W3 Total Cache uses wrong file path

If you are looking for minify then I will also say that it does not work. So better do not use it. and also in one plugin where minify was working there IE was taking too much time to load the page for some reason. so check that also even if got success in minification.

and also you may need to upload files your self. It only uses static files (style sheets, imgs ,..) from wp-content folder. Do not forget to change the Upload path in WP setting. I forgot that.

Can you submit a bug submission from the support tab of the plugin?

I’ve submitted Bug thing with necessary information etc.

This should be fixed in the development version: https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/w3-total-cache/download/

Hello,

I’m using the latest version but i’m having the exact same problem as Andreas.

The URI works when I test it in the settings page, but the output repeats the server path twice before the actual path I entered in the settings.

Any idea how to work around this?

Thank you for building this plugin. It looks promising.

Did you try yesterday’s development version? If so, please submit a bug submission form.

Hello,
I just installed today’s development version before posting this to see if it would solve my problem, but it turns out that it doesn’t… So here is the issue :

I am running WP MU 2.9.2 & BuddyPress
My host is Web Faction (which is very competitive and offers great support by the way) and it has Gzip and NGinx enabled.

Question 1
The problem I am having is that when I try to regroup .js files in the footer (for example) the url for the combined scripts is placed just before the </body> tag as it should be and looks like this :

<script type="text/javascript" src="DOMAIN/wp-content/w3tc-domain.com/min/89d546/default.include-footer.188102117.js"></script>

But this link renders a “HTTP/1.0 400 Bad Request”

So I looked at the files generated on the server, and I have : wp-content/w3tc-domain.com/min/89d546/default.include-footer.js.id

Shouldn’t it look like this : default.include-footer.188102117.js

Question 2
I wanted to see if I was looking in the right direction so I checked out the log files and I noticed something else :

[Tue, 20 Jul 2010 18:22:11 +0000] [/wp-content/w3tc-domain.com/min/89d546/default.include-footer.188102117.js] The path “/home/webapps/_/home/webapps/wordpress_mu_292_php/wp-content/plugins/magicmagnify/core/magicmagnify.js” could not be found (or was not a file)
[Tue, 20 Jul 2010 18:22:11 +0000] [/wp-content/w3tc-domain.com/min/89d546/default.include-footer.188102117.js] No sources to serve

Apparently, the first part of the server directory (/home/webapps/) is repeated twice and separated by an underscore.
Why would that be added? I’m guessing this is a problem… isn’t it?

I hope you can help me out with this, i’m dying to use this plugin ??

Best,
C.

Nginx is not supported right now.

Is that what’s causing this problem?

Must be since I have no idea how you have anything set up as I have not natively done anything for nginx yet.

My host just got back to me with this information :

Nginx cannot be deactivated, however, your site is actually running on Apache and Nginx is just forwarding the requests to the Apache server so it is technically not running on Nginx.

The problem is most likely in your .htaccess as that is the file that is used to write your URLs.

There shouldn’t be any special configuration you need to use to be able to use that plugin correctly. Check the .htaccess file and see if things there are not right.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
C.

Not without seeing your settings. Bug submission report is needed (from the support tab of the plugin).
