Installation error 'Loading template 'error.tmpl'

Vote 0 Votes

I am surprised I got this far

My files are in d:\mt\cgi-bin\
the mt-static are in d:\mt\mt-static

The setup said to use c:\windows\temp\

Is this where my problem is?

Can't load error template; got error 'Loading template 'error.tmpl' failed. '. Giving up. Original error was:
Loading template 'install.tmpl' failed.

Thanks

  • I would advise to change the CGIPath and StaticWebPath directives from relative to absolute URLs.

  • Mihai -- a little help here if you would not mind -- I am actually in the "backend" of MovableType and created a blog, published it but, no permissions to view it. I have followed the instructions to the letter regarding configuration on Web Server 2008 IIS 7 but I am stuck.

    Here's what I have so far on the config -- if you could makr it up if you think htat will help I would appreiciate it


    CGIPath /cgi-bin/
    StaticWebPath /
    StaticFilePath d:\mt\
    TemplatePath d:\mt\tmpl\

    Are you saying I should


    CGIPath http://worldnewsvine.us/cgi-bin/
    StaticWebPath http://worldnewsvine.us/
    StaticFilePath http://worldnewsvine.us
    TemplatePath http://worldnewsvine.us/tmpl

    I am using this address as my testbed for the moment

    Thanks

If you need to share template code, replace all the "<" signs with "&lt;" or use this utility.
