Re: Advanced Installation

I use this setup for all my apps.

I have the CakePHP core at one of the following locations, depending on the version I am using for the app:

/Users/predominant/Projects/cakephp/1.1

/Users/predominant/Projects/cakephp/1.2

/Users/predominant/Projects/cakephp/1.3

Each app is in /Users/predominant/Projects/myprojectname

in myprojectname/webroot/index.php I change the CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH define to be the directory containing the "cake" directory for the version I need:

/Users/predominant/Projects/cakephp/1.3

The apache document root is set to the webroot directory inside app/

Ensure debug is turned on to 2, so you can see any errors that may be present.

Ensure that your app/tmp directory structure is writable by the web server user

Let me know how you go.

Hi,

I'm attempting to install cake on my server using the advanced
installation instructions. When I do a normal install everything
appears to work correctly. However, when I attempt to move the cake
folder all I get is a blank screen.

Here is the configuration I am trying to achieve:

   Cake folder: /var/www/vhosts/cake
   App foler: /var/www/vhosts/site1.com/httpdocs/app
   Webroot folder: /var/www/vhosts/site1.com/httpdocs/app/webroot

My index folder in the webroot is defined like this:

   define('ROOT', dirname(dirname(dirname(__FILE__))));
   define('APP_DIR', basename(dirname(dirname(__FILE__))));
   define('CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH', dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname
(dirname(__FILE__))))));

I have also tried this:

   define('CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH', DS.'var'.DS.'www'.DS.'vhosts');

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
