Hi all,
I have a successful install of SS working on my site (and it has been for a while). But recently I wanted to check out the staticpublisher so I followed the instructions on http://doc.silverstripe.org/staticpublisher and did all steps.
But now the site redirects to install.php page in an infinite loop.

Any ideas on what is going on?

any ideas??

Also, thought I should mention:
Site is on SS 2.4.0
and CMS and Sapphire folders are Symbolic Links.

Another clue is that it works with 2.3 .htaccess instead of the RewriteRule .* sapphire/static-main.php?url=%1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

SOLVED:

Ok I found out what the problem. Since I was setup for multisite using Symbolic Links to the CMS and Sapphire folder, I needed to change
line 38ish in static-main.php from
define('BASE_PATH', rtrim(dirname(dirname(__FILE__))), DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
to
define('BASE_PATH', rtrim(dirname(dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'])), DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR));

Read here for a solution that will allow symlinked folders without the need of hacking core files: http://www.silverstripe.org/general-questions/show/251650?start=56#post289221

I guess that should work with static-publisher as well?
