Hi all.

I've found a really nice looking calender, called CakeCalender that I want to install onto my site, it uses CakePHP http://cakephp.org/. I am having a problem setting this up and was wondering if anyone has used Cake before and if possible they would have a spare couple of minutes to help me install it correctly. I'vefollowed the instructions in the manual and it doesn't seem to work at all.

Where is your site hosted? The majority of issues that people have with getting Cake setup involve mod_rewrite.

ill try it on my lan and see what happens

are tou using the stable or devel version?

I am using the free hosting service of my-pace.us as this is a personal site.

I have installed Joomla now after finding jake to try and run the cake apps but still nothing is working.

Dave

Which calendar were you trying to use? and which version of cake?

I am trying to use the CakeCalender by David Golding http://www.davidgoldingdesign.com/cakecalendar

I am using cake 1.1.13.4450

Pay close attention to the version number here:

That's from his page.

Hmm, it will work. You have to add the user/administrator yourself, and the style is lacking. But it works... xD

Ok I've gone through and re-uploaded the directories to the server and I get the following messages

When I try and run Cake I get

Warning: file_exists() [function.file-exists]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/usr/share/php/cake/libs/view/templates/errors/home.ctp) is not within the allowed path(s): (/tmp/:/var/tmp/:/var/www/errors/:/home/vol3/myplace.us/daveclissold/daveclissold.com/htdocs) in /home/vol3/myplace.us/daveclissold/daveclissold.com/htdocs/cake/cake/basics.php on line 1440

and when I try and run cakecalendar

Warning: require(cake/bootstrap.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/vol3/myplace.us/daveclissold/daveclissold.com/htdocs/cakecalendar/webroot/index.php on line 78

Ok. Find the file called bootstrap.php. It should be in app/config/bootstrap.php. Now edit bootstrap.php and add the following code:

[PHP]$modelPaths = array('/home/vol3/myplace.us/daveclissold/daveclissold.com/htdocs/cake/app/models');
$viewPaths = array('/home/vol3/myplace.us/daveclissold/daveclissold.com/htdocs/cake/app/views');
$controllerPaths = array('/home/vol3/myplace.us/daveclissold/daveclissold.com/htdocs/cake/app/controllers');[/PHP]

I think the paths are probably correct, but they may not be just right. So you may have to edit them slightly, maybe add the trailing / or whatever.

Let me know what happens.

Bah. The forum is cutting some of it off.
$modelPaths = array('....models');
$controllerPaths = array('...controllers');

Still getting the same errors.
