Mamp Pro issues showing Perch site

Hello Grant,

Do you by any chance have theindex.php in /public instead of /public/perch?

Shouldn't .../119-Stokesley-Council/public/index.php be .../119-Stokesley-Council/public/perch/index.php?

Hi Hussein,

The link you're referencing to is incorrect, the file actually sits in .../119-Stokesley-Council/public/perch/index.php, but Mamp is generating or looking for .../119-Stokesley-Council/public/index.php. This is basically the problem and why my site is not working

Thanks, but no it doesn't work.

I thought RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d was only if your upgrading from an old version of perch? This is a totally fresh install.

Hi,

Path is define('PERCH_SITEPATH', '/Users/Grant/Sites/119-Stokesley-Council/public');

No problems on install, in fact, there is three other runway sites running perfectly fine. This only seems to be an issue with new installs?

config.php

<?php
    switch($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']) {

        case 'dev.stokesleytowncouncil.gov.uk':
            include(__DIR__.'/config.dev-stokesleytowncouncil-gov-uk.php');
            break;

        default:
            include('config.production.php');
            break;
    }

    define('PERCH_LICENSE_KEY', 'XXXXXX-XXXXXX-XXXXXX-XXXXXX-XXXXXX');
    define('PERCH_EMAIL_FROM', 'grant@XXXXXX.co.uk');
    define('PERCH_EMAIL_FROM_NAME', 'Grant Smith');

    define('PERCH_LOGINPATH', '/perch');
    define('PERCH_PATH', str_replace(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'config', '', __DIR__));
    define('PERCH_CORE', PERCH_PATH.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'core');

    define('PERCH_RESFILEPATH', PERCH_PATH . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'resources');
    define('PERCH_RESPATH', PERCH_LOGINPATH . '/resources');

    define('PERCH_HTML5', true);
    define('PERCH_TZ', 'UTC');

config.dev

<?php

    define('PERCH_SITEPATH', '/Users/Grant/Sites/119-Stokesley-Council/public');

    define('PERCH_SCHEDULE_SECRET', 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXX');

    define('PERCH_DB_USERNAME', 'root');
    define('PERCH_DB_PASSWORD', 'root');
    define('PERCH_DB_SERVER',   "localhost");
    define('PERCH_DB_DATABASE', 'XXXXXX');
    define('PERCH_DB_PREFIX',   'ghted4_');

Appreciate your persistance

case 'dev.stokesleytowncouncil.gov.uk':

Just checking, In mamp is your host name dev.stokesleytowncouncil.gov.uk? Otherwise Perch will default to the config.production.php.

@wayne

Yes, that's correct.

Exactly the same as the three working sites I mentioned previously.

Sorry, that was my only suggestion.

Hope you get it sorted.

Thanks for trying Wayne, it's very odd and frustrating, if none were working I'd understand.

Are there any differences between the permissions for this site and the others? Click the people icon to the right of Document Root under the General tab in MAMP to see these.

Hi Clive,

Yes, they are different! Progress, maybe?

The working site has these:

Not working

In case images do not work

Working: Owner: Grant - Group: Multiple groups - Directory rights: Owner: tick tick tick Group: dash dash dash Others: dash nothing dash

Not working: Owner: Grant - Group: Admin - Directory rights: Owner: tick tick tick Group: tick tick tick Others: tick nothing tick

I tried 'Store selected server setting from current server' on the working site. Thinking I could apply it to the non-working site. This doesn't seem possible for some reason?

I also cannot see which groups are selected on the working, I know there are multiple selected, but which ones? And what options do they have applied?

I think Multiple may mean "Any of these". The only thing I can suggest is make the problem site settings the same as your other sites as far as you can.

Hi All,

Thank you, everyone, that has tried helping me with this. Unfortunately, I am no further forward, and desperately need to get on with work. I may try uninstalled Mamp pro completely, including prefs. However, if that doesn't work, I'm stuffed. This raises the question. As a Mac user, do I have any alternatives?

Suggestions welcome please
