Installation Wizard problems

Vote 0 Votes

Hi, I am trying to run the installation wizard for a site I am working on. I've uploaded all the files, but when it comes to defining the absolute path, I get an error every time:

Error: 'http://harvestcare.com/mt-static' could not be found. Please move your static files to the directory first or correct the setting if it is incorrect.

I am able to view the index.html default file that is part of the mt-static folder, so I believe the path is correct. Is there any way someone can take a look, I'm stumped. Thanks in advance!

  • Hi Mike,

    You may like to try to include the "www." prefix on the both "CGIPath" and "StaticWebPath" configuration directives.

    If that doesn't work you could consider to rename the file "mt-config.cgi-original" into "mt-config.cgi", to update all the directives in there and the database connections, then to chmod it to 755 and to access the CGIPath from the browser for the installation procedure.

    Kind Regards,
    Mihai Bocsaru
