Joomla! Discussion Forums

Hello,

I tried to move configuration.php file EXACTLY as mentioned here:
http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/topic ... #msg604266

but the following error occurred:

1. the site did not loads at all, loads completely blank page.
2. When i tried to load administration backend this error occured:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: joomconfig() in /home/xxx/public_html/configuration.php on line 2

I have checked the format and all the code is exactly the same as mentioned, but did not work!

the original code:
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/../joomla.conf' );
?>

i have created joomlaconfig directory at site root, changed the configuration.php to joomla.conf,
and i changed the code this way:

require( joomlaconfig( __FILE__ ) . '/../joomla.conf' );
?>


Please help me to resolve this issue.

You might need another  " ../ "  if your site is in a sub-directory....

no, the site is inside public_html directory...

...and I created the joomlaconfig directory one level up.

Please help me

I'm pretty sure that those lines should be:



You changed dirname to joomlaconfig.

If, as it seems from these posts, that you created a directory called 'joomlaconfig' in your web account's root directory, your site structure probably looks about like this:

/home/your_name/www/      <-- all the joomla files are here
/home/your_name/joomlaconfig/joomla.conf      <-- you moved and renamed the configuation file to here

If that's correct, your new configuration.php file should be located here:
/home/your_name/www/configuration.php

And contain exactly the following code (nothing more or less).

Just for the record, on a godaddy virtual dedicated server I had to use this path:

( '/var/www/vhosts/{domain}/httpsdocs/salon13/non_public/joomla.conf' );
