Help Wanted: Getting SourceForge clone site back online - pay involved

[jgoewert]

Ok, I run a project hosting site at http://eve-corp.com for a small group of developers that make projects using the Irrlicht 3D engine (http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net). The hosting is absolutely free and I don't even recieve donations. It's just an alternate location for people who want SF like controls without making their project Open Source.

I've been trying to install about every SourceForge clone under the sun onto it, with limited success.

A few, novellforge, gforge, alexandria, savannah, gborg, etc... were overpowered and I believe needed pieces that I couldn't run on the server I'm using. They may work, but I start getting hung up on stuff like configuring SSL and LDAP.

myXoopsforge 1.05RC and Xoops 2.0.X would load, but half the functional pages would spit out php errors that I couldn't decifer and no one on the forums for these projects responded to the bug reports. You can see my last attempt to get it running at http://www.eve-corp.com/index.php. To get to one of the many errors, go to "New Project" and follow it to the end. Login and PW are "guest".

I got Xoopsforge 2.07 running on Xoops 1.06, but after a month of working, it just broke. I backed up the database, tried fresh loads to no avail. There are no errors being logged, so I have no clue where to even start debugging. The authors who created this abandoned it 2 years ago to make myXoopsForge, and myXF hasn't had a replied to email since May of this year. Also, the sites for it are scattered all over and most are in German.

So, here is the deal. I will pay $50 US (Via PayPal preferably) to someone who will get any Sourceforge clone to run on my webserver. CVS does not have to work, but it would be nice to have. (Xoopsforge didn't have CVS and I was happy with it.) I figured I'd start with a [H] member and if no one feels like helping, put it somewhere else.

A few things to note:
The website is hosted on a machine that I don't have direct access to, so there is limited access. It has the latest PHP installed as well as other frameworks. This is why I was trying out all the PHP based SF-clones. However, the owner of the server will install almost any stable application on there if needed. Also, I do have a shell account to perform limited configuration.

Thanks.

Well, there's a coupla things to try. First and foremost, get that godawful banner off the page any way you can. Second, try uninstalling all the php-type things except the one that was working. They can't be helping. Last thing I can think of, check line 29 and look for that variable elsewhere. See what it's defined as, and what script calls what.
It looks from the code below that only 2 variables are missing, so maybe it'll be simple to fix once you RTFS. Sorry if I'm talking n00b to you, but the small stuff helps.

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/evecorp/public_html/header.php on line 138

Already done and tried all of that.
I have installed and re-installed this system and multiple versions of xoops/xoopsforge about... somewhere in the range of 30+ times.

Also, the error being displayed isn't with the xoopsConfig per say, it's due to another error in some other php embedded is erroring, so the xoopsConfig never gets loaded which is loaded in the header, but where it blows in header line 138 has nothing to do with it.
