BuddyPress.org

I rolled back the database and the files to just prior to 1.5.4 upgrade and the site is back. Will be awaiting news to see if others have the same problem or how I might troubleshoot this particular issue; specifically: what might cause an upgrade to halt in the middle.

I’m trying to change the name field of extended profile. But it always shows the username instead. This didn’t happen on 1.5.1, but started right after I upgraded to 1.5.4.

I also tried selecting both yes and no a few times on the configuration where it asks to sync wordpress profile to buddypress, but this didn’t solve the problem yet.

Noting that it wants to go to `wp/members` rather than where the buddypress install and BP Compatibility configuration directions had me put that and its other folders (which was in `/wp/wp-content/themes/bp-default`), I copied all the bp-themes directories to where WordPress and the web server are looking for them… `/wp/members`.

The URL that appears in the browser is http://098.765.43.210/members/admin/activity/

That’s not exactly right, though, as the structure “admin/activity” isn’t even part of “members”. The error log reflects this (correctly) as:
`[Tue Mar 08 14:48:36 2011] [error] [client 123.456.789.0] File does not exist: /data01/home/username/production/wp/members/admin`

And so does the access log:
`123.456.789.0 – – [08/Mar/2011:14:48:36 +0000] “GET /members/admin/activity/ HTTP/1.1” 404 301`

So I truncate the URL in the address bar to be http://098.765.43.210/members and now I get a blank page. No source.

The access log now says:
`123.456.789.0 – – [08/Mar/2011:14:53:01 +0000] “GET /members/ HTTP/1.1” 200 -`

But the error log now says:
`[Tue Mar 08 14:53:01 2011] [error] [client 123.456.789.0] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_header() in /data01/home/username/production/wp/members/index.php on line 1`

I’m soooo totally baffled by all of this. I thought the BuddyPress installation instructions were pretty straightforward, but it seems to actually work in a whole different way from what is documented.

Here are example lines from my error log and access log (IP numbers obfuscated for security):

Error log:
`[Tue Mar 08 14:25:49 2011] [error] [client 123.456.789.0] File does not exist: /data01/home/username/production/wp/members, referer: http://098.765.43.210/`

Access log:
`123.456.789.0 – – [08/Mar/2011:14:25:49 +0000] “GET /members/admin/profile/ HTTP/1.1” 404 300`

With Permalinks set to “Month and Name”, a hit to the hello world blog post for this install generates the following error and access log entries:

Error log:
`[Tue Mar 08 14:38:48 2011] [error] [client 123.456.789.0] File does not exist: /data01/home/username/production/wp/2011, referer: http://098.765.43.210/`

Access log:
`123.456.789.0 – – [08/Mar/2011:14:38:48 +0000] “GET /2011/03/hello-world/ HTTP/1.1” 404 298`

Setting the Permalinks to “Day and Name” gives this:

Error log:
`[Tue Mar 08 14:35:02 2011] [error] [client 123.456.789.0] File does not exist: /data01/home/username/production/wp/2011, referer: http://098.765.43.210/`

Access log:
`123.456.789.0 – – [08/Mar/2011:14:35:02 +0000] “GET /2011/03/05/hello-world/ HTTP/1.1” 404 301`

@nit3watch It’s a CSS issue. Try something like this. Not tested in all browsers.

div#item-header #item-meta div.share-buttons-group {
position: absolute;
margin-top: 40px;
}

Though @boonebgorges should fix his plugin to fit nicely with header buttons instead of a line of text.

well i tried it costed me 4 hours, here is what you can start with on a centos 5.4

yum install cmake gcc-c++ boost flex bison libmysql libxml2 libmcrypt libicu libcap gd zlib tbb oniguruma curl-devel.x86_64 libevent

it will give you

No package tbb available.

No package oniguruma available.

No package libmysql available.

then u should go ahead and install this;

http://www.threadingbuildingblocks.org/documentation.php

and this

http://www.angry-fly.com/post.cfm/installing-git-on-centos-5

and still being unable to compile this stupid device.

on their documentation, it’s simple,

http://wiki.github.com/facebook/hiphop-php/building-and-installing

after all; you will get:

CMake Error: The source directory “/home/user/hiphop” does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.

according to facebook, it should have just worked.

maybe i should give it a try on Fedora. I give up for today.

sorry, vista and firefox 3.5.4

I did answer the questions, i event posted the details in the previous post.

MU 2.5.4

BP 1.1

I do not know what else to do,

Buddpress 1.0 works fine with no issues, have the issue with buddpress 1.1

I am willing to provide FTP access so you can see that some else needs to be done because it can not be done with the steps provided by you or in the readme file.

why do i feel like i am the only having this issue , yet if i look around there are others who are facing difficulties installing BP 1.1

I woudl like to see you do this and make it work as you noted without having to do any additional steps, do not be suprise if you reach the same results i did with a working homepage and broken inner pages.
