Take a look at this http://community.actinic.com/showpost.php?p=302101&postcount=46
What did the network test error say?

JamesD
07-Mar-2011, 12:22 PM
Unable to move to the online store folder "../public_html/" on the FTP server possibly due to a mistake in the Path from CGI-BIN to Online Store Folder field.
The specified directory does not exist or you do not have access to the directory.

There are a few things you need to do:

1. Get rid of your 123-reg holding page. Actinic won't pass the network test while it's still there.

2. Your smtpserver needs to use the same domain name as your website.

3. Ask 123-reg where to put your cgi-bin.

4. Never use your domain without www. You're just asking for trouble.

After this, repost with an up to date set of network settings and the results of the network test. We should be able to get you sorted from there.

Have you tried changing the lines to match the settings in the post I linked to?

Namely...

PATHFROMCGITOCATALOG ../acatalog/

and

PATHTOCGIBIN /public_html/cgi-bin/

I'd also recommend you always use www as a prefix to your URLs as well.

An error occurred trying to create the sub-directory "acatalog" on the web site. This is usually due to user permissions, but could be due to low disk space on the web server.

550 acatalog: Permission denied
???!

Duncan Rounding

Use an FTP client to check the permissions on the cgi-bin and acatalog folders to be 755 and 777 respectively. You can download almost any free FTP client to do this. Navigate to the folders and then right click on them and set the permissions - sometimes called CHMOD.

JamesD
08-Mar-2011, 12:34 PM
the permissions are correct just checked using filezilla!!

The error message I am presented with when I do the network test is:

----------------------------------------------------------------
Unable to move to the online store folder "public_html/cgi-bin/" on the FTP server possibly due to a mistake in the Path from CGI-BIN to Online Store Folder field.
The specified directory does not exist or you do not have access to the directory.
----------------------------------------------------------------

I have tried to make sure all the permissions of the cgi-bin and acatalog folder are correct ie:

cgi-bin = 755 = drwxr-xr-x
acatolog = 777 = drwxrwxrwx

not sure whether these are the correct permissions?

one thing to add is that an index.html file has been uploaded to the acatlog folder and about 30 .pl / .pm files.
im not sure what the significance of this is though as when i type the url in the browser the site doesn not appear.

123 reg is unix i think.

any help is greatly appreciated...

Mike Hughes

OK.

The index.html file is probably the default 123-reg one, so I wouldn't worry about that just yet.

For some reason your domain name resolves to:

http://81.21.76.62/morgansdecorators.com/index.html

whch is a bit odd. You'll need to talk to 123-reg and get that sorted. It's not normal to have the IP address pre-pended to the url.

FTPPATHFROMCGITOCATALOG public_html/cgi-bin/acatalog/


This one is clearly wrong. There's no way the acatalog folder is inside the cgi-bin (at least I hope not). I suspect this setting is the 'leave blank unless otherwise advised' one so I'd leave it blank for now.

AFAIK with 123-reg you have to create your own cgi-bin directory, although this may have changed. If you ftp into your account, what does your directory structure look like? For example is it

public_html:
- acatalog
- cgi-bin

i.e. with both the acatalog and cgi-bin folders inside the public_html folder?

Mike

JamesD

i have deleted what is in ftppathfromcgitocatalog.

i changed the structure of my folders to what you suggested which is now:

public_html

-acatalog
-cgi-bin
-----------------------------------------------------------

i tried to upload again and got this long message!!



The web server returned an unknown response.

Possible Cause:
You are attempting to download orders
before uploading to the web site
Incorrect CGI-BIN URL in the web site details
Incorrect permissions on the CGI script on
the server (UNIX servers only)
Script corruption - Could be caused by:
Binary ftp transfer during manual installation
Incomplete transfer
Garbled transfer
etc.
Old or bad version of Perl running on server
Http server error
Wrong Path to Perl specified in the
web site details
Unknown
Recommendation:
Abort
Resolution:
Check cgi-bin script permissions
Compare cgi-bin script against local script to
check for corruption
Upgrade Perl on server (needs at least 5.002)
Run the Web | Configure Web Site Details command to verify your setup
Re-install the web site

Send me a text file containing your network settings using the export button in network settings.

Mike Hughes
25-Mar-2011, 10:09 AM
OK.

That's an interesting reponse. It seems to have picked up the 123-reg index.html page from the server. Not a problem though as we're still working on the settings.

Right. Now we know where the acatalog and cgi-bin are we can set these within Actinic. Most of what you have should be correct.

This though will have to change:

PATHFROMCGITOCATALOG ../public_html/acatalog/

Should just be ../acatalog/ (i.e. up one level then eneter acatalog directory).

Also check the permissions on the cgi-bin. They should be set to 755.

If this doesn't work, then check the network test response and see what files are appearing in the cgi-bin and acatalog directory.

When you are struggling with something and believe me you are right up there on this, it's very important that you listen and do specificaly as asked (if you want help). This gives you the best chance of fixing the problem in the shortest amount of time. If you want me to help and try sort it for you, you need to do as i ask, not as you want. I can do nothing with what you have provided.

iv changed the things you mentioned here... when i looked in the ftp file manager i notcied around ( 30 .pl / .pl files and then another acatalog folder has been created within the cgi-bin) is this correct?

Mike Hughes
25-Mar-2011, 10:43 AM
pl files in the cgi-bin is good.

acatalog in the cgi-bin is bad. Did you put the .. in front of the /acatalog/
for the PATHFROMCGITOCATALOG ?

Mike

JamesD
25-Mar-2011, 10:54 AM
wasn't sure whether to include the .. or not!!

when i do include the ..

i simply get this error

Mike Hughes
25-Mar-2011, 11:08 AM
Yes, we need the .. (that means go up one level in the directory).

Actinic shouldn't need to create the acatalog directory as it should be there already. Can you check the spelling and that the permissions on it are 777.

Mike

JamesD
25-Mar-2011, 11:27 AM
yes checked both of these things!!

files seem to begin to upload ok but then when it gets to the stage of sending compressed files the problem occurs.

Mike Hughes

Can you post the currents settings so we can check them and what happens when you run a network test?

The error message is the same as before.......

I am just wondering whether there is something wrong with my database etc causing it to not upload as a certain amount of files are uploading to acatalog but then the upload suddenly stops...........

perhaps i should try starting a new test actinic site from scratch and use these settings to see if it would work?

Resolution:
Check cgi-bin script permissions
Compare cgi-bin script against local script to
check for corruption
Upgrade Perl on server (needs at least 5.002)
Run the Web | Configure Web Site Details command to verify your setup
Re-install the web site
Review server response for hints

The best thing is to stay focused on one approach. It's unlikely to be your website that's the problem.

Two things to change.

1. This

FTPHOST 94.136.40.103

Should be www.morgansdecorators.com

2. Tick the passive ftp box.

changed the ip to www.morgansdecorators.com

ticked passive ftp transfers

error message now is:

An FTP error occurred: -
Request: ->Opening connection to www.morgansdecorators.com on port 21
Error: A connection with the server could not be established

Hi James,

As I just replied on email.

Everything is now loading onto your server OK, the problem appears to be that 123-reg is displaying a holding page rather than your website, even though your files are all in the right place.

You need to get your domain name pointing at your server rather than the holding page. Then we should be able to finish getting this going.

The problem using the domain name for ftp supports this theory. As does the nonsense report actinic gets back from the webserver.

From what I can see this is all working now. The major problem was that the domain wasn't pointing at the server so the 123-reg holding page was being displayed (and sent back to actinic when it tried to check the perl scripts etc).

The network settings that work are essentially the same as Lee posted and referenced by Duncan earlier in the thread.
