Site settings could not be loaded

We were unable to locate the API to request site settings. Please see below for debugging information.

HTTP Response Status Code: 400


What could have changed?

[crb]

Anything!

What does the API log say?
What does it say when you hit http://site/@api/deki?

[roadzy]

when i go to @api/deki i get "Bad Request (Invalid Hostname)" i'm thinking instead of 127.0.0.1 i've changed a few files to the ip. What files should i look at to confirm all IPs are not 127 but instead the ip.

[crb]

Yeah, if you hard-code the IP address, you can't access with any IP but that one.

[roadzy]

do you have any suggestions of files i should look for that would have the ip listed in it?

[crb]

LocalSettings.php has the hostname of the API in it.

[roadzy]

I turned on debuging and have attached the output...I think the problem is the one line that says localhost. Where do I need to change that to the ip? also i just changed the first 3 octets in the IPs to x's.

[crb]

Are you running Dream from the batch file (if so, it's in there?) ISTR you running from IIS, in which case I don't see that it will only listen on localhost, I guess it listens on whatever IP/s you have it in a web server for.

[roadzy]

yea i'm running it from the batch file and its running apache

[crb]

OK, so what does your batch file say, and what does your ProxyPass line say in your Apache config?

(Sorry, I help a lot of people out and get them mixed up at times. :))

i decided due to the vulnerability found, I upgraded to 9.08.3....

well i tried following this page Link (http://developer.mindtouch.com/Official_MindTouch_Installation_Guides/Upgrading_MindTouch_9.08_%28source%29)

just tried to load the wiki page... got the default first time install page... what file(s) did i miss? i backed up the directory before i upgraded

I was sort of hoping upgrading might fix my problem haha

Update: Nevermind i found the missing file... still doesn't work...

I've attached some new files...

[crb]

If you don't have a LocalSettings.php you might get sent to that config/ page? You would at the least need to restore that.

[roadzy]

yea i added it back and that fixed it...

i ran php update-db.php


and /@api/deki/@about worked...

/@api/deki works too

I still get when i go to the wiki...

Site settings could not be loaded

We were unable to locate the API to request site settings. Please see below for debugging information.

You could try hard-coding the location of the API with $wgDreamServer in LocalSettings.php?

[roadzy]

Where should the localsetting.php file be located that it loads? I found 3 of them?

C:\deki
C:\deki\web
C:\deki\web\config

While i was typing this i changed the $wgDreamServer to the other ip on the server and it now works. Should that file be in 1 or all 3 of those locations?

[crb]

You should only have one, in c:\deki\web. The one in config\ should have been moved out after the installation.

[roadzy]

gotcha! thanks! now on to single sign on... i posted some config files in the ldap forum... if anyone can help with that also, that would be awesome thnx

[roadzy]

talk about feeling stupid... so i had this working and the people I set it up for are finally getting ready to use it... i load it up and doesn't work?!!?

I reread through this thread and it sounds like the same thing yet I DIDN"T CHANGE ANYTHING!?!?!? So here is my deal..

I am getting Site settings could not be loaded. We were unable to locate the api to request site settings. Please see below for debugging information. HTTP Response Status Code: 400.

So i go to http://wiki.site.com/@api/deki/about

And it doesn't load so I know it has something to do with the api. I did a netstat and it is listening on the right port and waiting. Thoughts?

So I decided to upgrade to v10... new message "Site Settings could not be loaded. We were unable to locate the api to request site settings. Please see below for debugging information. If this is a new install try refreshing - the API is simply taking its time loading up! HTTP Response Status Code: 0 couldn't connect to host."

The Dream Host APIKEY is shown at the top of the mindtouch.host.exe when ran. It changes every time I run it?

Just decided to start a new thread:
