Hm. Yes, my server allows .htaccess files. It's a fairly standard shared hosting AMP install, apart from the MariaDB.

This is the .htaccess file in the css folder:

Code: [Select]
<Files *.php>
Deny from all
</Files>

<Files index.php>
Allow from all
</Files>

<IfModule mod_mime.c>
AddEncoding x-gzip .gz
AddEncoding x-gzip .cgz
AddEncoding x-gzip .jgz
<FilesMatch "\.(js\.gz|jgz)$">
ForceType text/javascript
</FilesMatch>
<FilesMatch "\.(css\.gz|cgz)$">
ForceType text/css
</FilesMatch>
</IfModule>

<IfModule mod_headers.c>
Header set Cache-Control "max-age=2592000"
Header set Expires "Thu, 21 March 2025 03:42:00 GMT"
Header set Vary "Accept-Encoding"
</IfModule>

FileETag none

This is my root .htaccess (i keep software in subdirectories of this folder):

Code: [Select]
Options -MultiViews +FollowSymlinks -Indexes
<IfModule mod_security.c>
# Turn off mod_security filtering.
SecFilterEngine Off

# The below probably isn't needed, but better safe than sorry.
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>

DirectoryIndex index.php portal.php index.xhtml

ExpiresActive On

ExpiresByType image/gif A2592000
ExpiresByType image/png A2592000
ExpiresByType image/jpg A2592000

ExpiresByType application/x-javascript A2592000
ExpiresByType text/plain A2592000

Try deleting all of wedge's htaccess files first. Can you then access the CSS.gz file directly?
If not, try deleting the root one. If it doesn't work it's probably a perm issue. If it works, reupload the htaccess and try to delete small sections of it until you find which one crashes it.

Installation went smooth - but i also had to disable that 'compress files' option for proper display.

I see the following error in my just installed forum:

That's an interesting one.[1]
However, I can't make anything of your error log until your enable debugging in the Admin > Server > Debugging menu. This will disable PHP minification, and thus give us proper lines for the errors.
I could probably find the array_combine error, but there are too many array_merge's in there.

Re: importer

It's up and running; as I told Pandos in private, I fixed the importer to work on the latest version.
Unfortunately, I'm a bit in a hurry IRL, and will have to postpone everything by a couple of hours.
I'll try to (1) fix a minor bug in the importer, and (2) actually upload it somewhere, before I go to bed.
 1. Apart from the fact that I thought it'd take longer to get lurkers to subscribe, post their first message and just get straight to the point... No nuthin'?

First of all, congrats on this release! It sure looks like the work of two PHP gurus, hope this goes on and on. It looks quite promising, can't compare it to 2.1 yet because I haven't even take a peek at it.

Second, I got the same error @Farjo did and I also get this in the error log:

URL http://localhost:85/wedge/index.php
8: Undefined offset: 0
C:/wamp/www/wedge/gz/app/Subs-BoardIndex.php
Line: 25

I also get random "Unable to load the "Settings.english" language file." when I use the Wine theme.

Other than that, I'm quite fonding what you two achieved. Well done and congratulations!

I tried it again on my localhost and go the same message. However it works on my web space.

So the files are good, it's just my local zend that's got the issue. I don't know what info. you'd need (or probably where to find it).  It's the free version, I installed it in July 2013 and have never upgraded it as I cannot work out how. The only app is phpMyAdmin 3.

Thanks! Technically it's not a release, though... The long awaited Alpha 3 is coming this week, but I'm only releasing it once all server installation issues are solved.

Yeah, I'm hoping that the more skilled users will take an interest in looking at the source code, and see how awesome it is.

For me, personally:
- Class-Skeleton.php, because (1) it's my first attempt at doing pure OOP programming, (2) the skeleton system is VASTLY superior to SMF's layer system.
- Subs-Cache.php, which has so many cool features.
- Class-CSS.php, and its wonderfully obfuscated code. Even I have some trouble reviewing it, from time to time, ah ah.
- script.js, gives you an idea of the amount of work that went behind rewriting SMF JavaScript code. I didn't simply integrate jQuery deeply into it -- I used all of my JavaScript knowledge to make the script as smooth, fast and short as possible. It's optimized *to the byte*. sbox.js is also an interesting piece of JS, in that it is superior to all the competition (jQuery plugins for select box replacements), and does it in *half the size* of the closest 'optimized' competitor (about 2KB gzipped). Again, a lot of work went into this.

For Pete -- I have to say, I think he would like to show off his ban code. Or perhaps his plugin code. He put many months of work into both of these, and it was all very carefully planned ahead. I'm pretty sure he'll push the SMF team into allowing these bits to make their way into SMF 3.0. In a few years time, then...

Pete has been putting a lot of work into SMF 2.1, too. Sometimes I'll have a look at a list of his commits, pick a random one, and see that he's taken one of his Wedge commits, or ideas, and put it straight into SMF 2.1. It's a bit strange, considering he disavowed Wedge after leaving us. Is he trying to disavow SMF, too? :^^;:
Anyway...

Last year, Pete posted a quick list of features from Wedge that aren't in SMF. (Yes, because he loved SMF and wanted to rejoin them. I'm confused right now.)
http://wedge.org/pub/smf/8175/smf-with-a-different-name-huh/
Of course, many more features were added since then.
I'm pretty positive that despite having talented people in its team (shout out to Suki), SMF has no way to catch up with Wedge, because by the time it does, Wedge will still be more advanced, because I'll be busy catching up with myself.

I'd recommend you compare Wedge with Elk instead. Apart from the silly name, it's better than SMF in every respect.

Please make sure you enable debug mode in Admin > Server > Debugging (which disabled PHP minification) before you post error logs. Line numbers are useless to me if the file is minified.

Okay, I'll just disable this feature in my next commit. During alpha testing, it's unwise to make debugging harder by default... :^^;:

Isn't this not because of the Wine skin (not theme!), but because you're browsing through the Theme parts of the Admin area?
I should have specified: the Theme handling code is STILL in Wedge, but it will eventually go. It does NOT work, obviously, because themes themselves don't exist anymore. I just thought that you guys would rather have Wedge earlier, than wait for me to clean everything up and make it look like themes never were here to begin with.

I'll make sure to pass it along to Pete. (Well, of course I won't, but I'm sure he's reading.)

Um... I probably knew in July but have forgotten now. It says it is Zend Server version 6.1.0. It's running on this laptop which is running Windows 8.1. On the laptop's hard disk it has Apache2, MySQL55 and ZendServer folders.

Does that answer the question? If not I can follow instructions to find out more. And is it important given that it works on my web space?

I don't know. I just want to avoid having to do any boring tech support in the future. This single-handedly killed my enthusiasm in working on Kyodai Mahjongg back in 2006, and there's no reason to think I've changed.

Technically, Wedge is only officially supported on Apache, so you should disable ZendServer if you can, and enable Apache instead.

Well done. On my test VM, extracting the file, the permissions weren't set so I had to set everything to 644/777, afterwards I then experienced issues with the wedge installer being "unthemed" (like in Norodo's pic), managed to get that installed anyway. Then I browsed to my profile to fix the theme problem. Going to admin, I get many file writing related problem, this all points to /gz/keys/ directory, I then fixed that directory to be writable. I'll do further testing here and figure out the problem with installing on my VM. This uses
MySQL version 5.5.33, PHP version 5.5.7-1~dotdeb.1, Apache/2.2.22 (Debian)



Now for my test-remote server that is not hosted on my computer (Free hosting service.) Uploading to my webhost, installing, no problems, it installed flawlessly. No theme problems too. This hosts uses:
MySQL version 5.1.71, PHP version 5.4.17, Apache version 2.2.24, Linux 2.6.32-358.23.2.el6.bl1.1.1_1.x86_64
(x10hosting uses litespeed for webserver.)

Nothing is more despicable than respect based on fear.

Well. I downloaded the zip file and uploaded to my server. There was no install.php in the root. Found it in the install directory. Tried to install from /install/install.php. This caused errors  about not finding certain directories. Copied all files from from /install to root /. Ran the install again and  everything installed without error. Deleted install.php from root and deleted the /install directory.

So far Wedge is installed on one of my sub-domains, wedge.helmer.co. Looking forward to the next release.

As indicated in the readme.
Why does nobody read readme files..?
It even shows up in second position in the paragraph list.
http://github.com/Wedge/wedge/
There it is. Second paragraph. Installation. Mentions every step to follow.
The alpha package will ship with all install/ files in the root by default, but for the pre-alpha, I'm expecting people to at least read the readme... :whistle:
