Testing some stuff in a 1.6-alpha3, I realized serendipity.css is not generated on my localhost devblog. http://localhost/serendipity/serendipity.css doesn't exist, neither with my current test template nor BP or default. This is a fresh install, and I can't recall doing anything different or setting any config option different than in lots of S9y installs before. Permissions are correct, too.

Bug in 1.6-alpha3 or where do I start looking?

Hi!

Check rewrite rules, or maybe your server doesn'T support it and you should disable url rewriting?

Since /admin/ works perfectly fine, I guess it's safe to say rewriting works in general. Also, other CSS files included via serendipity_getFile work prefectly fine, as well as the newly added jQuery. It's only serendipity.css which isn't included correctly.

The passages of my .htaccess I consider to be relevant for this:

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /devblog/
[...]
RewriteRule ^(serendipity\.css|serendipity_admin\.css) index.php?url=/$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^index\.(html?|php.+) index.php?url=index.html [L,QSA]
[...]
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !-U
RewriteRule (.*\.html?) index.php?url=/$1 [L,QSA]

Or do you need the complete .htaccess?

Keeps getting better. I just now updated to the latest svn snapshot. After uploading the files, logging into the backend or accessing the frontend gives me:

Code: Select all

Fatal error: Call to undefined method Smarty::setDeprecationNotices() in /var/www/devblog/include/functions_smarty.inc.php on line 923

Hi!

The smarty thing is now fixed. Its code that will be required for smarty3 migration and currently in the works

About the CSS thing. That's quite strange. The change was committed due to this thread:

viewtopic.php?f=4&t=16668&start=15&hilit=serendipity.css+rewrite

you might want to try to rever the change and add the $ back at the end of the rule and see if that works? Whats your current setup for apache etc? We might be able to turn RewriteLog on for you to see what's happening...

Hi!

Also, you might want to try to open index.php?url=/serendipity.css to see if that generates the CSS for you? Because that's what the redirect should actually do... (like http://blog.koehntopp.de/index.php?url=/serendipity.css)

Yes, it does.

Yes, it does.

If you still need that, could you please be a little more specific? I have no idea what setup info you might refer to.

Wasn't there a problem with a german webhoster with serendipity.css? 1&1 I think? There was only a char at the beginning to change or so.

Yes, I referred to that already. YellowLED has this change active, and now on his setup it doesn't work anymore. So if he adds the $ back again (which we removed) it breaks for him.

Well, I don't understand this.

Well, I don't understand this.

I'm not an expert on .htaccess or RegExps, but shouldn't this:

Code: Select all

RewriteRule ^(serendipity\.css|serendipity_admin\.css) index.php?url=/$1 [L,QSA]

target serendipity.css.php as well while the same rule with a $ at the end only targets serendipity.css? Maybe that's causing the issue?

Hi!

Exactly, and I don't know why mod_rewrite behaves like this. Maybe you can raise RewriteLogLevel 9 and set RewriteLog to see what the rule chain looks like?

Maybe this:

Code: Select all

RewriteRule ^(serendipity\.css|serendipity_admin\.css).* index.php?url=/$1 [L,QSA]

could also work?

Nope, doesn't use the serendipity.css with this rule. I'm gonna need some time to figure out how to raise the log level.

So at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/691134/rewrite.log.txt you find a copy of my rewrite.log, log level 9, already grepped for "css" to make it shorter. The first lines are with the dollar sign at the end, the later line without it.

Hope this helps. If not: Tell me what you need.

Hi!

Hm, I don't really understand the log; what I read there, serendipity.css does properly get rewritten to index.php?url=/serendipity.css.php...

I also tested it on my blog, the rewrite thing works here flawlessly. Running Apache/2.2.16 (Debian) mit the modules: mod_status.c, mod_ssl.c, mod_setenvif.c, mod_rewrite.c, mod_reqtimeout.c, mod_php5.c, mod_negotiation.c, mod_mime.c, mod_info.c,
