Thread

Greetings,

I had created cobblehillplayschool.com last year and until a few days ago, has been working quite well.
As of now, the site fails to link to the css and javascript files. The client hasn’t changed any configurations, and the host only made a routine backup, nothing else. I have below a part of the header:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="{stylesheet={w}/chp}" />
<style type='text/css' media='screen'>@import "{stylesheet={w}/chp}";</style>
{exp:jquery:script_tag}

About the site:

• The current version of ExpressionEngine is v2.1.0 Build 20110411
• htaccess file containing the following to remove index.php:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond $1 !\.(gif|jpe?g|png)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]

• Hosting by buyhttp

I’m not sure if this is enough information for the query, but I’m very thankful for any help I can get!

Hi, Brian.

What is {w} set to?

One thing I’m noticing is there is a disconnect between your version and build info. The version should say 2.1.3, not 2.1.0 if you have that build. Is your config.php writable? That’s the first thing I’d look at.

Your .htaccess looks fine to me, pretty generic for removing index.php?.

Add js and css to your list of extensions that aren’t processed by index.php:

RewriteCond $1 !\.(css|js|gif|jpe?g|png) [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

Hi Sue,
The config.php file is writable. I’ll try re-installing the version, I didn’t know the build and version numbers were off, though how it got so I have no idea.

Hi Nick, I updated the .htaccess file to no avail. I’ll see what happens with the version reinstallation.

Thanks! Will update soon.

Hey Brian,

Do you have any more information for us?

And thanks to Nick for lending a hand here!

Hello all,

I was able to update to the current version, and edited the .htaccess file according to Nick’s suggestion today.
Unfortunately the css and js are still broken. In addition, a curious thing has appeared, instead of providing the version and build numbers at the bottom of the backend’s EE Info, what appears instead is: running_current. The fine print still gives me the information, though:  v2.1.3 Build: 20110411.

Brain,

In addition, a curious thing has appeared, instead of providing the version and build numbers at the bottom of the backend’s EE Info, what appears instead is: running_current. The fine print still gives me the information, though:  v2.1.3 Build: 20110411.

The version and build in the very bottom of your control panel are what you are running. The EE Info just grabs current from ourselves. WE just released a new version of EE2.2 so that will take a couple of days to update

I notice you have temp css and js up there.

Can you create a separate template group just for testing please?
And in a test template add the original homepage

Can you then link that here please so we can see behaviour for ourselves?

I’m a bit behind, but I’ll move forward on John’s reply asap when I return Tuesday.
Thanks!

Great Brian! Just give us an update when you’re able to get back to it.

I have a similar issue as posted in this thread. When I leave the name of my site’s index page blank in the general configuration in the admin panel stylesheets linking doesn’t work anymore. If I enter index.php there the style sheet linking does work.

The htaccess file has the generic index.php removal code as found in the EE docs.

Hi, Brian. Any more news?

Sintra, let’s keep your issues in the thread you started. I suspect they may be related, but let’s let Brian have a chance to respond.

Greetings All,

Sorry for the delay, I’ve been backed-up with multiple projects, but I’m back to fix this one.

I have gone ahead and reverted the templates for our testing. the URL is cobblehillplayschool.com

Thanks!
Brian M.

Sue,
{w} is set to ‘welcome’ which is the template group name.

Hey Brian,

Bring us up to speed on where we are now. When I got to the site and view it, it looks like everything works, including CSS and JS. Could you describe the problems you’re still having?

Hi Kevin,

Over the past few days I’ve updated the EE installation to 2.2.2 and updated a couple of modules as well.

The problem I’m still having is that the CSS and JS links and unlinks alternately and simultaneously, seemingly at random.
I’ve attached a screenshot for reference.
