I am just getting into Cake, and I really like it so far. It is going to speed up some of the work I do. Here is my problem though.
I run a VPS, and since I have clients hosting with us, it's probably a good idea to keep the cake/cake files in a central place, so I put them in /usr/local/lib/php/cake/. I have a client, we'll say his name is Jim. I am going to be running an admin tool for him, so I want http://www.jim.com/admin/ to be the site root for the cake app. Jim's web files live at /home/jim/public_html/ So Jim's admin is at /home/jim/public_html/admin/ Jim's cake app is at /home/jim/public_html/admin/app/ Jim's 'webroot' folder is at /home/jim/public_html/admin/app/webroot/ Does that make sense? Anyhow, I can get cake to say everything is ok, but mod_rewrite doesn't seem to be working. My base site http://www.jim.com/admin/ comes up with proper content, but all the CSS and images are missing. I have changed my routes.php to see if my controller was working (and it is), but if I go to http://www.jim.com/admin/controller_name/ I get a 404 error, as if the server is not re-writing the URL at all. I have modified my /home/public_html/admin/app/webroot/index.php as follows: if (!defined('ROOT')) { //define('ROOT', 'FULL PATH TO DIRECTORY WHERE APP DIRECTORY IS LOCATED DO NOT ADD A TRAILING DIRECTORY SEPARATOR'; //You should also use the DS define to seperate your directories define('ROOT', DS.'home'.DS.'jim'.DS.'public_html'.DS.'admin'); } if (!defined('APP_DIR')) { //define('APP_DIR', 'DIRECTORY NAME OF APPLICATION'; define ('APP_DIR', basename(dirname(dirname(__FILE__)))); } /** * This only needs to be changed if the cake installed libs are located * outside of the distributed directory structure. */ if (!defined('CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH')) { //define ('CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH', FULL PATH TO DIRECTORY WHERE CAKE CORE IS INSTALLED DO NOT ADD A TRAILING DIRECTORY$ //You should also use the DS define to seperate your directories define('CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH', '/usr/local/lib/php/cake'); } I followed the documentation in the manual, but I can't figure out what's going on.
