Moved to windows server

Submitted by chrisst1 on Thu, 2008-01-10 12:00 in

Hi David

Happy New Year and hope you are keeping busy.

We have just moved our PT site from our old linux server to a new windows server and find that our php code URLs containing /var/www/html/ in lines such as:
$common_path "/var/www/html/productsearch/flowershops/includes/";
obviously no longer function.

Any ideas of how to or with what to replace /var/www/html/ with to get the same result

The path on the new server looks as follows.

C:\Inetpub\vhosts\OURSITE\httpdocs\productsearch\flowershops\includes

Hi Chris,

I'm presuming that $common_path is part of a customisation on your site (it is not a standard Price Tapestry global variable); but it looks like you just need to replace it with the appropriate similar path on your windows server. As far as I know, you can continue to use the forward slash, so instead of:

$common_path = "/var/www/html/productsearch/flowershops/includes/";

Use:

$common_path = "c:/Inetpub/vhosts/OUTSITE/httpdocs/productsearch/flowershops/includes/";

Hope this helps,
Cheers,
David.

Thanks David

That worked, I did not think to put the full path in place. The line of code I was refering to was in include/common.php line 6.

Many thanks
Chris
