Can't install package on Win2k

Post by johnnywu »

Hi,

I can't install the package.
When i go to serendipity_admin.php it takes a minute to load the page which results in only getting a page with "Serendipity installation" in the body but nothing else ...

I'm installing it on a W2k with Apache2.0.39 / PHP4.2.2

Does someone know what's causing it ?

The bug is actually that serendipity doesn't work properly when the port of the apache server isn't port 80 (The default NT install uses port 8080).
If you use mozilla you'll get a chance to hit stop and see the results of the script running. Don't know if this applies to the Linux/BSD apache & PHP installs as well but that was my problem on NT.
Serendipity doesn't work on IIS on NT because some of the $_SERVER variables aren't set by PHP under IIS.
It does work fine on Apache.
I've put this on the sourceforge page as well.
