Document Root Issue - Sub Directory on Godaddy

[trunker]

Hello, I am a PHP noob and am moving a website over to my godaddy deluxe account.  I have created the database, imported the tables etc and I am getting a lot of errors which look like a document root problem.

 

Here is the site I am moving (in working condition)  http://www.flbiz4sale.com

 

Here is where I am moving it to and eventually point my records to:  http://www.paradiseprotech.com/flbiz 

 

My configure.php file looks like this

 

<?php

  define('DIR_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['DOCUMENT_ROOT']);

 

  define('DIR_INCLUDES', DIR_DOCUMENT_ROOT . '/includes/');

  define('DIR_SHARED', DIR_INCLUDES . 'shared/');

  define('DIR_TEMPLATES', DIR_INCLUDES . 'templates/');

 

  define('DIR_CLASSES', DIR_DOCUMENT_ROOT . '/classes/');

  define('DIR_CONNECTION', DIR_DOCUMENT_ROOT . '/Connections/');

  define('DIR_SCRIPT_LIB', DIR_DOCUMENT_ROOT . '/ScriptLibrary/');

  define('DIR_IMAGE_PATH', DIR_DOCUMENT_ROOT . '/images/');

 

  include(DIR_SHARED . 'configure_site.php'); 

  include(DIR_SHARED . 'functions.php');

?>

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks!

um...does godaddy allow globals?

[trunker]

No I don't think so that I why its failing?  How could I change it to work?

 

Thanks!

either edit your php.ini, or add this in an .htaccess file:

php_flag register_globals on

[trunker]

OK I tried adding that line to the .htaccess file and then I got an internal server error.  I then edited the php.ini file and changed global from off to on.  But still experiencing the same symptoms... ???

 

Thanks Jon for the quick replies.

Jon, what I did was change

 

register_globals = off to register_globals = on

 

Is this correct?

 

Thanks!

did you restart apache after changing php.ini?

[wildteen88]

The errors has nothing to do with register_globals. This line:

  define('DIR_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['DOCUMENT_ROOT']);

should be:

  define('DIR_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . 'flbiz/');

[trunker]

OK I tried that and did not get any change...I thought that would work though, it makes sense.  Any other ideas?

[trunker]

To specify what I tried, I tried changing the define line as suggested by the super mod. 

 

Blue - Can I restart godaddy's server?  ???

 

Thanks!

Solved!  Wildteen88 was right, just forgot a "/" in front of flbiz...I caught it and fixed it.

 

 

Many Thanks for all the time you have saved me.

 

What a great resource!

You might want to fix your html/css as your layout is screwed in firefox.

One more question.

 

Take a look at the link locations of the buttons here:  http://www.paradiseprotech.com/flbiz/

 

When I change the DNS records over to flbiz4sale.com - Will that change the paradiseprotech.com link?  - I sure hope so!

 

Thanks!

Yeah I noticed that.  Not really sure how to fix that one. 

 

Any suggestions.

 

Thanks!
