CMSimple - Forum

We are using CMSimple because our account with our provider (aruba.it) does not include mysql, but php is fine. CMSimple installation seems to work ok, I successfully updated it several times. However, when saving any page, the cmsimple installation "hangs". I mean, the saving process does not seem to finish and trying to load any other cmsimple page also takes forever. If I close the webbrowser, clean up cookies, etc, I can reload without problems.

Eventually, If I wait enough time, the modifications to the page are finally saved, but I cannot know without re-executing the webbrowser, which seems clearly not convenient.

PHP Versions is 5.2.12 running in Windows NT WEBS1156 5.2 build 3790 (Windows server 2003, it seems). I can dump phpinfo() here if it is necessary.

I could upgrade to Windows 2008, but it has its monetary costs. Thus, I would like to know if I can fix the problem with these software versions...

Hello,

I've never heard of such a problem, could you give me a link and CMSimple password per PM?

But if it is a serverside problem, I fear, you have to upgrade your more than 10 years old server software,

Gert

Hello,

thanks for the access.

I don't know, what's the reason. I noticed, that on any action (for example choose another page) an "index.php" is added to the adress line of the browser, that's not normal. Have you an index.html in the root folder?

Gert

I really don't know ... I don't understand, why the "index.php" appears in the address line of the browser, if you call a page.

Try to delete/rename the index.html and the subfolder "cmsimple" for testing,

Gert

I renamed index.html as index_new.html and CMSimple as cmsimple_new. Note that I did not rename index.php in cmsimple_new because you did not ask for it. The new URL is http://www.ccamalthea.com/cmsimple_new

The strange behavior did not change.

I also found that if I open a normal chrome tab and log into CMS in this tab while performing the modifications in incognito chrome windows the normal tab is not affected by the "hung", only the incognito windows are.

Thank you very much for your help, Gert. Sorry for the delays answering your requests.

Hello,

your pagedata.php is ANSI encoded and not up to date. Is this file writable?

Try to delete the pagedata.php, CMSimple should create a new one, or better upload the original content.htm and pagedata.php from the download,

Gert

PS: Your server is not able to handle utf-8. Go to phpinfo and search for "utf" - you will find nothing.

Please contact your provider or look for another one

You are right, I upgraded, but other problems arise.

Any suggestion about good hostings for cmsimple? I'm looking for something not too expensive...
