[SOLVED] Am i a moron or is this not realistic?

[holladb]

For the life of me i can't figure this out...

 

I have a website that was running on PHP4 just fine. Now that we're transferring the website to a dedicated PHP5 server it fails to work.

 

http://www.idealclothing.net <--PHP4

 

The PHP5 server is offline...

 

On the PHP4 server we are using a templating system. The admin side is also using a templating system. The admin template system works fine but the user side fails to work.

 

Lets say you click on "About Us" it goes to idealclothing.net/about. Works fine on PHP4 but on PHP5 i get a 404 error.

 

Does anybody know how to fix this??

Not without seeing code.  Whenever someone does a update, they forget to check the php.ini and set it like it was on the older version.

I'm guilty of that 

 

Speaking of, I still need to upgrade my live server to php5  :-\

I made the INI file a replica of the PHP4 ini file.

 

Here is an example of the code used to display:

require_once 'inc/config.inc.php';

$tpl->loadTemplatefile('page');

$db->setTable($GLOBALS['t_contents']);

if ($id != '') {
    $page = $db->get("id='".intval($id)."'", array('id', 'title', 'text'));
}

if ($alias != '') {
    $page = $db->get("alias='".mysql_escape_string($alias)."'", array('id', 'title', 'text'));
}

$tpl->setVariable(array(
    'TEXT'  => $page['text']
));

parseGlobal('global', '', 'page', $page['id']);

$db->disconnect();
$tpl->show();

Start by checking your web server log for errors (and turning on full php error reporting E_ALL to find Notices and Warnings that can help pin down where the problem is.)

 

Make sure that the php.ini that you are changing is the one that php is using.

Found the solution, I'm a moron and forgot to turn RewriteEngine on in apache!
