    Hi All,

    I’ve ready through several of these topics but none seem to be able to fix my problem.

    I’ve just moved a website from a devleopment folder to the root directory to make it live.

    moved from ‘/dev/’ to just ‘/’ which is the root directory.

    I left the root directory index.php as is

    $system_path = './cms';

    and I changed the config.php from

    $config['cp_url'] = "http://www.mysite.com.au/dev/cms/index.php";

    to

    $config['cp_url'] = "http://www.mysite.com.au/cms/index.php";

    and the baseurl

    $config['base_url'] = "http://www.mysite.com.au/";

    instead of /dev/ on the end.


    But I’m still getting the Error

    “Your system folder path does not appear to be set correctly. Please open the following file and correct this: index.php”

    Any ideas?

    Running EE 2.1.3

    still having problems…

    I’ve implements the DRY principle files and configured them all as per instructions here: http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/php/apply-the-dry-principle-to-build-websites-with-expressionengine-2/

    Still getting the same error:

    Your system folder path does not appear to be set correctly. Please open the following file and correct this: index.php

    I’ve even done a search of all my code on the entire site to see if I could find something with ‘/dev’ but couldn’t find anything.

    Is there something I can try with the index.php file?

    Hi, chilli_group.

    What is in your config.php file? What’s in the index.php file? In other words, what did you change?

    Ok, I worked it out. (Feel pretty silly)

    When Transmit (FTP Progam) moved everything on the server, it missed moving the ‘codeigniter’ folder inside my system folder.

    So I re-uploaded it, and it all seemed to be working ok…

    Didn’t even think of checking that kind of stuff…

    Thanks for your help guys!!

    We’ve all had that happen to us one time or another.. Glad things are working again. Don’t hesitate to post again as needed.
