Problem Installing

omega · April 04, 2004, 08:47:52 PM

Ok, First of All, i made sure my mySQL database is running correctly, then I've made sure I've had the php, and the libary files for php-mysql, running under linux redhat version 7.2.

The problem I'm having, my apache runs under port 8080.
I goto the website address for the installer to run,
hxxp:www.mysite.com:8080/install.php [nonactive]

well it loads up the install file,
I put in my forums name, database information and click next, then
when it loads the next page it stall.
I only get to in the newly created page, So if anyone has any ideas please help...

if php wasn't enabled then the install program wouldn't even load, it would show the source code for the installer program or a 403 forbidden error

I'd wait for Unknown to take a look at this thread. It doesn't sound like an Apache/PHP issue unless you have a really old version of PHP. Can we please have a phpinfo file though.

omega · April 04, 2004, 09:15:13 PM

David, where can i get this so called phpinfo.php file at?

Just create a file in your web root containing:

Code Select


<? phpinfo(); ?>

You can name it whatever you want but normally I just make them phpinfo.php. Then provide us with a link to that file.

I would upgrade your PHP version. 4.1.2 is quite old, I think around two years. I can't remember if SMF will run on 4.1.2 or if it requires 4.2.2. None the less, it is worth upgrading to 4.3.4 for other various bug fixes and feature additions.

David I think your right, it look like the php, isn't connecting to the mysql database.
Well, I'm compiling php now, I'll let you know the results. Thanks David.
