Hello,

After I installed Fileman, I get this error when trying to access it:
Invalid template 'http:/MY_URL/cgi/private/templates/home.html' requested (File does not exist) at /www/cgi/private/lib/GT/FileMan.pm line 109.When I checked the /templates directory, I do not see a file named "home.htm"I did check the paths to the directory, and they appear to be correct.If I need to reinstall, do I simply delete the files, or is there anything else I need to do before I attempt this.Thank you in advance for any advice and help.Cordially,Kurt

Hi,

It looks like you used a URL, rather than path.

i.e;

http:/MY_URL/cgi/private/templates/home.htm

..should be;

/www/cgi/private/templates/home.html

Make sure that you take note of the differences when installing.. and then it should work fine <G>

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Hi Andy,

Thank you so much for your response. I know I am missing something very basic here, so please forgive me - I am very new at this and still learning a lot. Here is my file:

{
'cookie' => '1',
'password' => 'XXXXXXXXX',
'html_root_url' => 'http://MY_URL/cgi/images',
'filename_check' => '1',
'reg_number' => undef,
'passwd_dir_level' => '0',
'root_path' => 'www/cgi',
'upload_chmod' => '644',
'priv_path' => 'www/cgi/private',
'checkspace' => '0',
'image_path' => 'www/cgi/images',
'command_time_out' => '20',
'template_root' => 'www/cgi/private/templates',
'username' => 'seaphoto',
'path_to_perl' => '/usr/bin/perl',
'allowed_space' => '0',
'version' => '2.1.1',
'root_url' => 'http://MY_URL/cgi',
'single' => '1',
'root_dir' => 'www/cgi'
};

Again, thank you very much for your fast reply!

Cordially,

Kurt

Hi,

No problem.

One thing that strikes me right away, is how you set your paths. For example;

'template_root' => 'www/cgi/private/templates',

..should have a / in front...i.e;

'template_root' => '/www/cgi/private/templates',

,..and the same for all the other paths (otherwise, it will try and look for itself, inside itself.. if that makes sense <G>

Also. I'm not 100% sure that /www/cgi/private/ is your path. It just doesn't look right

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Thanks for that Andy, I added the "/" where appropriate. I am able to access the login screen occasionally - sometimes it appears, I enter my password, and then get the "'/cgi/private/templates/home.html' " error message. Other times, I jump straight to the error message without having to log-in.

As for the path to templates, when you say it does not look right, do you mean because of the "www" in front of it, or for some other reason? On my host, there is a path /cgi/private/templates (they do not use cgi-bin as the file name). My host is freeservers.com if that makes a difference.

I know I am missing something obvious and simple here - again, thanks for your help!

Cordially,

Kurt
