I installed Typo 5.0.3 as per the instructions found at http://bartgdev.com/articles/2006/08/07/installing... In a nutshell: 1) wgot the tar, unpacked it under ~/ruby/typo 2) Created a symlink from my public_html dir to the typo install dir 3) Set up the db, updated my database.yml 4) Configured my environment.rb and .htaccess to production 5) Installed a couple extra gems; theme-support and theme-generator. 6) Ran public/dispatch.fcgi from my app root, which displays... Liquid doesn't seem to be loaded... uninitialized constant Liquid Status: 500 Internal Server Error Content-Type: text/html <html><body><h1>500 Internal Server Error</h1></body></html>levitat1@levitated.org [~/ruby/typo-5.0.3]# --- I get the following error in my log (The nil:NilClass is a reference to a var called "this_blog" on both traces.): #

It seems like "this_blog" is not being initialized on start-up, but I haven't the slightest idea why. Also, I have no idea what the message "Liquid doesn't seem to be loaded... uninitialized constant Liquid"...any ideas on this? I have googled around but cannot find any good leads. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thanks! Randy

Did you add: AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi to your .htaccess file in your public folder? The standard: AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi doesn't seem to work with bluehost.
on 2008-04-06 21:46
Brad, thank you very much for your prompt reply. I just made the tweak
you suggested, but it seems to have no effect. What follows is my
.htaccess file:
# General Apache options
#AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
#Options +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI
SetEnv RAILS_ENV production
# If you don't want Rails to look in certain directories,
# use the following rewrite rules so that Apache won't rewrite certain
requests
#
# Example:
# RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/notrails.*
# RewriteRule .* - [L]
# Redirect all requests not available on the filesystem to Rails
RewriteEngine On
# If Typo is accessed via an Alias directive, then you MUST also set
# the RewriteBase in this htaccess file.
#
# Example:
# Alias /blog /path/to/typo/public
# RewriteBase /blog
RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA]
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)/!$ $1.html [QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]
# In case Typo experiences terminal errors
# Instead of displaying this message you can supply a file here which
will be rendered instead
#
# Example:
# ErrorDocument 500 /500.html
ErrorDocument 500 "<h2>Application error</h2>Typo failed to start
properly"

Thanks again. I had tried that as well, I changed the perms on typo/public and typo/log. I was able to get typo running in under 10 minutes on my local machine, I am wondering if it some sort of gem version compatibility issue? x@x.org [~/ruby/typo-5.0.3]# ruby -v ruby 1.8.6 (2007-09-23 patchlevel 110) [x86_64-linux] x@x.org [~/ruby/typo-5.0.3]# rails -v Rails 2.0.2 x@x.org [~/ruby/typo-5.0.3]# gem -v 1.0.1 x@x.org [~/ruby/typo-5.0.3]# gem list *** LOCAL GEMS *** actionmailer (2.0.2, 1.3.6, 1.2.5) actionpack (2.0.2, 1.13.6, 1.12.5) actionwebservice (1.2.6, 1.1.6) activerecord (2.0.2, 1.15.6, 1.14.4) activeresource (2.0.2) activesupport (2.0.2, 1.4.4, 1.4.0, 1.3.1) cgi_multipart_eof_fix (2.5.0) daemons (1.0.9, 1.0.2) fastthread (1.0.1) fcgi (0.8.7) gem_plugin (0.2.3, 0.2.1) login_generator (1.2.2) mongrel (1.1.3, 0.3.13.4) mongrel_cluster (1.0.5) mysql (2.7) rails (2.0.2, 1.2.6, 1.1.6) rake (0.8.1, 0.7.1) RedCloth (3.0.4) rmagick (1.15.13, 1.15.12) sources (0.0.1) sqlite3-ruby (1.2.1) theme_generator (1.3.0) tzinfo (0.3.3)

If you want to install the Typo gem you'll need to edit your .bashrc file (in your root directory), add the following to the end of the file: export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/packages/bin:$HOME/.gems/bin" export GEM_HOME="$HOME/.gems" export GEM_PATH="$GEM_HOME:/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8" export GEM_CACHE="$GEM_HOME/cache" Then run from the command line: source ~/.bashrc Then you should be able to install all gems: gem update -y and install the Typo gem: gem install -y typo I've been able to get typo running, but I'm having trouble with the RSS feeds myself, so I'm interested to see if you'll have any better luck!

ok... maybe I will try this next. I will back everything out and start from scratch with the gem. Thanks, and I will let you know what happens.

Hello, For your information, Typo 5.0.3 doesn't come as a gem since it seems to break everything (never managed to figure out why, and we really had to release 5.0.3 as it fixed lots of critical bugs). I Hope I ll be able to release a 5.0.4 gem.

Ok, thats good to know. Did anything in the details of my problem below illicit any ideas as to what could be the problem? Please take a quick look at my trace and see if you could give me any leads on where to start for a solution. On another note, this i not the first time I have had problems getting an open source ruby app running correctly on bluehost. Does anyone have any recommendations on a ruby host that is a less of a pain in the neck? Thanks, Randy

That 2006 article is too old. I just write a new article about this, you can find all the details on my blog: http://typo.eeacsite.com/. Hope it will be helpful.
