Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: 503 "Service Not Available" pages popping upOh, so sorry for forgetting that:
Sorry for taking so long to reply.
Yes, I have reviewed that page…and it is helpful, but only to a point. It covers well moving a Multisite network between domains, but what I want to do is clone my live network over a local server using XAMPP. Is it really that simple as copying the files and databases?
My new Multisite network is in the /rgclubnetajk subfolder (under /public_html). My original networks are in the /RGClubNetwork and /AJK-Multisite subfolders. Sorry for the confusion, again.
It may be a moot point now, since the fix for #27866 has now been released, and could be integrated into the 3.9.1 update as early as today. Still, could use a resolution of my issue with attachments.
OOPS…I thought that I responded via email, but it somehow didn’t take. Trying again…
No, I simply transferred to an entirely new subdirectory (“/rgclubnetajk”) rather than lowercasing my old directory. I didn’t want to do anything with my original subdirectory until #27866 was resolved. I simply copied everything to my new subdirectory for testing purposes and as a standby/backup until my old directory was restored. Sorry for the confusion.
Thanks for your help, Ipstenu.
I used Search and Replace to change the URL values in my database tables of my new install, and everything went almost perfectly.
I say ALMOST, because the only flaw is that my attachment image files somehow don’t render at my new location. I can still edit the images using the “Edit Image” application, but they don’t show up on the finished blog. Only a string link shows up, and not even the thumbnails are rendering correctly.
Link to a screenshot of what I’m talking about:

I did copy my blogs.dir directory containing all my old attachment images over from the other RGClubNetwork subdirectory to my new one.
So…anything I could do to finally resolve this? Or, should this be a new ticket?

In reply to: 3.9 update install breaks if network path has uppercase lettersRevisiting this for an inquiry:
While I wait for Core to resolve this for their next 3.9.1 update, is there any way I can perform a temporary fix to access my network blogs until then? Would it be possible for me to either change the path name to lowercase or tweak the wp-settings.php file so that my blogs and admin pages could be accessible again?

In reply to: 3.9 update install breaks if network path has uppercase lettersAlso, I apologize for the misleading headline…I wish I had the power to change it to something more accurate now.

In reply to: 3.9 update install breaks if network path has uppercase lettersWell…it is confirmed; it is a bug in WP Multisite involving uppercase letters in the relative path. Core Trac is on the case.

In reply to: 3.9 update install breaks if network path has uppercase lettersAnother thing I’ve noticed: I downloaded a copy of the existing database file associated with my Red Garter Club network, “ajk6319_wrdp2.sql”, and then unzipped it, and found that only the tables prefixed with “wp_10_” were written in. None of the other tables for the other blogs were transfered over. More than likely, they weren’t transfered in the process of the update. All of the tables, though, are still accessible via phpmyadmin.

In reply to: 3.9 update install breaks if network path has uppercase lettersDavid got it exactly correct….that’s what I’ve been experiencing. Everything (front end and admin) goes to the “root” blog of the network, even though the URL of the site is the sought after subblog in the network.
So, this looks more like an issue of the latest WP 3.9 update more than anything else.
Forum: Networking WordPress
In reply to: 3.9 update install breaks if network path has uppercase lettersNew update…and some good news.
I was finally able to access the full databases via phpmyadmin, and they are all intact. However, it looks like the prefixes for the database tables might have been altered a bit, because I’m seeing some tables prefixed with “wp_” and others prefixed with “wp_10_”. Also, I noted that in my internal files of my “RGClubNetwork” folder under the “blogs.dir” directory, the initial subfolder listing actually had “10” rather than “1” as the first subfolder listed. Also, the “blogs.dir” directory for my “AJK-Multisite” directory has the subfolders for the network blogs listed starting with “2” rather than “1”.
Hopefully, that helps resolve this issue. Or, so I hope.

In reply to: 3.9 update install breaks if network path has uppercase lettersHere is a cache of one of my network blogs as it is supposed to appear:
And this is the page I am getting now when I attempt to access any of my network blogs:
http://redgarterclub.com/RGClubNetwork/rgclub3dot2/
This is the original blank home network blog I used to prime my blog network; it isn’t supposed to contain any posts. My main blog should be Red Garter Club 3.2, and it had posts up until April 7th.
In addition…I went into my WP file manager, and found that the network blog listing had been modified so that the first blog folder showing was marked as “10” rather than “1”. Is that supposed to be the correct order? I changed the “10” to a “1” and resaved the folder name; that didn’t change anything. Would that have anything to do with what happened?
I could simply use my cached version to rewrite my posts, but that would be time consuming, and I’d really would like my blog network fixed first. Any help would be greatly appreciated…thanks.

In reply to: 3.9 update install breaks if network path has uppercase lettersOK…I’m beginning to see things a bit clearer. The databases are intact, but it seem like whenever I attempt to get to any of my blogs within my network, I get redirected to the home page or the admin page of the first blog listed in my network, as well as a “Page not found” notice. That happens whatever blog page I attempt to access.
Forum: Networking WordPress
In reply to: 3.9 update install breaks if network path has uppercase lettersI upgraded manually through the Upgrade function at my main admin page, and then the individual blogs through “Update Network”.
All of my plugins seem to have gotten through unscathed…though I will double check.
