I’m trying to install fudforum for the first time.
Install.php script fails after step one- After clicking ‘next’, page pauses for a minute or two, I then get the general IE error “The page cannot be displayed... Cannot find server or DNS Error” but no useful information.
Originally I tried to install v2.7.4, but got the WWW_ROOT_CHECK error. I uncommented that line to bypass that check, then it looked like it was working or something was happening at least, but then it failed as described above.
I then tried to install version 2.7.3. This one didn’t fail the WWW_ROOT_CHCEK test, but the same failure happened.
This is being run on Windows 2003 server, php 5.1.2, iis 6.
I’ve seen mentions of making sure the install script was downloaded as binary, not ascii. How would I verify this? From the download site, I did ‘save as’ and saved to the desktop; from there I used winzip to unzip it. Was that the correct way?
I’m logging all php error messages, and getting none.
For a while I thought it might be a permissions issue, as I had to give ‘network service’ permission to read php_mysql.dll to even get to step 1, and I think I’ve set all the permissions I have to. I guess it still could be this, but I doubt it.
I’ve gone through php.ini to make sure everything is set correctly, and I think it is, but I could have missed something.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Tim
