Hi all,
I am having a problem installing FUDforum... On step 2 of the installer where it asks for the paths and URL I am getting the error:
Quote: |
Your WWW_ROOT does not correspond with the SERVER_ROOT path you have specified. (unable to retrive: http://forum.mizu-bu.org/bbs/WWW_ROOT_CHECK, on disk as: /clients/websites/forum.mizu-bu.org/html/bbs/WWW_ROOT_CHECK, received data: w/error: failed to open stream: Connection timed out
|
The part that confuses me is that while the script is waiting (before timing out) I can see the file: [/clients/websites/forum.mizu-bu.org/html/bbs/WWW_ROOT_CHECK] file and if I manually go to the URL in question: [http://forum.mizu-bu.org/bbs/] I can see the file: [WWW_ROOT_CHECK] listed, so I know the URL and the server paths are okay.
For reference:

One thing I find odd is that when the script runs step 2 it changes the directory mask on the two server directories to 711. I am not sure if this has anythig to do with it but I tried chmod'ing them back to 777 while the script was waiting without success.
I noticed that the contents of: [WWW_ROOT_CHECK] is a simple unix timestamp and when the install script times out it appeads a similar timestamp to the end of the script name. Is this also normal behaviour?
Thanks in advance!

PS - In case anyone tries, I have disabled this URL until I fix the problem.
