    Content Directory entered does not exist

    Hi,

    I am having the same problem as many others. Reading their posts did not give me an answer that works. I am also stuck on step 5.

    It says this should be my content folder:

    /homepages/17/d129260592/htdocs/E7Thunders/ATutor/content

    I am installing ATutor on the following location:

    e7thunders.com/Atutor/

    I created all the subfolders, under ATutor:

    /homepages/17/d129260592/htdocs/E7Thunders/ATutor/content

    I set the permissions to 777 for all these folders.

    I still get the error message.

    Help is appreciated!

    Robert

    I also see no place to edit the location of the content folder. It appears on the error screen but I cannot edit it.

    Make sure there are no symbolic links in the path to your content directory.

    You can run the following function in a file to get the correct path. Put the file in your content directory, then open it in a browser.

    [php]

    getcwd();

    [/php]

    Edit the path in include/config.inc.php once this file has been generated by the installer.

    Hi Greg,

    I did as you said but the php page doesn't seem to do anything. Was it supposed to output the full directory name to the screen? I am not much of a pvp programmer.

    Thanks,

    Robert

    exact code of page

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"

    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
    <title>Untitled Document</title>
    </head>

    <body>

    </body>
    </html>
    <?php

    getcwd();
    ?>

    I also tried it several other ways. Nothing tells me the exact path.

    Fixed it

    Not sure how I got so messed up. But all I needed to do was create a folder called content under the ATutor folder. Instead, I created the entire nest of folders, that were already there. i.e.
    /homepages/17/d129260592/htdocs/E7Thunders/ATutor/homepages/17/d129260592/htdocs/E7Thunders/ATutor/content

    instead of just /homepages/17/d129260592/htdocs/E7Thunders/ATutor/content

    Problem solved.
