Hello,

If the file is there and it says it doesn't exist that is most likely a permissions or ownership issue on your server. I would suggest contacting your host to see why your server won't read that file.

Hi, shape5' team. My english now very well, but I think, that people will understood me.
Use shape5' ones about 2 days, but understand, why the site is beginning to freeze after 2, 3 hours after install.
My test machine:
Ubuntu server 14.04.3 and all last updates for apache, php, mysql.
The shape, that I'd download and install, is going with Charlestown template. I had download it from Charlestown page as shape one (with joomla environment).
Create directory for.
Code:
site=charlestown
mkdir /home/ftp/$site
useradd $site -g web-developers -p 111 -d /home/ftp/$site -s /usr/sbin/nologin
chown $site:web-developers /home/ftp/$site
mkdir /home/ftp/$site/$site
chown -R $site:web-developers /home/ftp/$site
mkdir /var/www/$site
chown -R $site:web-developers /var/www/$site
passwd $site
there's I add pass. ok.
Code:
vim /etc/fstab
...
/home/ftp/charlestown/charlestown       /var/www/charlestown    none    bind    0    0
..
Code:
mount -a
ok
chmod -w /home/ftp/$site
lftp [email protected]
test ok
copy shape' root into [email protected]/charlestown/
ok
add temp permissions for installer
chown -R $site:web-developers /home/ftp/$site
chmod -R 777 /var/www/$site
Add mysql db as charlestowndb alias and user charlestown, as alias, in charlestowndb. ok. grant all permissions for charlestown user in charlestowndb.
run installer as go to http://192.168.9.26/charlestown/ with safari.
set admin user alias and pass. set mysql user alias (charlestown) and pass, mysql db alias (charlestowndb) and pass and going next. The shape had installed and all're ok.
I go to control panel of that joomla, set time to europe/moscow, set time to live for session in cp and go site. All're working.
be close permissions
Code:
find /var/www/$site -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 0755
find /var/www/$site -type f -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 0644
check site again. ok. I can going there.

After (about 3 hours) a go that site again. The home page was beginning about a minute or two. Than I go to server and check logs. tail /var/log/apache2/error.log was nothing saying me.
tail /var/log/apache2/access.log
Code:
192.168.9.2 - - [04/Feb/2017:14:31:01 +0300] "GET /charlestown/templates/charlestown/images/loading-bar-black.gif HTTP/1.1" 304 180 "http://192.168.9.26/charlestown/" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_6) AppleWebKit/602.3.12 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/10.0.2 Safari/602.3.12"
::1 - - [04/Feb/2017:14:31:09 +0300] "OPTIONS * HTTP/1.0" 200 125 "-" "Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.5.9-1ubuntu4.20 mod_scgi/1.13 OpenSSL/1.0.1f (internal dummy connection)"

What must I watch else? can somebody saying? the home page of shape is loading about 1 or 2 minutes. very long time.

And yes! If I delete db and siteroot. After it, be make all again (install etc), so I watch, that site is working fine. After 3 hours I will watch problem again.

Recently installed site shaper for Arthur. Had a glitch on installation (same problem I had installing another siteshaper a few weeks ago, but my host resolved it) with the page 2 install details. I'm guessing a specific database name was required by my host. This second round, I'm getting an error message on the backend that says:
JFolder: :files: Path is not a folder. Path: /home/(databasename)/public_html/CD/libraries/fof/config/domain

My host is saying that I need to do a complete reinstall but I'm thinking they don't quite understand the site shaper installation concept, though I've tried to explain it.

Do you have any thoughts on the matter before I go ahead and do a complete reinstall? (I've made only a couple changes, so I could easily start again. But my real desire is to move forward on my project.)

Hello,

I have not seen that error before, but my guess would be it's an ownership or permissions issue on the server, I doubt that it's related to the database. I did find the following, but there isn't much posted about it:

https://www.joomshaper.com/forums/jfolder-files-path-is-not-a-folder-path

I would also suggest checking on joomla.org's forum boards and post there if you find nothing. This pertains directly to the CMS itself so they may be able to offer more specific direction on this error.
