OS X trooble

Post by lofi »

hi there,

i did unpacked all the stuff in the correct directory. Then I checked all the "config" page up to the "check and save" button...and...nothing.

No alert.
No message.
Blue HTML screen w/ "Serendipy administration page" wrote on the top ?

MySQL hasn't been modified. MySQl, PHPmyadmin etc.. are running nicely.

If S9y can't connect to MySQL it should sent an error warning, shouldn't it ?

I can't figure out what's going on without any alert signal....

Anybody an idea ??

cheers

anyway your stuff seems brilliant ...

Which version are you installing? Could you test with a latest Snapshot?

And can you please look at the HTML source of the page, maybe there are some PHP errors there? And if possible please post the HTML code you receive at the last page here.

If available, a URL to the outputs of a <?php phpinfo(); ?> script of your server could help.

Regards,
Garvin

Have you checked that your PHP has the mysql module installed and enabled? Does a simple script like below (from php.net) work?

(Replace the mysql_host, mysql_user and mysql_password with whatever you are using).

Code: Select all

<?php
// Connecting, selecting database
$link = mysql_connect('mysql_host', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password')
   or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
echo 'Connected successfully';
mysql_select_db('my_database') or die('Could not select database');

// Closing connection
mysql_close($link);
?>

Please make sure in php.ini that 'display_errors' are set to ON!

It seems Serendipity emits an error, but doesn't show it because of your PHP setup.

If you have a chance, please try the 0.8 Snapshot installation, the installer has been much improved there!
