Hi,

We've just set up a new server and I migrated a model-glue application that is working fine. The current server is running Windows Server 2008 and CF 8. The new one is running IIS7 and CF 10.

I have a test website set up at: http://teppr.tailbase.com/
Any page I go to in the navigation, the URL changes but the home page is always shown.
For example, you can click on Our Story: http://teppr.tailbase.com/en/aboutus

This is very strange and I can't even figure out where to start with this. How can I see what is happening with the request to figure out why this is occurring?

Turn on model Glue debugging and see how the request is being processed.

It's in your ColdSpring.xml file.

It looks as though something isn't configured correctly with respect to your event-type.  In one of the steps above the "What about Two Columns" section, you were supposed to insert the following XML:
 
<event-type name="templatedPage">
  <after>
    <views> 
      <include name="navigation" template="layout/Layout.Navigation.cfm">
        <value name="xe_ShipmentList" value="Shipment.List" />
      </include>
      <include name="message" template="layout/Layout.MessageBox.cfm" />
      <include name="footer" template="layout/Layout.Footer.cfm" />
      <include name="main" template="layout/Master.Layout.cfm" />
    </views>
  </after>      
</event-type>
Can you verify that this is in your ModelGlue.xml file?  In this example, the layout and styles are being applied to the page via views that are defined in the event-type. Not having the event-type definition in your XML file would cause the "unskinned" result that you're seeing.
 
Check that and report back.

Super...that looks fine. Somewhere along the way we're missing some styles it appears.
 
Can do you do a view source on your rendered page and make sure that our <head> tag code exists? The view cfm files seem to exist in the correct place or CF would be throwing an exception. What we need to verify now is that a) the final rendered HTML has the link to the css file in it (<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="www/css/style.css" media="screen" />) and b) that the CSS file is in the correct location.
 
You should be able to browse to the CSS file directly by going to http://10.0.0.23/PlantOMatic/www/css/style.css  If that doesn't work, then we have some files in a place other than where the view files are expecting to see them.
 
You might also check your console to see if there are any errors reported as the browser tries to load resources.

Ah okay...those screenshots help a bunch. We now know that our files are in the right place and the source code view screenshot that you provided tells me that our event type isn't getting fired for some reason since the views in the event type are what are responsible for putting the "skin" or layout items around our content views.
 
Let's turn on ModelGlue debugging so we can tell exactly what's going on.
 
In your PlantOMatic/config/ColdSpring.xml file, look for a line that says (should be on about line 7) :
 
<property name="debug"><value>false</value></property>
 
Change that false value to true. 
 
While we're here, let's verify that the reload property right above it is set to true as well.  If it is not, change it to true and add ?init=true to the end of the URL in your browser.
 
Adding the debugging info will show us exactly what ModelGlue is doing through the request process.
 
If you are familiar with using IRC, we could move this discussion to the #coldfusion channel on irc.freenode.net. My nickname there is TNTechnoHermit.

At this point I'm kind of out of ideas without being able to see the code. Can you zip up your PlantOMatic directory and either email it to me or put it on a file share somewhere I can grab it. I'll put it on my local machine and see if I can replicate the issue.
 
Thanks

I finally had a chance to install this locally and see what was going on.  Turns out you did nothing wrong. We had an issue with the documentation on the wiki, so thank you for bringing this to our attention and our apologies for the headache to get to this point.
 
Essentially, the script that we ran to convert the site content from Trac to a GitHub wiki a few months ago wasn't completely accurate. There was one key thing missing in the sentence that told you to add the event-type.
 
Before it said:
Our template runs after Events are processed. Open /PlantOMatic/config/ModelGlue.xml and insert the following code in between the tags.
 
It should have said (and indeed did but the browser didn't render it because the angle brackets weren't escaped correctly):
Our template runs after Events are processed. Open /PlantOMatic/config/ModelGlue.xml and insert the following code in between the <event-types></event-types> tags.
 
So, long story short, if you surround your <event-type name="templatedPage"> tag with a tag named <event-types></event-types> so that it looks like below, you'll be in business.
 
<event-types>

  <event-type name="templatedPage">
    <after>
   <views>
     <include name="navigation" template="layout/Layout.Navigation.cfm">
    <value name="xe_ShipmentList" value="Shipment.List" />
     </include>
     <include name="message" template="layout/Layout.MessageBox.cfm" />
     <include name="footer" template="layout/Layout.Footer.cfm" />
     <include name="main" template="layout/Master.Layout.cfm" />
   </views>
    </after>     
  </event-type>
</event-types>
 
Again, our apologies for the issue with the documentation. I've corrected this issue on the wiki and attempted to make sure that there aren't any more issues like this in the rest of the training documents, but if you have further issues, please let us know.
 
Thanks
Dan

When I click on the training link, I get directed to: http://docs.model-glue.com/training.cfm

>From there, both links ( Free self-paced training course  ) and (Get started! ) direct me to: https://github.com/modelglue/modelglue-framework/wiki/Training

>From https://github.com/modelglue/modelglue-framework/wiki/Training, I can click the Wiki page and then the Reference Material link and see the references you see.

It's possible we missed one of the links when we converted from Trac to Github, but I can't find any such thing based on what you have given me so far.

I want to fix any stray links to point to GitHub,  but I need to know exactly what page had a link to: http://docs.model-glue.com/wiki/ReferenceMaterials/ViewApi
