<VirtualHost *:80> ServerName mydomainname.com DocumentRoot /var/www/html/foldername/ </VirtualHost>

My current httpd conf has this

@SMJ do you have the <Directory .... </Directory> part? You probably don't, so add it. and restart apache after, sudo service apache2 restart

I added it and restarted httpd. still some css and images are not being loaded. they show 404 in console. therir path has foldername in it

Links dont have foldername in it now. but website style is entirely broken

@SMJ did you flush the cache?

yes i did flush the cache.. but css and js aggregation is on... should i turn it off

mydomainname.com/folder/themes/sochthemei/images/wave.png this is how images are being loaded. how to change path..?

when i removed the domain name from 'trusted host patterns' and clear cache, I get "The provided host name is not valid for this server." Error msg

Have you changed the $settings['file_public_base_url'] in settings.php?

Its commented in my settings.php Should I add my path

There shouldn't be any need to uncomment it. hmm, must be something else.

In performance page i do have msg like "External resources can be optimized automatically, which can reduce both the size and number of requests made to your website. Set up the public files directory to make these optimizations available."

Clear your browser cache & cookies, or use Incognito window to check it's not browser cached.

The loading css path is incorrect now. mydomainname.com/?p5gsbd

@SMJ Does it fix if you turn off aggregation?

I can't turn it off now. The checkboxes are disabled. In performance page i do have msg like "External resources can be optimized automatically, which can reduce both the size and number of requests made to your website. Set up the public files directory to make these optimizations available."

Sorry for being so stupid. I am really stuck. the thing is that I told my client that the website is finished. Now I cant host it. :(

Have you enabled a2enmod rewrite? you can by typing "a2enmod rewrite" in the console and then restart apache "sudo service apache2 restart"

i had enabled it before

does your /sites/default/files folder have the correct ownder/group? should be "www-data"

its ec2-user/www

I work on an amazon linux ec2 instance

aggregated js is being loaded correctly mydomainname.com/sites/default/files/js/…

I use Ubuntu EC2 instance. Can you check if you can upload images?

drwxrwxr-x 2 ec2-user www 4096 Dec 28 10:55 inline-files

this is how permission looks from terminal

The file could not be uploaded.

admin side also does not load style

---Temporary directory is /tmp

should I change group of /tmp to www

yeah, do this, "cd /var/www/html/drupal" then "sudo chown www -R sites"

you need to change the owner, otherwise, even with 777 it wont work.

chown: invalid user: ‘www’

i get this error

but page seems to load except for a few images

try "sudo chown www-data -R sites"

that fixed it ... thanks alot.. you saved apoor soul today

One more doubt. If I had another domain name pointing to same website, I should add it in trusted host patterns in settings.php. Should I write another virtual host block for the 2nd domain name

write another virtual host block

cheers mate

the admin side has problem but its ok ;-)

admin side was fixed when i commented the file_public_base_url that i set before
