I've tried this with the latest release as well as with the CVS checkout.

I'm unable to get past step one. Using FreeBSD-4.6, Apache-1.3.26, php-4.2, etc.

I create 2 directories under ~apache/htdocs: fud and fudforum, and chown them to the server UID/GID (recursively). I do not have safe_mode enabled in php.ini. I go to install, specifying the above directories, and I end up with an error that says the page cannot be displayed (IE), from the URL:

http://myserver.net/fud/install.php?1992379461

I've tried placing the install.php IN and OUT of the destination install directory, same with the CVS version and I get the same problem.

I don't know that this is a permissions issue, per the above chown, and other things on my site are working fine.

Anyone know where this is failing?


Thanks alot,
Forrest

Send me your install.php file, I believe the problem maybe in the file itself.

Attached here is the install.php file that was taken from the archive. It is exactly what's in the latest release archive, however.

Thanks,

Thanks, I'll try to install the forum using the very same script and see if I can replicate the problem.

Mean while check your php config to see if you are using open_basedir option and if the error messages in php are logged to a file or displayed on screen.

I don't have that configuration directive in my php.ini file, and was unable to see anything useful in the various log files (apache, messages, mysql) what would suggest anything odd.


Thanks,
Forrest

I've just installed the forum using your install script, installation went just fine.

I did not chmod the directory where I want to install the forum 777 as I usually do, but rather showned it to the webserver www:www in my case and run the installer.

As you can see the installed for yourself at:

Does your php.ini have a value for the error_log directive, also what error_reporting level do you have set?

Here are what my variables are set as:

error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE ; Show all errors except for notices

error_log is not set.. Oops. I'll set it to syslog and try this again (that was dumb).

Running PHP 4.2.0 here.

I had 4.2.2, but backed down because it had some bugs.

Aight, I'll install php 4.2.0 on my machine and try, however it looks like a PHP problem rather then FUDforum problem.

Thanks, I appreciate it.

I've not had any other crashes with this release of PHP, however... and I am running a few other php-dependent apps.

Just to let you know, I installed PHP-4.2.3 and the latest version of FudForum and have had no problems installing it this time.

Thanks for your previous help; much appreciated.

Hi!

I've tried to install fud2.5.0 using php 4.1.2, but unsuccessfully:

"Your php version (4.1.2) is older then the minimum required version (4.2.0).
...
Also, if you are using PostgreSQL, the API of the PostgreSQL interface functions had changed drastically in PHP version, 4.2.0 hence this requirment."

My ISP-Provider says, php4.1.2-6 IS debian's latets STABLE release. Neutral

I use MySql, so i don't need "API of the PostgreSQL interface functions"

Question: is there any possibility to turn off the version control?

You can certainly turn off version control, but you will encounter problems with undefined functions etc... later on.
