Ok Paul
But first I want to say I am trying this on local host.
Bert
Ok so http://localhost/emoncms should work (or just http://localhost depending on how you configured it).
Paul
I am getting the message “undefined”
Bert
Had this problem first time I installed
In the instal directory there is a .htaccess file but on some computers these files are hidden and when you ftp them up to the server, you just forget to upload that file
It contains all the redirects for apache and this undefined error ‘might’ originate in missing the redirects
If you can unhide your files, do so else make a new file (on root level where you installed emoncms and call it .htaccess) on the host with the following code
# Apache/PHP/Emoncms settings:
#
# Set the default handler.
DirectoryIndex index.php
# Various rewrite rules.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
#RewriteBase /sites/emon/
# Rewrite URLs of the form 'x' to the form 'index.php?q=x'.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-s

Eric
But I am installing on localhost. I think no problems with the .htaccess file then.
Bert
localhost or remote host, it is still Apache and Apache needs to know where to go for some files. .htaccess tells it where to find them. Just try that already.
Eric
Yes I tried and it didn’t solved the problem
Bert
Eric
I am on Windows
Bert
I’m afraid I have never installed on Windows, so may not be able to help much.
Have you enabled “mod_rewrite” ?
have you been following this windows install guide? (I’m unsure how up to date it is)
This getting started with emoncms | Archived Forum might help too. You also need gettext (or at least, used to need it).
I switched to Linux when Win 8 appeared, so I’m no longer up to date on Wampserver, though I did write it up somewhere in Building Blocks, if my memory serves. Try searching there and the old forum if you’re still stuck.
Where can I find the script for registering?
I am using PhpEd (Nusphere) and maybe I can debug this.
Bert
It’s part of the User Module.
I am not sure but I think I am missing register.json
Bert
Is that possible that I am missing register.json?
Is the file not on Github?
Bert
Hi Bert,
You getting anywhere with this?
I have emoncms running fine on Win2012R2 for a while now. I seem to remember having permission issues to start with, and Redis was a bit unpleasant to get running.
I’m guessing your issue is not inside your emoncms directory (under \wamp\www) - when I update my emoncms, all I do is download the .zip from github, unzip to ‘emoncms’, copy (or merge if there were format changes) my settings.php and download & unzip dashboard under emoncms\modules (and I rebuild my emoncms directory this way quite often)
I’m running wampserver 2.5 32-bit.
I’ve attached my httpd.conf from \wamp\bin\apache\apache2.4.9\conf httpd.zip (6.6 KB)
- see how this compares to yours - particularly the bit below <Directory “C:/wamp/www”>
Looks like WAMP 3.0 is out - probably about time for me to do this again (and take better notes).
Thanks,
Sandy
Hi Sandy
I am not working with WAMP. I installed Nusphere(PhpEd).
I will install again but when I look what Paul said and look in the module I see that register.json is called.
That file is not on my system.
Bert
Hi Bert,
That “user/register.json” looks to me to be the server URL that your new user & password are being sent to. I don’t think that actually exists quite as that within the emoncms server code - but I believe the apache rewrite module is supposed to change that to something that can be processed.
And indeed, I get yor ‘undefined’ error if my rewrite configuration (in .htaccess) is not correct.
Sandy
Hi Bert
I simply answered your question asking where the script was, I would not expect there to be an issue within that code. I had already mentioned mod_rewrite, Eric had already said about .htaccess and now Sandy says the samething. Going by what you have disclosed so far it does seem to be to a routing issue where the URL’s are not being rewritten as expected/necessary. But it’s difficult to be sure as we have no idea what you have done to install or tried whilst trying to fix.
I think I will let it rest a while. It don’t work
