Unable to install a theme in Silverstripe

I am trying to install this theme in SilverStripe: http://www.silverstripe.org/woody-theme/

Here is what I did:

  • I copied the code/Page.php & CustomSiteConfig.php in the mysite folder.

  • Also copied the last line of _config.php as mentioned in the link.

  • Then copied the templates/woody folder to themes directory.

  • copied the woodybox into the root folder.

  • Modified the mysite/_config.php file to include the line: SSViewer::set_theme('woody');

Still, the site shows server error. I think its an error with installation of the theme. Also I am able to install other themes correctly.

Add this to your _config.php file and it should give you a more descriptive SilverStripe error: Director::set_environment_type('dev'); Also - did you run a dev/build after installing the theme? e.g. mydomain.com/dev/build?flush=1 (add the flush to clear the template cache). - Shane Garelja
Besides doing the two things above: What's the actual error? If it's a server-side error, it's in the log files. If you're having root access it should be in /var/log/apache2/error.log (Debian / Ubuntu) otherwise somewhere in your provider's web administration interface. - xeraa
@ShaneGarelja yup I had run dev/build. - user1349661
@xeraa There are two errors, I doubt if both were there or one of them: - user1349661

Its clear from the error logs that you haven't run /dev/build?flush=1

Remove everything & try installing once again, I tried & it worked fine for me.
