new to comicgenesis & comics won't show up

Post by Eclipsearikado »

I uploaded my first comic yesterday. Today, I looked at my page to make sure that autokeen had taken care of the rest, and my comic didn't show up. I looked at the page source, and the link in the image tag was
http://eclipsearikado.keenspace.com/comics/20050918.jpg
So I tried to just go to the image, and it said that eclipsearikado.keenspace.com could not be found.
I have the vaguest idea that there's something confusing going on about keenspace changing to comicgenesis and whatnot, but I have no idea what to do about my comic. Please help >.<

Huh, that's odd. Check public_html/comics. If the comic's not there (which is what it looks like to me), upload it to /workpsace/comics and run a manual update. If it is there, check the filename and make sure it's exactly 20050918.jpg. Autokeen is case sensitive.

Is your comic "Diary of a Defective Chinese Girl"? That comic is under .http://eclipsearikado.comicgenesis.com/

Try changing your URL through admin to see if the FTP is loading the right URL. When I try to go to http://eclipsearikado.comicgenesis.com/ ... 050918.jpg , I get an "Internal Server" error, rather than a "Page Not Found" error.

If all else fails, delete the comic and re-upload it. Other than that, I'm stumped.
This is going in my notebook titled "Things I Didn't Know about Surface Dwellers."

Agreed I had to do the same thing. The second time I uploaded it was okay.
