Timeout/bad redirect on template installs!

Diana Notacat · July 26th, 2005, 05:29 PM

After installing the gallery with about half of my styles the templates aren't installing properly! It gets about halfway and then it times out... With firefox it never refreshes, and with Explorer it redirects to a "Page cannot be displayed".

I have 1 Default style and all the others are sub-styles. The templates ARE installed on the default style, but on only few of the others!

I DID try reinstalling the templates via the install script, but same timeout problem. I also tried switching one of the sub-styles as a default style and the templates still didn't install.

I've not been able to find a simple way to get around this yet, so a wee fix would be much appreciated!

How many styles do you have?

39 Counting the default style! (scary, yes!) I'm also stuck on very crappy dialup, so things don't refresh very fast for me.

(forgive the double post!)

Sokie, it is now a couple hours later and all the templates seem to magically be working! I'm assuming the styles needed to be rebuilt/resaved... or something obscure like that! (I was working on something else and needed to rebuild all the styles!)

There is still the problem with the install file though where it's not refreshing properly, though. Not a major issue, just pesky...

I've never heard of it having a problem like that. Incase you ever have a problem again though, an easy way to fix it would be to edit any template that has not been customized and save it. That will update your template cache and then you can go back and revert the template you just edited.
