Basic Elkarte Installation issues
So, I trashed my VPS with the first install of Elkarte before realising I was hitting an inode limitation (OpenVZ problem) and I'm starting again. This is a new 14.04 VPS and I'm still getting used to new PHP, Apache2 and MySQL versions.
Problems with 1.0.1 install:
1) All URLs in theme, smileys. avatars defaulting to 127.0.0.1 (clue is the broken layout without a theme)
Pretty sure I had this last time. Easily fixable but not ideal for new users. Surely the installer should derive these URLs from the forum URL?
2) I can't upload anything to forum. Same server has a running version of SMF which uploads fine so it doesn't seem to be a php.ini issue. When I choose something to upload I get the attached error.

Result of script:
server name :: elkarte.secretprojects.co.uk
http post :: elkarte.secretprojects.co.uk
Server is Ubuntu 14.04, PHP 5.5, Apache 2.4
Board URL is correct, just not the urls in smileys, avatars, themes. I know from SMF server migration experience these three are not derived from board URL in settings.php but are stored separately.
I might delete the install and try again.

Thanks I'll do some more looking as well. I run on 14.04 as well but with Nginx as the web server. Any other clues on the file upload, they may be a clue in the post response to the ajax request

So I figured this out - it is the Fancybox mod which is breaking the upload.
If I remove Fancybox, it all works fine.
Fancybox worked ok on 1.0 so I think this is a 1.01 issue.

Missing string fancybox_Padding in language files.

Ah ... broken JS in the chain, good catch.
