are you sure /www/gfe/files is the full absolute path to GFE?

From what I see, it is not, it is just the path you can see starts from /www

[core]

i think so.. if i login to the server i get this structure. do i need php?

[GaMerZ]

yes create a file called phpinfo.php and then inside the content put

Code: [Select]

<?php phpinfo(); ?> and pass me the url to that file.

[core]

HI GaMerZ:

I am sorry to disturb you.

My OS is win2003, I used xampp running PHP, wordpress,  and so on.

I also appeared in the wrong, I would like to ask about how to solve?

Annex I of the LocalHost information.

thanks.

[GaMerZ]

Paste your config here

[hantts]

 Here are my running phpinfo.php, results. But a little more.

[GaMerZ]

I am talking about the config.php for GFE as well.

[hantts]

sorry, I understand it wrong.
PLS see below:

$root_directory = 'D:/Program%20Files/xampp/htdocs/GaMerZFileExplorer';

$root_url = 'http://localhost/gfe';

$gfe_directory = 'D:/Program%20Files/xampp/htdocs/gfe';

$gfe_url = 'http://localhost/gfe';

$site_name = 'GaMerZ.File.Explorer';

$root_filename = 'index.php';

$nice_url = true;

$can_search = true;

$default_sort_by = 'date';

$default_sort_order = 'desc';

PS: My site root dir is "D:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs"

thanks.

[GaMerZ]

Your folder name in $root_directory ends with GaMerZFileExplorer and your folder name in $root_url ends with gfe? They should match!

[hantts]

Thanks your reply. Your help, I finally made it.

But I can't use "$nice_url = true;" mode, I do something :

1. i see http://forums.lesterchan.net/index.php?topic=2707.0 ,and add "<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>......</IfModule>
" into apache\conf\httpd.conf file;
2. find "#LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so" in httpd.conf and del "#";
3. "AllowOverride None" to replace "AllowOverride All" in httpd.conf;

but can't running apache.

// Example: /home/user/public_html/files
$root_directory = 'D:/Program Files/xampp/htdocs';

### The URL To That Folder (Without Trailing Slash)
// Example: http://www.yoursite.com/files
$root_url = 'http://localhost';

### The Absolute Path Of The Folder You Uploaded The Files Of GaMerZ File

Explorer (Without Trailing Slash)
// Example: /home/user/public_html/gfe
$gfe_directory = 'D:/Program Files/xampp/htdocs/gfe';

// Example: http://www.yoursite.com/gfe
$gfe_url = 'http://localhost/gfe';

### Your Site Name
$site_name = 'GaMerZ.File.Explorer';

[GaMerZ]

if you cant use it to true, then set it false. You need to have some knowledge of htaccess rewriting if you want to set it to true.

[hantts]

To remind you of, I have already done a number of actions:

1.   Enable Apache's  mod_rewrite;

2.   Modified "$ nice_url = true;";

3.   open "gfe\.htaccess" and modify:

begin:
# BEGIN GFE
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /files/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^sortby/(.+[^/])/sortorder/(.+[^/])/?$ /files/index.php?by=$1&order=$2 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^browse/(.+[^/])/sortby/(.+[^/])/sortorder/(.+[^/])/?$ /files/index.php?dir=$1&by=$2&order=$3 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^browse/(.+[^/])/?$ /files/index.php?dir=$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^viewing/(.+[^/])/?$ /files/view.php?file=$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^download/(.+[^/])/?$ /files/view.php?file=$1&dl=1 [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
# END GFE

end:
# BEGIN GFE
<IfModule Mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase / gfe /
RewriteCond% (REQUEST_FILENAME)!-F
RewriteCond% (REQUEST_FILENAME)!-D
RewriteRule ^ sortby /(.+[^/])/ sortorder /(.+[^/])/?$ / gfe / index.php? By = $ 1 & order = $ 2 [QSA, L]
RewriteRule ^ browse /(.+[^/])/ sortby /(.+[^/])/ sortorder /(.+[^/])/?$ / gfe / index.php? Dir = $ 1 & by = $ 2 & order = $ 3 [QSA, L]
RewriteRule ^ browse /(.+[^/])/?$ / gfe / index.php? Dir = $ 1 [QSA, L]
RewriteRule ^ viewing /(.+[^/])/?$ / gfe / view.php? File = $ 1 [QSA, L]
RewriteRule ^ download /(.+[^/])/?$ / gfe / view.php? File = $ 1 & dl = 1 [QSA, L]
</ IfModule>
# END GFE

I was lucky, she finally had to work.
Thank you for providing such a useful tool, the same would also like to thank you for their selfless help.

I did not really help much, credits go to you for figuring out the nice permalinks =)
