My b2evolution Version: Not Entered

First, my site is http://www.jamesdemastus.com

My old host (fuitadnet) lost my site, so I migrated to DreamHost.com. I was able to successfully import my last backed up SQL database from June 23. I lost everything I posted in July.

I setup B2Evo 1.10.2. I was previously on 1.9.3.

If you go to my site, everything appears fine. The back engine works perfectly. I can edit old posts, change settings, edit users without problem.

The problem is that on my main page, any internal links I click that would keep me within the blog (calendar dates, archives, comments, or "read more") result in an error, :"No input file specified."

What the heck does that mean? I did notice I can click next and previous to navigate to older posts. I'm not a noob, but I'm also not an expert. I use a modified ality skin, where all I really did was change the colors and add links to my friends sites.

I cannot see from here what has changed, but it is my guess you have some stub files that you didn't copy to the location they were. Check in backoffice-> Blog Settings -> Blog URL parameters. These settings should match your previous situation or you have to figure out a new url with new stub files.

If this information didn't solve the problem please report back to this forum.

Good luck

Thanks,

The settings do match what I had before. Any other ideas? I've realized this issue happens no matter what skin I use.

Have you tried using the example .htaccess ? It looks like your new server doesn't have extra path info ( I had a similar problem on a godaddy server )

I haven't tried anything with .htaccess, and I just realized I don't even have an .htaccess file.

There is a sample.htaccess in the package that is called that way because Windows doesn't like .htaccess as a filename. You can edit this file. See [url=http://manual.b2evolution.net/Htaccess]the manual[/url] about editing.

Once you are satisfide, you upload the sample.htaccess and then rename it to .htaccess. The (L)unix based Apache server allows the filename.

Good luck

I went into my panel that my host (dreamhost) provides and changed my PHP version from 4.47 to 5.22 (or whatever the numbers were.) The point is, I went from PHP4 to PHP5 and everything works now.

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately there are more issues regarding php4. Luckily DreamHost allows easy switching, but it would even been better if DreamHost offered php5 by default.
The big guys will figure out what causes the difference and that will help them developing further.

Happy blogging.

There is an option to enable FastCGI support. Will that help b2evo at all?

I dont think so - but curious if your using Cpanel as your interface?

To my knowledge that's more Perl and Python stuff.

DreamHost has it's own proprietary panel. I can't say it's as nice as cpanel, but it does get the job done.
