Roller comment boxes bot appearing

[Timothy Mizas]

I'm not sure what happened, but even though I have comments enabled, there is no option for the user to submit any comments on any blog postings. The only error I see in roller.log is
ERROR 2008-07-21 13:38:38,359 IndexManagerImpl:initialize - java.io.IOException: Permission denied
Since it doesn't tell me what it's being denied permission to, I don't know where to look. The looks like it would have to do with the search-index folder to me. But wouldn't that be unrelated to the comments? Why wouldn't the comment box appear?

That is probably an unrelated error.

Which Roller theme are you using?

It's a modified version of dirtylicious http://rollerthemes.com/home/resource/preview-dirtylicious.html

That is not part of the official Apache Roller release

Can you reproduce this problem with one of the stock Roller themes like Basic?

- Dave

[Timothy Mizas]

Ah, ok. I see now. When I switched to Basic, the comment options appeared. I guess I'll have to sift through those vm files to see how I can display comments with my custom theme.

Thanks,
Tim

Could it be the same as this problem, perhaps?

It'd be nice if all the rollerthemes.com themes were part of the
Roller Support project so folks could report bugs, fix problems, make
versioned releases, etc. We need Eugene Strokin's help to make that
happen.

In weblog.vm, I have this in my content div

#if($model.weblogEntry.commentCount > 0)
 #showWeblogEntryComments($model.weblogEntry)
#end
#showWeblogEntryCommentForm($model.weblogEntry)

And even though there are comments on posts, when view the day or main blog site I don't see any comments and instead of a comment form I get

Post a Comment:
Comments are closed for this entry.

But when I click on a particular post so I am only viewing that post, I can see the comments and the comment form. Shouldn't that code snippet always display the comments and comment form?

It should always display the comments, if there are any.

But it will not show the comment form if:
- Comments are not allowed for the entry
- Comments are no longer allowed for the entry
- Comments are disabled at the weblog level
- Comments are disabled at the site-wide level

Does that that explain things?
