is no trailing slash on any of the fields that state "no trailing /", including the site base URL.
Am I missing something?

im not sure what the problem is the first thing i woud do is double check this.

•The following files MUST be uploaded in Binary mode
?/phpshiled/all files in this folder
?/classes/config.php
?/addons/customprofile/pimp.class.php
?/addons/customprofile/index.php
•The following files must be CHMOD to 755
?/cgi-bin/all files and folder in this folder

I have done all that, but this is how it was accomplished. Since this is my server, I downloaded the PHPmotion script directly onto the server. I copied all files up to the htdocs directory and deleted the files and directories noted above. I then used FTP to upload the pertinent files to the server in the correct manner. All rights for all files and directories appear to be correct.

if you run on a subdomain you have to change a file.
try to read the installwiki

I have read the wiki. I do not run on a subdomain.
