Problems after moving website on real server

ktsixit 27 May, 2009
Hi all,
I have created a joomla website using xampp, locally on my pc. Today I moved the website on a real online server and I have problems with chronoforms component.

At the frontend, there's a notice, in the page that the form is posted. This is the notice message:
Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$plugins in /users/ker/website/website/public_html/components/com_chronocontact/chronocontact.html.php on line 302
code in this line:
$ava_plugins = explode(",",$paramsvalues->plugins);


At the backend, in Forms Manager page there's another notice:
Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$tablenames in /users/ker/website/website/public_html/administrator/components/com_chronocontact/admin.chronocontact.html.php on line 123
code in this line:
value = value.replace(/%26/g,"&"); 


Also, if I try to create a new form by pressing the "New" button, I get a "Not Found - The requested URL /installation/index.php was not found on this server" page. The same thing happens if I try to edit an existing form, or by trying to do anything else inside the components backend.

What happened? I don't understand. What can I do to fix this problem?

Hi ktsixit,

It sounds as though not everything has transferred correctly. How did you move your website?

The plugins error sounds as though the Plugins table may nto be in the database.

The installation error sounds as though perhsps the installation folder hasn't been removed or the site path is incorrect.

I transfered files through ftp. I'll try to upload the files again, both for adminitrator and components directory and see if something changes. Is there something else I could do?

Also I can see a jos_chrono_contact_plugins in my database. I'll check if installation directory is deleted or not.

I hadn't deleted the installation directory. It's deleted now. I also re-uploaded the component files.
Unfortunately the problem remains the same.

Hi ktsixit,

FTPing the files isn't the best way to do a site transfer. There are some instructions at joomla.org I think. If I recall correctly you do db backup, install a clean version of Joomla and then restore the database.

What I did was to create a new database on server and import the data of my local database. Then I changed my configuration.php file and transfered all my files on server through ftp.
That's what's been suggested in forums.
If I make a new joomla installation on server, what happens with my locally installed modules and components? Do I have to install and configure them again from scratch?

Hi ktsixit,

Ok - that makes sense. But something there is stil broken :-(

mmm, why it tries to access "/installation/index.php", are you sure that there is a configuration.php file there ? does this problem happen with Chronoforms only ?

Cheers,

I managed to uninstall and re-install chrono forms, and the problem remains the same. I also have problem with one more component but everything else is working fine. I also tried to make a fresh installation of joomla on server but I had multiple problems with that and I quited form it. I there something I should check inside the database tables related to chrono forms? Some link maybe? I don't know...
There is something broken indeed but can't figure out what.

Hi ktsixit,

Check that you don't have any links to the old site in any file like .htaccess or so ?

if you can give temporarily admin and phpmyadmin access then I will check it!

I found the cause for all my problems. The php safemode was On, on server and that caused multiple problems. I moved my website on another server and it's all working ok now. Thank you for your replies.
