”Create Group” is not advancing to next page. Suspect APACHE redirect bug. (2 posts)

    An odd behavior cropped up when we moved our WP/BP install to a new server. At first, we were not able to upload avatars to be associated with groups. Then, after further research, we could not create groups either. The following screencast shows the behavior:

    http://screencast.com/t/4la4PnA8X

    We have taken the following steps and still the issue persists:

    1) Stripped out all plugins which enhance BP.

    2) Reverted to BP default theme (from our custom theme)

    Looking at our error logs yields this:

    [Sat Jun 04 08:46:13 2011] [error] File does not exist: /vol/sites/neoncon.com/dev/groups, referer: http://dev.neoncon.com/groups/
    [Sat Jun 04 08:46:21 2011] [error] File does not exist: /vol/sites/neoncon.com/dev/groups, referer: http://dev.neoncon.com/groups/create/step/group-details/

    So, I am beginning to suspect that we have a bug in our Apache config which is causing the page requests to be ignored. I’ve looked through our Apache configs and can see nothing which jumps out at me.

    Any ideas? Feel free to create an account on our dev site (dev.neoncon.com) if you want to poke around.

    Thanks,

    Doug

    The ‘cannot move to uploads’ is a server user/groups configuration issue, the server doesn’t have permission to create/write to dirs you may also have PHP safe mode running? or your sohusin config is causing issues.

    As for the these sorts of issues access to the server is required to fully understand and troubleshoot.

    btw it’s not a great idea to post up phpinfo info.
