From brianashe at yahoo.com Wed Feb 2 16:22:31 2005 From: brianashe at yahoo.com (Brian Ashe) Date: Wed, 2 Feb 2005 13:22:31 -0800 (PST) Subject: [geeklog-users] SQL error and OS X Message-ID: <20050202212231.51024.qmail@web40909.mail.yahoo.com> Funny--I myself just installed GL on OS X 10.3 (consumer, with all updates, more info below) today, had this error, checked 'error.log' but it was blank, so I googled* and was brought to this thread, which is also just from today. I've run GL on other boxes (older OS X, IIS/Win) so I have a bit of experience with it**. This workaround http://lists.geeklog.net/pipermail/geeklog-users/2004-February/000810.html made the site come up but I wanted to get it working properly so I kept digging. The installation seemed to go fine--that is, I saw, "Congratulations, you have successfully installed Geeklog" on 'success.php.' Now, when I visited that page again to get that quote, I saw the link to 'check.php.' Oops. Lotsa red on that page. My logs were set to 755 but I guess the web user can't write to them so I chmod'ed them 777 rather than CHOWN them (since it's in a user folder, not /Library/WebServer/Documents.) Same with geeklog.rdf, userphotos/, articles/, and data/. No more red, so I changed the 'hidenewcomments' back to 0 but I'm still getting the SQL error. So it's back to 1 for the time being so I can play with it while I try to figure it out. I'll spend some more time on this later tonight but just thought I'd post what I had so far. (IOW, this is the world's longest 'me too!') I'll compare phpinfo() and other things to another OS X box where GL works and I'll see what I can find. My box: OS X 10.3 ('consumer', not Server) with all updates as of 2/1/2005 PHP from entropy.ch: Entropy-PHP-4.3.10-1.dmg MySQL from MySQL.com: mysql-standard-4.0.23-apple-darwin7.6.0-powerpc.dmg Apache 1.3.33 My GL site is the only reason this user ('newbox') exists. 'public_html' replaced that user's 'Sites' folder and all other files (config.php, logs/, sql/, etc.) are in /Users/newbox. (Yes, I set the paths right in 'config.php'.) My httpd.conf is set up to allow virtual hosts so mydomain.com:8080 is served from that directory. (Yes, I included :8080 where needed.) * btw, Google says "Did you mean: geeklog An SQL error has occurred" so I guess 'occured' is spelled wrong. Don't feel bad, so is HTTP_REFERER. Hey, at least it keeps the matches unique. :-) ** just enough to be dangerous. I probably didn't RTFM as closely as I should have due to my memories of past easy successes. I'll be going over it again veeeery closely tonight.

While looking for the answer to my problem, I found this page http://lists.geeklog.net/pipermail/geeklog-users/2004-February/000810.html from exactly one year ago to the day, which I mistook for a current discussion. (It always takes me until about March for me to really be used to a new year.) So, I thought it was a new issue. Now I see that it isn't.

When I go into "My Downloads" (i.e. the file management plugin) and try to click on "Download" to download any of my files I get an error saying: "The connection was refused when trying to contact localhost" Anyone know what might be causing this?

Regardless of what fields I attempt to change, I get the error "The ID you chose for this story is already in use. Please use another ID." It appears that GL is not understanding that this story should be updated and instead is trying to create one anew. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this a new bug? or is there a known solution?
