There's a variable in Admin Interface -> Design -> Look and feel (IIRC, you'll find it anyway ;) which defines the URL to the installation. That should help you move it
I am really new to eZpublish so I realize I can move the whole filesystem but I don't know what ini file changes need to be made. I tried that in the beginning but wasn't able to get it to work.
I looked in Admin Interface -> Design -> Look and feel and all I found was the Site URL. Do you know how that should be formatted? Also now that I set that (it was ez.no) how do get the pages to start using it?
Go into Settings > Ini Settings > (Choose the view) > site.ini and you'll see more URL settings.
It is a good idea to clear the .ini cache after changing .ini settings.
If something goes wrong, you can go in with Linux and restore the previous .ini settings by copying back the ~ copy of the file (you'll see it in the directory listing - the filename has a ~ in it, and that is the previous settings). You can also edit the files manually - although you must be very careful.
I tried to use your configuration on a fresh installation of a 3.8 site (setup wizard). It works fine if I use http://example.com/mydir/index.php. But not for http://example.com/mydir/, the paths to design elements etc. are not right, they are not prepended with 'mydir'.
I'd like to drop the index.php from the URL. Is that possible?
When starting the setup wizard from http://example.com/mydir/, I can't get further then the welcome page.
Reason: the forums used in the setup wizard will post to /mydir (not: /mydir/ ), so I'll get back a 301 Moved Permanently response and I'm redirected to /mydir/.
Kåre, have I missed something? Is this config only meant to be used after initial setup, or is it a bug in the setup wizard?
