Hi,

I'm currently running Fud 2.7.7 over at a Linode I'm running and I need to move the forum over to Bluehost.

I installed a new copy of 2.7.7 over at Bluehost, did a forum data dump at the old host, transferred that to the new one and import.

Every time I get this:

Processed 10000 queries
Processed 20000 queries
Processed 30000 queries

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 1000001 bytes) in /home4/forums/public_html/fud/adm/admimport.php on line 196

I've increased my php memory limit from 32mb to 128mb with no luck. I've tried without zlib with no joy.

I've only got a week or so to move this over.

Help!!!!!!!

Open admimport.php with a text editor and add/change:

@set_time_limit(0);
@ini_set('memory_limit', '256M');

Well it looks like my host just doesn't have the goods to do the import script.

So I tried to move the forum manually. I zipped up the files and backed up mysql and transferred them over.

Now I have it transferred, but I cannot re-enable the forum. I go to the forum, it says it's disabled and for me to log in which I do, but when I try to re-enable the forum and go to it, I get taken back to the "forum disabled" message.

I think the folder permissions might be off.

Please help me! Shocked

Also, when I go to unlock the files, I get a "500 Server Error".

To re-enable your forum, log on to the ACP directly. Append /adm to the forum's url. For example: your.domain.com/forum/adm

Check Apache's error_log file for details about the 500 server errors.

Best regards.

Oh I was dreading an answer like this. I was hoping this wasn't that unusual of a problem. Crying or Very Sad

Crying or Very Sad

When I "unlock" the forum's files, I get the 500 error in my logs (Accessing adm directly yields the same):

When I change the files in the document root from 666 to 644 and the contents of the adm folder 744, then the forum no long kicks out errors, but alas - it still refuses to re-enable. Sad

Frank. is there some documentation somewhere at Fud that lists which directories and files should have which permission? In the move the permissions became all out-of-whack since I had to transfer the files via archive.

Is there such a document?

Well, you don't have a FUDforum problem at all (not yet, anyway). You have a "how to make a php script run" problem.

The error log may have the key: "...is writeable by group". Try to chmod -R g-w * to see if it helps.

This may also help: http://cvs.prohost.org/index.php/FAQ#FUDforum_shows_a_blank_screen._What_no w?

Best of luck.

Hi Frank,

No joy. Your command didn't help. I still get the 500 error.

So I have to go back in and change permissions until I no longer get the 500 error message.

But here is the important point - after I stop getting the error message - the forum still doesn't work - refuses to re-enable or save any changes made in the global settings manager. And when I go to "unlock" the files - the back office breaks again!

Why this behavior?

PS: I assume there is no such folder structure permission guide document out there? No script that will check permissions or anything like that?

Forget about FUDforum. Just try to make any PHP script to work. When successful, we can discuss this further.

For example, if you can get this to work, you know what the file permissions should be: http://www.php.net/manual/en/tutorial.firstpage.php

After that, follow the tips in the FAQ (link I've posted earlier).

They do work.

How could I even get to the "Admin Control Panel"? You mean that's not a script? When I go to /adm/admglobal.php I do not get a script error. The script works; I get a page called "Global Settings Manager" with all those settings that won't save. But I don't get and error. I just can't enable the forum.

/adm/admphpinfo.php page works and displays my php info. Isn't that a script?

It is only when I "unlock" the forum pages that I get script errors.

Sounds like you've made some good progress. Please check if ./adm/GLOBALS.php links to the GLOBALS.php in your include directory:

$ ls -l adm/GLOBALS.php
lrwxrwxrwx 1 apache apache 59 2009-05-24 21:36 adm/GLOBALS.php -> ...data/include/GLOBALS.php

Best regards.

It wasn't linked. Each file was separate.

So when I link them like so:

 ls -l public_html/fud/adm/GLOBALS.php
lrwxrwxrwx 1 myforums myforums 28 May 24 15:21 public_html/fud/adm/GLOBALS.php -> fud_data/include/GLOBALS.php

I get a php error:

/home4/myforums/public_html/fud/adm/admglobal.php on line 12 [24-May-2009 15:24:53] PHP Warning: require(./GLOBALS.php) [<a href='function.require'>function.require</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home4/myforums/public_html/fud/adm/admglobal.php on line 12 [24-May-2009 15:24:53] PHP Fatal error: require() [<a href='function.require'>function.require</a>]: Failed opening required './GLOBALS.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home4/myforums/public_html/fud/adm/admglobal.php on line 12

BTW, thanks for everything!

A redo did the trick.

Thanks again for all your incredible help!
