Hi:

I tried to install fudforum using both cli and web installer from the today CVS.

Im running PHP 5.1.3-dev from march 6 2006 CVS on Linux AMD64.
PHP is compiled with zlib , mysql, mysqli , PDO and zend-multibyte support( and other extensions ), memory Limit is 32MB.

first time I access the web installer it displays three "?" signs.("???") and does nothing, when I reload the page, it just do nothing Confused

if I use the install-cli.php script it displays exactly 5686 "?" signs and do nothing.

any IDEA ?

What are your mbstring settings, do you have function overload enabled?

Did the installer create forum_archive or similar file in the directory it was placed in?

can you try putting var_dump() at the various section of the script to see which (if any) are being reached.

Crying or Very Sad

a trace using xdebug ( just recompiled from the CVS)
using

xdebug.auto_trace On
xdebug.show_local_vars On
seems to be unhelpful

TRACE START [2006-03-10 03:05:32]
      2     0.0065     102040   -> {main}() /srv/www/htdocs/fud21_install/install.php:0
      3     0.0070       4008
      4 TRACE END   [2006-03-10 03:05:32]


executions seems to be halted inmediately.

ps: I tried fudforum install with and without xdebug loaded soame result.

Also, a weird thing happends, If I call the installer with the browser one time. it shows "???" but If I reload the page it shows nothing, but if I wait a few seconds ( maybe 30 sec or so ) and reload the page, it shows the "???" again Shocked

ps: Im using apache 2.0.5x (prefork)

Do you have any zend extensions loaded, such as the Zend Optimizer?

Sounds like a possible bug in PHP, I'll investigate it over the weekend.

Ilia:
I have compiled PHP cli without zend-multibyte and the cli installer started working again.


I haven't tried the web installer though...

this maybe can help you to find where starts looking ?

I suspect the problem is a bug in PHP where the engine multibyte support (a very poor one to be truthful with you) breaks the COMPILER_HALT functionality in PHP.

I'd suggest compiling your PHP without that flag.

Ok. Thanks for advice.

If you need more information to trace the underlying issue, let me to know.

ps: nice to see the "var" deprecation E_STRICT removed Very Happy

For future reference, the solution is to set "detect_unicode" to "off" in your php.ini file. More details @ http://fudforum.org/forum/index.php?t=msg&th=118843
