@Naveen, checking your server error logs is the only other thing I can suggest.

Did you change your DB schema? Going from 0 to 1 or 2 refreshes the app’s cache files, alternatively delete the files in tmp/cache

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your comment.

I take your point about encapsulating it in one class. Good thinking.

I think I’ll change it to work that way.

I would make it cleaner and more portable.

Cheers.

Are the settings in the config file really necessary? I think it would be cleaner to define all those runtime settings (probably with the exception of “site_or_admin”) in one single place. For example:

// in bootstrap.php
class Runtime {
public static function getOS() {
// if OS is win, return “Windows”, else “Linux”
}
// here the other methods
}

Configure::write(‘Runtime.operating_system’, Runtime::getOS());

I hope you see what I mean ;-)
