All I get is COMING SOON

[Anonymous]

The installation was a breeze, but now I'm having problems actually viewing the site. I can view the images and the thumbnails in their respective folders, but the main site continues to says COMING SOON. Also, any changes I make to the title isn't reflected on my site, either. It just has the URL at the top. Help?

Here is my general info:

Host information

PHP-version 4.3.10

MySQL version 4.0.23-standard

GD-lib bundled (2.0.28 compatible)

Server software Apache/1.3.33 (Unix) mod_auth_passthrough/1.8 mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 PHP/4.3.10 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 mod_ssl/2.8.22 OpenSSL/0.9.6b

EXIF Your php does not seem to be compiled with exif-enabled.

Permissions

I says comming soon when there is no image in the DB. Did you publish something? Is your server's date ok? did you publish for the same day or tomorrow or the next day?

if you are familiar with the databases check your pixelpost_pixelpost table and tell us what you see there. but I'm quite sure that noting is published successfully if the date is ok.

I got it to work! I found another poster who had the same problem and the solution offered was deleting lines 116-119 from the main index.php. There was no follow-up from the original poster so I wasn't sure if it would work for me or not, but I tried it anyway and voila, it worked.

could you please provide the link to the thead you read this tip?
I think you deleted the lines
$row = mysql_fetch_array($query);
if(!$row['image']) {
echo "Coming Soon!";
exit;
}

where it check if there is an image in the database!

That's not exactly a fix, it's erasing the problem!

Here is the thread where I read the tip: http://www.pixelpost.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=171

Should I put the lines back and try to find another way around the problem?

ok. That was pixelpunk. Sure it's a temporary solution. I think something's wrong out there.

make a php file with the code
<?php require("admin/pixelpost.php");




/* start up mysql */
mysql_connect($pixelpost_db_host, $pixelpost_db_user, $pixelpost_db_pass) || die("Error: ". mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($pixelpost_db_pixelpost) || die("Error: ". mysql_error());
echo 'Reporting enteries in pixelpost DB >> Table pixelpost';
echo '<hr>';
if($query = mysql_query("select * from ".$pixelpost_db_prefix."pixelpost")) {
while(list($id,$datetime,$headline,$body,$image,$c ategory) = mysql_fetch_row($query)) {
//$name = pullout($name);
echo 'id is: ' .$id.' date: '.$datetime.' Topic: '.$headline.'<br /> Image note: '
.$body .'<br / > Image address: ' .$image.'<br /> Category:' .$category;
echo '<br / >';
echo '<hr>';
}

}
?>
and place it in you photoblog main folder. then open this php file in the browser and copy paste what you see in a reply to this post. This will report the contents of your db for images. (it does not show your password anyway . password is saved in the table pixelpost_config but this shows the content of pixepost_pixelpost table which saves the photoblog posts contents.)

it should be something like this
Reporting enteries in pixelpost DB >> Table pixelpost
