theme server is not working

Post by donpham »

The URL http://netmirror.org/mirror/serendipity ... mplate.xml (IP 188.40.113.17) could not be opened. Maybe the Serendipity or SourceForge.net Server is down - we are sorry, you need to try again later.

Borrowed from viewtopic.php?f=3&t=21178

go to "Plugins" in the "Settings" area of the backend menu, click on the "Event Plugins" button and look for the "Spartacus" plugin. Click on the configuration button (cockwheels icon) and change "File/Mirror location (XML metadata)" and "File/Mirror location (files)" to "github.com". Save your changes, and you're done.

I had the same issue with a new installation of 2.1.1 today.
Maybe you should add github.com as default.

I think that is being discussed. We're not sure if that's feasible with GitHub's bandwidth limitations.

It's done, AFAIR, but after the release of 2.1.1.

Hi,
I just installed s9y and everything is working as it should except for the themes server and maintenance. I can't find anything anywhere that suggests what I've done wrong. I tried the different servers and I get the same with everything - a blank page. I checked the error logs and they just say [DEBUG] Trying to open URL <a target="_blank" href="http://s9y.org/mirror/package_template. ... ate.xml</a>...
Any suggestions?

As it stands, I can't access the themes or maintenance. Both cause errors and give just a blank screen.

Thanks
Roger

Well I feel dumb! the problem was open_base restrictions in a apache.conf file. All is well. Thanks. I thought I should mention it to anyone else that might come across the same issue.
