    Hi there,

    I’m experiencing all the time Error 503 (http://www.barristermagazine.com/zstaging/) and also I noticed that clear cache does not work well, even trying to empty the cache foder says I don’t have permissions. I try to change them but does not allow me. I’m at loss at how to solve this issue.

    any help with this?

    thanks!

      I think it may be something related to config.core.php but I’m not sure.

      I want to move the website from the zstaging folder the root folder. But I will need to sort out first this 503 issue. Anyone does why this may have happened?

      thanks.

        I think I sorted this. This line in index.php was wrong:

        @include(dirname(__FILE__) . ’/config.core.php’);

        took out the "/" infront of the path and that worked: @include(dirname(__FILE__) . ’config.core.php’);

          That is not correct for sure...

            Hmmm, I know this is old, but installing 2.2.1 I had teeth-gnashing problems trying to overcome core.transport.zip not unpacking (just search for this in forums). After following a successful workaround and getting 'installation successful' messages, when I went to the home page I got a 503 error. Turns out the problem was exactly as edumira reports above. Removed the slash in front of config and bingo! So thanks edumira.
