New versions
Tonight I tried to enable new versions of Python and what’s related, including a new moinmoin version. It failed before but that was because things weren’t setup the right way. That is, I forgot to execute a commandfile. Today, I executed all lines that I already updated in the startup, and the VMS wiki now runs on MoinMojn 1.7.1 – without a problem.
Running the blogs on Wordpess 2.6.2 however failed. Even the basic version doesn’t work anymore:
Warning: main(/wp262/000000/wp-includes/class.wp-dependencies.php): failed to open stream: no such file or directory in /wp262/wp-includes/script-loader.php on line 3
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '/wp262/000000/wp-includes/class.wp-dependencies.php' (include_path='.:/php_root/000000') in /wp262/wp-includes/script-loader.php on line 3
However, the file ([wp-includes]class.wp-dependencies.php) does exist; even the file protection seems Ok: the directory and files have a mask of W:RE – like the 2.2.3 version. And it has worked before, so what’s the difference?
renaming the files to contain just one dot – replacing the first dot by underscore – and adapting the script-loader.php file accordingly solved the problem, but as stated: it did work before so why doesn’t it work no more? Appearently, something has been set – system wide – to disable this feature. Or parse-style is set to traditional for some reason…The server itself seems to have parse-style traditonal but both helper processes have it “extended’.
With this setting, I was able to move the blogs to 2.6.2, but it shouldn’t be needed in the first place. Asked the WASD mainling list…
After changing the version and executing the upgrade script, it turned out that 2.6.3 is available as well. and one of the admin panels fails; Something we need anyway; it might be the cause that the admin panel shows up very, very slowly…. Weird, again, since there wasn’t a problem before.
