1. Is going to http://mysite.com/midgard/midcom-admin/ the
correct way to determine if the install is good ?
midcom-admin doesn't exist any more AFAIK, I would suggest a
two-level approach: First check mysite/spider-admin, this will tell
you if Midgard is running ok, next try mysite/__mfa/asgard/, which
should give you access to the new management interface.
mysite/midcom-exec-midcom/config-test.php can also be informative,
it tests some settings needed by MidCOM
/spider-admin comes up just fine as does the site I'm trying to
replicate in the first place. Both __mfa/asgard/ and
midcom-exec-midcom/config-test.php are returning 404s.
Just to clarify: There needs to be a host defined and set up for
MidCOM in order for this to work. In a fresh DB, the recommended way
is AFAIK to set up a new site with sitewizard (although I have to add
that personally, I was never able to persuade it to produce any
working site, and have always resorted to copying the needed elements
from already working sites).
Well, I can go to /midgard, where I initially get "Site Initialization
missing". I click on Proceed to Initialization and that seems to go
just fine. Then I click
on "Back to Site Administration", which brings me to the "MidCOM CMS
Site Administration" screen. It is when I click on the "Content
Authoring and
Site Administration" link (/midgard/midcom-admin/ais/) that I see the
error in my log about midcom.admin.content.
Maybe I am completely in the wrong place. /midgard was pretty much the
only entry in the host table (other than my sites). Though I just also
found that there
is a host for /midgard-sitewizard. When I try to access this page, I
get the following error:
PHP Fatal error: Class 'midcom_baseclasses_components_request_admin'
not found in
/usr/share/pear/midcom/lib/midgard/admin/sitewizard/admin.php on line 16
If I do end up needing to manually add the host records, how will I know
what root and style to use ? What are the names of the site and style
in midgard itself. I can
use Aegir to find them and grab the IDs.
But if I understood your post correctly, you have a running midcom
site under http://url, right? If you login (with
http://url/midcom-login-), do you see the toolbar?
/midcom-login gives me a 404. /midgard/midcom-login take me through the
same initialization stuff I mentioned above. No toolbar.
BTW: You mentioned that you upgraded from 2.4 originally. Did you run
the upgrade script (called migrate_26.php in the support folder)? I
remember it took me something like three weeks to figure all the
details out, so I'm kind of surprised (and jealous :-) to hear the
conversion went so smoothly for you (underlying theory: Is the site
maybe still running 2.4 without telling you for some reason? Do you
see the version number somewhere in the rendered output, like f.x. in
the meta tag generator in html head?).
I did not explicitly run midgard_26.php. Would that have been called
when I ran the update option in datagard ?
2. How can I go about cleaning up the mess that I now have on my
hands ? Is there a way to uninstall MidCOM and
then do a clean install ?
With pear packages you have pear uninstall, but other stuff has to
be cleaned manually I guess (but I don't think it would interfere
with your install to keep the files around. I might be wrong,
though...)
That's what I was wondering about, will doing a pear uninstall be
sufficient ? In particular, is there stuff in the midgard database
itself that would need to be cleaned out ?
Below this reply is a list of all of the current midcom packages I
have installed. Would I want to remove and re-install ALL of them ?
Or remove them all and then use
datagard to do the re-install ?
Again, my experience with Midgard/MidCOM wizards was not the best so
far, instead I usually follow this:
http://blogs.nemein.com/people/piotras/view/midgard-1-8---pear-issues-on-debian-stable.html
for installation (it's a bit dated now, but mostly still valid). The
-f switch on the pear command line overwrites the installed package,
so you shouldn't have to uninstall them first manually.
Thanks, I'll give this a try.

Bye,

3. Maybe the most important question of all: Will MidCOM
replicate all Midgard elements (pages, styles, snippets ) or
just MidCOM components ?
I tested it just briefly (I'll have to implement it for a site next
month, and I'm already having nightmares about that), but as far as
I can tell, everything is replicated.
That's a relief !!
Thanks very much for your help.
Martin
Bye, and good luck!
