Site problems after installing Sentinel

New Member Joined: Sep 09, 2005 Posts: 5

I have done what the readme from Sentinel said, but i encounter some really big problems using it.

* My Coppermine photoalbum isnt working anymore.. it appears to be blank.
* My Site style sheets aren't working anymore (and that is the worst i encounter at this moment)
* Your Account doesnt work anymore

It went well till i installed patch 3.1 to get Sentinel running, could someone tell me what i have to do to get my CSS be used again? I dont know what to do.

My site is www.froubuurt.nl

Thnx

hi,

were both dutch but we continue in english.. Smile

when you installed sentinel and edited the header.php you probably?..took out a line like...

Code:

echo "<LINK REL=\"StyleSheet\" HREF=\"themes/$ThemeSel/style/style.css\" TYPE=\"text/css\">\n\n\n";

Can you check if its still there?

the code around it looks like :

Code:

}


    echo "<link rel=\"alternate\" type=\"application/rss+xml\" title=\"RSS\" href=\"backend.php\">\n";


    echo "<LINK REL=\"StyleSheet\" HREF=\"themes/$ThemeSel/style/style.css\" TYPE=\"text/css\">\n\n\n";


    if (file_exists("includes/custom_files/custom_head.php")) {


     include_once("includes/custom_files/custom_head.php");


    }

indeed, it isnt there anymore, but i dont know where it was exactly, so I think i need some more help from you, but i didnt edited it, i overwrote it from the patched files

well the patched has exactly the same content...
please compare your header.php with this part..

Code:

function head() {


    global $slogan, $sitename, $banners, $nukeurl, $Version_Num, $artpage, $topic, $hlpfile, $user, $hr, $theme, $cookie, $bgcolor1, $bgcolor2, $bgcolor3, $bgcolor4, $textcolor1, $textcolor2, $forumpage, $adminpage, $userpage, $pagetitle;


    include("includes/ipban.php");


    $ThemeSel = get_theme();


    include_once("themes/$ThemeSel/theme.php");


    echo "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN\">\n";


    echo "<html>\n";


    echo "<head>\n";


    echo "<title>$sitename $pagetitle</title>\n";


    include("includes/meta.php");


    include("includes/javascript.php");





    if (file_exists("themes/$ThemeSel/images/favicon.ico")) {


   echo "<link REL=\"shortcut icon\" HREF=\"themes/$ThemeSel/images/favicon.ico\" TYPE=\"image/x-icon\">\n";


    }


    echo "<link rel=\"alternate\" type=\"application/rss+xml\" title=\"RSS\" href=\"backend.php\">\n";


   echo "<LINK REL=\"StyleSheet\" HREF=\"themes/$ThemeSel/style/style.css\" TYPE=\"text/css\">\n\n\n";


    if (file_exists("includes/custom_files/custom_head.php")) {


     include_once("includes/custom_files/custom_head.php");


    }


    echo "\n\n\n</head>\n\n";


    if (file_exists("includes/custom_files/custom_header.php")) {


     include_once("includes/custom_files/custom_header.php");


    }


    themeheader();


}

You see this sample starts with "function head" and ends with "themeheader" ..

Now compare this with yours...as you see this speedtype

>

Code:

themes/$ThemeSel/style/style.css\" TYPE=\"text/css\">

has to be put back in where you see it...

Looking at your source shows that you also have 2 closing head tags ( </head>)
If you cant get it right for some reason i can help but then i need ftp access but thats your choice in that...
If you choose that the info can be send by pm.

Thanks Hitwalker, it really worked out for me. About those 2 closing head tags, they don't encounter me problems.

I fixed my Coppermine module by reinstalling the source and its running smooth again. The Your Account module is also running again.

Thanks for the help

nice,before i went to bed i checked your site and looked ok...

after fixing all things i didn't mentioned that i have a new problem.. my News module is acting very weird. When i have a story that contains a read more part, the problem i encounter is that when you click the link, it won't appear.

Is there someone that knows a solution for this problem, because this isn't what i expect the module has to do, some stories are read now for 800 times!

well that has to be a mistake,but i dont see a story with a readmore link..
Edit...yeah i see one,hold on..
