Hi there,
I've checked through all posts regarding Install issues and cannot find what i'm looking for.
I just downloaded ver 0.7-rc1 and installed it on a Win2003 server running Apache (on port 80), PHP 4.3.9 and MySQL. All other PHP sites work on this machine.
I go to the initial Install page, and run through connecting through the DB etc. The next page is http://192.168.0.80/serendipity/serendipity_admin.php? and just has the blue line with "Serendipity installation". And that's it. It didn't create anything in the DB, doesn't come back with any errors. Nothing. And I cannot figure out why it doesn't carry on. Checked permissions of the folders, but nothing wierd.
Any ideas why it doesn't carry on with the install process?
Thanks a lot,
Chris
Nothing happening after running first page of Install

Re: Nothing happening after running first page of Install
Have you tried viewing the HTML source code of the "empty" page? Maybe there are error messages hidden within?
And the database is empty? Which database type are you using? Did you check your PHP and Apache Error Logs?

Nonexistant?
Hi,
Ok, in the Apache log, it's got this line:
[Wed Oct 27 08:47:19 2004] [error] [client 192.168.0.80] File does not exist: C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs/Serendipity/serendipity_admin.phpnonexistant
?? Never seen that before. What's going on?
Thanks a lot,
Chris

oh yeah`
I forgot, The HTML code shows nothing much:
<html>
<head>
<title>Serendipity Administration Suite</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="serendipity.css.php" />
</head>
<body id="serendipity_admin_page">
<div id="serendipity_banner">
<h1></h1>
</div>
<table id="mainpane">
<tr valign="top">
<td class="serendipity_admin">
<div class="serendipity_date">Serendipity installation</div>
<p>
And that's it. Very bizarro.
Cheers,
Chris

Re: oh yeah`
Okay, that one "nonexistant" error is usual. S9y checks for that file to see, if mod_rewrite is available.
Now, could you please open your php.ini file (c:\windows\php.ini it should be) and see if display_errors is set to on? I guess PHP should give you an error message?

Garvin

Looking at your output, that one cannot be from the current 0.7-rc1 release file; the body tag should look like this:
Please make sure you extracted the right files from our Release file (http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/php- ... z?download) and extracted them into your right folder?
Regards,
Garvin.
Code: Select all
<body class="s9y_wrap" id="serendipity_admin_page" onload="if (self.Spawnnugget) { Spawnnugget(); }">

Windows XP and PHP as CGI Binary
I had the same problem installing Serendipity last night on a Windows XP machine. I decided to test out Serendipity on my laptop and so I downloaded Apache, MySQL, and PHP along with Serendipity on my laptop. I had a problem initially installing PHP as an Apache Module and since I was just installing the whole setup as a quick test on a PC that is not used as a Web server, I decided to install PHP as a CGI binary.
At any rate, I was up late last night trying to figure out the problem myself and even looked at this thread. Thinking about today, I decided trying to re-install PHP as an Apache Module to see if that would solve the problem. After re-installing PHP as an Apache Module and trying Serendipity again, Serendipity started working correctly and the install form posted correctly. Serendipity now seems to be working fine, although I have not totally tested it yet, I was able to log on and post a blog entry.
Thanks
Dean
