Not sure what you mean. As I said initally, I copied index.php from blog/wp-admin to / and then edited it to point to ./blog/wp-blog-header.php. Anyhow, it’s resolved now. The added themes were not working properly after changing the address. Uploading them again and reapplying them resolved the issue.

Changing back to the default theme has corrected it for the moment. On a hunch I switched that back. Not sure why it fixed it though….

Just one error in the entire log:
[Tue Apr 22 10:09:47 2008] [error] [client 99.242.22.193] File does not exist: /home/40632/domains/thisnurse.ca/html/favicon.ico, referer: https://thisnurse.ca/

index.php at blog/wp-admin:

<?php
/* Short and sweet */
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
require('./wp-blog-header.php');
?>

index.php at /

<?php
/* Short and sweet */
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
require('./blog/wp-blog-header.php');
?>

Hope this helps. I’ll change it all back soon if I can’t get it running…

Yes, you’re right it was just “written like that here”….

There are full URLs where necessary.

I didn’t edit the Permalinks before I set up the blog.

no. the address is https://thisnurse.ca www isn’t resolving yet. thisnurse.ca/blog/wp-admin/ is where WP is located.

Yes, I did COPY it. The original exists in its original, unedited form at /blog.

I misspoke. Those were the instructions I used. I did not, however, have to move anything because the WordPress files all stayed in /blog. What I did change was the publishing address – to / . So the only file I moved (and edited) was index.php. Is there another step I’m missing?

I first clicked ‘edit’ from the manage screen. Then clicked ‘delete post’ at the bottom of the ‘write post’ page.

Yeah the blog’s been running fine since the upgrade. Only when I tried these new plugins.

Never mind. Problem solved. Some reason, doesn’t like entire URI spelled out in blogheader line. When I updated it to just a locally-referenced URI, it worked fine.

Interesting. The location was still set properly and I updated the require line as mentioned above but can’t get pages to load now. No syntax errors either. Odd.

I added the word ‘poker’ to my comment spamlist and any comment with that word is now held for moderation. Not a great solution but did stop the current wave…

Fixed it myself. No mail server was running on the box. Enabling postfix did the trick…

Thanks. I’ll install that and give it a try.
