Testlink 1.6.3 install on Apache as a Virtual Host

Post by timbo »

Hi,

I am running Testlink 1.6.3 on an Apache server. This means we can go to http://testlink internally to bring up the website. We can also goto http://server/testlink.

If i go directly to http://testlink the icons and logos are missing. there are errors in the logs showing it is trying to read them from the default icons folder.

File does not exist: /var/www/icons/company_logo.png, referer: https://testlink/login.php

Does anyone have any ideas on this? it works fine for other systems (e.g. Mediawiki).

Thanks

Tim

hi
I have seen your post in the forum and Im thinking that you might probably can help me. If you have the time.


Im running VISTA, with 'The Apache Software License, Version 2.0', PHP downloaded in:
http://www.php.net/downloads.php
click: PHP 5.2.4 zip package [9,702Kb] - 30 August 2007
: php-5.2.4-win32-installer

I got MS SQL too.


When I tried the installation in Internet Explorer, it keeps on showing a confirmation screen that says 'Run Save OK'. But when I tried Firefox browser and open the installation using this path, file:///C:/Users/Jojo/Downloads/testlink_170/testlink_170/install/index.php, i got this:

0) { ?>

Unfortunately, TestLink setup cannot continue at the moment, due to the above 1 ? $errors." " : "" ; ?>error 1 ? "s" : "" ; ?> .
Please correct the error 1 ? "s" : "" ; ?>, and try again. If you need help figuring out how to fix the problem 1 ? "s" : "" ; ?>, please visit TestLink Forums [click here].



The Testlink installation guide in pdf says ' Transfer the Testlink installation file to your webserver. You will need to telnet/ssh into the server machine for the next steps.'

How to do that? What are those files to be transferred and which folder it will go to? I am sorry, I am just new to these technologies. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Regards,
Jojo

timbo, I think that if you use virtual address, there is broken path for images.
You can check the path in generated html core (CTRL+U in firefox) and compare with reality - structure of your files on web server.

padlanau, don't mess topics. Your problem is different. Anyway, you don't use telnet/ssh because you work on localhost (not on remote server). Ask somebody who understand webservers.

Hi havlatm,

You are correct but the paths look fine. I am currently upgrading to 1.7.0 (well trying to the migration script keeps erroring on me). If this fixes the issue i will let you know.

I do not have this issue with MediaWiki and Bugzilla both of which run on the same server.
