Installation question ?

[Anonymous]

I download the script and install it from install/index.php. OK. I have database with tables and evrythink. But when i run index.php from the root directory it redirects me to install/index.php i ask me to install it again. I reinstall it and it happens over and over again. What i must do :?:

Thank you in advance :wink:

Also, in index.php starting on line 52, you will see:
Content visible to registered users only.

You can delete this.


Also, you can remove the /install folder after installation is complete.

Thenk you very much :)
I fix it but i get this error : Content visible to registered users only.

What means ?

[David]

I'll try to get a more experienced programmer to reply to this one.

We found the bug on this. It seems that when you change the config it was going to the install directory again. This is now fixed in the next version. I already have it ready, but I also am preparing a release with only the changed files, so that it is easy to upgrade.

David, I use version 1.012 and I have the same installation problem. What is the solution to that?

Thank you,

I have noticed this error is cropping up on Windows machines. Version 2.0, due out in the next couple of days has been fully tested on Windows and Linux, and runs fine. I'll try to see if I can get a programmer to answer this, and if you find the solution, I hope you will post it here.

I think I found the solution to the problem.

The script is using 4 tables: "category", "email", "link", "user"
In file "directory.sql" we can see that the table names are starting with a capital letter.

I installed the script into my local apache server in Windows XP and I noticed that the table names are coming lowercase then I checked the table names from my remote installation (apache in linux). Guess what? the table names had capital the first letter!

The solution is to drop the four tables, then modify the directory.sql to have lowercase in the table names and import it again into the db.

By the way, does anyone knows if there is a way to use prefixes in the table names? like phpdir_category, phpdir_email, etc.
This way we can separate the tables in a db full with tables from other scripts.

Cheers,
Bill

Please, ignore my previous post. It was a false alarm... :(

[David]

No problem at all. I'm glad you are using the script.
2.0 is coming, and there will be an upgrade script. If you like what you see so far, be prepared for something a lot better. It could be as early as tomorrow, but we have to finish testing.
