I've had some hard time installing Scuttle on my Dreamhost account, so I thought I would write down what made it work.--Ozh 13:47, 17 Aug 2006 (PDT)

Problem

Nasty Error 500 (Internal server error) right after installation and config.inc.php editing.

Solution

Commenting out the second line in the .htaccess was all it needed to work.

Original .htaccess :

Options +FollowSymlinks
AcceptPathInfo On
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?(.*)      $1.php/$2       [L]

Modified .htaccess :

Options +FollowSymlinks
# AcceptPathInfo On
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?(.*)      $1.php/$2       [L]

Problem

I installed Scuttle and I made the change above, but it was still not working correctly. The front page appeared, but without any CSS applied and all the links pointed to nonexistent pages.

Solution

Setting the $root variable on line #99 of the config.inc.php fixed the problem.

Original config.inc.php :

$root               = NULL;

Modified config.inc.php :

$root               = 'http://mysubdomain.dreamhost.com/scuttle/';


Problem

My Scuttle installation generates a lot of "No input file specified." errors, depending on what page I'm trying to display.

Solution

Try the Scuttle Redirector fix by Ozh

Problem No Links on First Page

After following the steps named before I can't see my links on the first Page of Scuttle. That Problem occured before as well but was not solved with the upper solutions. Even after Login I can't see other Peoples Links. I can see my Links after Login. (Example: http://mms.dreamhosters.com/links)
