Scuttle

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

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

If Scuttle Redirector doesn't work?
i'm trying to install scuttle social bookmark on politecalab.org. i did this installation many times before without trouble, but it seems that doesn't work at all here. suggestions found on this page could'nt help me, and system doesn't work at all, i receive an "no input file". i also checked the error.log received from support team without find in it something useful, i really don't know how move forward. further ideas? thx

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)
