Re: Cake PHP Migration Problems
I found what my problem was. I had an .htaccess file above the root directory and that was causing the issue. Once I removed that and restarted MAMP, it worked fine.

Re: Cake PHP Migration Problems
Cricket, Thanks for the explanation, but I am still having the same problem.. My .htaccess files are exactly as you listed and I am still getting the "max internal redirects" in my apache logs. My instance of cakephp worked fine for me when I tested the setup with one model. However... When I deleted that model,controller and views - I recreated it (through bake), along with several other models. Now I get this max redirects error. Any thoughts?

You likely have a redirect loop, so increasing the number of redirects
probably won't help. I guess it's ~possible~ that the client's hosting
setup chews through a few redirects, so you could try setting it to
something like 20 (I can't remember the default, but 20 should be far
more than enough) and see what happens. If it does start working,
decrease the number until it breaks again. But I'd put my money on a
loop.
The way Cake's redirection works is through two .htaccess files--one
above app/ and one inside app/ dir. Both of these forward any requests
to that dir to app/webroot/index.php. It's that file that ultimately
handles all requests. A third .htaccess file inside app/webroot checks
if the requested file exists inside that dir (so you can directly
serve your css, js, or other html or php files). If it doesn't, the
request is passed to index.php inside webroot.
If mod_rewrite isn't available, there's an index.php inside the app
dir. that simply includes app/webroot/index.php. But it appears that
mod_rewrite is functioning for you.
Can you clarify something? You said that the web root should be inside
this london dir. But 'london' does not have to appear in the URL? Is
that correct?
Anyway, it could be that you're missing the top-level .htaccess file
(the one ABOVE app). It should have:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule^$ app/webroot/[L]
RewriteRule(.*) app/webroot/$1 [L]
The one inside app should be:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule^$webroot/[L]
RewriteRule(.*) webroot/$1[L]
Finally, the one inside webroot:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]

Re: Cake PHP Migration Problems
Okay managed to get access to the error logs and they say the
following:
"mod_rewrite: maximum number of internal redirects reached. Assuming

Re: Cake PHP Migration Problems
Thanks for the replies, I thought it might be a doc route issue, I
presume the doc route is this section of code:
define('APP_DIR', 'app');
define('DS', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('ROOT', dirname(__FILE__));
define('WEBROOT_DIR', 'webroot');
define('WWW_ROOT', ROOT . DS . APP_DIR . DS . WEBROOT_DIR . DS);
Does that look right if the site is in a sub-folder off the route? At
the moment I can't access any parts of the site (internal server error
on everything). I'm going to take a closer look around the clients
control panel and see if he's missed the error logs.
Thanks for the help so far.

Re: Cake PHP Migration Problems
Could be a mod_rewrite issue or a doc root issue, check to make sure the doc root is set to /path/to/yoursite/app/webroot/. A new server will mean new database credentials as well, so make sure they've been updated.
