SMF Version: SMF 1.0.8
Hello,
I try to install SMF 1.0.8. After the screen "Basic Settings and MySQL Server Settings", the installation script comes back allways to the first screen "FTP connection Information".
Before the installation, I created a MySQL Database like this :
mysql -u root
create database smf;
grant all on smf.* to smfuser@'%' identified by 'mypassword';
grant all on smf.* to smfuser@'localhost' identified by 'mypassword';
flush privileges;
In "MySQL settings" I give :
localhost as MySQL Server Name
smfuser as MYSQL Username
mypassword as MySQL password
smf as MySQL database name
Somebody could help me.
Thanks in advance
Make sure the following files and directories are writable (chmod 777)
* attachments

* Packages/server.list
* Smileys
* Themes
* Themes/default/languages/Install.english.php
* agreement.txt
* Settings.php
* Settings_bak.php
* install.php
How do I use chmod? (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=23690.0)
I have still the same problem and all the files and directories are 777
The problem is the following : I use Linux with SELINUX (Secure enhancement).

The solution : create a policy which permits to httpd to have an access to the installation directory
