Hi gubagu,

technically there shouldn't be any difference between running this on a Win32 system or a *nix system. All my testing takes place on Mac and Linux, and it's built to be cross-platform.

I think there's likely to be other differences in your setup that are causing this. The most likely culprits are 3rd-party SEF plugins (e.g. sh404SEF, AceSEF etc), which should be placed *before* the MetaTemplate system plugin. That's because MetaTemplate needs to be able to decipher the URLs in order to run some of the rules.

There should not be any directory permissions issues - the only time MetaTemplate needs to write anything is if you use the 1-click GeoIP database downloading, or the 1-click template duplication.

What particular problems are occurring for you with the *nix installation? What part isn't working?

Cheers,
Stephen

Hi Stephen,

I found the problem
The names of my templates in the templateDetails.xml file had capital letters in between but the folder names were all lowercase. On the Winbox it didn't matter but the *nix system could not find the templ.folder ( as Template and template are seen as two different folders. When was using the ADVANCED PHP block it didn't work but I discovered later that it worked through the SUCCEED Actions. I didn't look through you code but suppose succeed actions look directly in the directory and the returns from the ADVANCED PHP look for the templ.folder based on given return case sensitive value.

I hope this feedback could help the further development of the component.

Anyway now it works perfectly.

Thanks for the great component !!!

Cheers,
Gugabu
