Doesn't work at all - seems to be an issue with absolute paths

[ahupowerdns]

Hi,

html-writr appears to be exactly what I need, but I can't get it to work with either lighttpd or apache2. The issue appears to be that writr passes along 'file=/index.html' and that at least my PHP interprets that as /index.html relative to the filesystem, and not relative to the PHP directory or the HTML root.

This means that the checks for is_file fails, and editing doesn't work.

Any ideas on how to fix this? I know little of PHP, I suspect I need to tell PHP to work from the html root instead of the fs root..

Thanks!

hey,
the last known working version was as off https://github.com/html-writr/Html-Writr/tree/74f88b1f739655f6490b8d48e7cad9659a5a4641 Beyond that, its untested. Can you try the previous version?

Hi Jack,

Sorry to bother you with this, I am trying to do a clone at that specific
cs, any idea how I do that?

Again, sorry to bother you with basic git questions..

Thanks for your help Jack! This works better! However, when I 'save' a file
I edited, it gets replaced by a 0 byte file.

I do get this error:

[Mon Nov 28 08:01:38 2011] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] PHP Notice: Undefined
variable: dir in /var/www/Html-Writr/writr.php on line 60, referer:
http://127.0.0.1/Html-Writr/writr_edit.php?file=test.html

Permissions are all set to 'allow everything'.

Any idea?

no idea. Unfortunately, html writr isn't being actively developed by me any more, and I haven't experienced these problems myself, so I have no idea or time to fix it.
