Can't get past SUPERUSER SETTING in installation

Post by achilehero »

I try to install phpwcms on my local computer IIS 5.1, PHP version: 5.1.2, MySQL version: 5.0.18.
When I arrive at step 6 and I hit continue, it doesn't go further, no error, no warning, no nothing. What can it be? I tried several times to install in different folders, even with an older version, phpwcms_r182, since I tried with the last one, phpwcms_r213. The table in the database are there (phpwcms creates them). I have no clue where to go from here.

I see that I cannot attach here my php.ini ... I would have done that.

It works, in any tricky ways, perhaps you like to ask Oliver on this, but me for myself I stopped to ask myself "why" concerning windows !!!

Yes. I know. I even talked to Oliver by e-mail. He suggested some things, but it wasn't the case. Maybe it can be something related with the way that users are getting introduced to the data base, that it's not working on IIS very well. What version of IIS , php, mysql do you have?

It sounds like your MySQL was set up with STRICT setting. Disable this.

Another idea is to check conf.inc.php. Maybe there is the false DB version set or missing - so phpwcms inits db in a false way.

MySQL 5.00.51:

Code: Select all

$phpwcms['db_version'] = 50051;
