Rewrite error

Problem: Home works but other sections return an error.

Solution 1: Setup the rewritebase in your .htaccess:

Syntax: rewritebase /path

Solution 2: Setup the allowoverride in your .htaccess.

Syntax: allowoverride fileinfo

Solution 3: Remove .htaccess and Redaxscript will fall back to string mode.

Fatal error

Problem: Instead of seeing what you expected you get a blank screen.

Solution 1: Verify your server provides PHP 4.3.0 or above.

Solution 2: Edit index.php and post the error reporting to the Google group.

Syntax: error_reporting(-1);

Charset error

Problem: Special characters are not displayed correctly.

Solution: Setup the adddefaultcharset in your .htaccess:

Syntax: adddefaultcharset utf-8

Session error

Problem: Your session cannot be started or expires frequently.

Solution: Setup another session path in your .htaccess:

Syntax: session.save_path /sessions
