problem with admin username/password creation
problem with admin username/password creation
I am currently at step 2 in the install process and am filling in the appropriate info related to admin username and password and have checked the 'create admin account' box. Once I fill in that info as well as the other info and try to proceed to step 3 I get a message indicating to check your admin username and password. Can't get beyond that.
Any help is appreciated

Hi!
Thats my problem too. Drupal is working with the mysql properly.
I checked the database, the tables are made by setup. If i check the checkbox to create the admin user, i got this error message:
"check your admin username and password. "
Why?
That's why:
-------------
step2.inc.php:
[...]
if($err) echo "<p class=\"error\"><b>Check your admin user name and password!</b></p>";
[...]
And why is $err==1 ?
-------------------------
setup.php at step2:
[...]
if(!empty($_POST["admin_create"])) {
$db = mysql_connect($phpwcms["db_host"],$phpwcms["db_user"],$phpwcms["db_pass"]);
mysql_select_db($phpwcms["db_table"],$db);
$phpwcms["db_prepend"] = ($phpwcms["db_prepend"]) ? $phpwcms["db_prepend"]."_" : "";
$sql = "INSERT INTO ".$phpwcms["db_prepend"]."phpwcms_user (usr_login, usr_pass, usr_email, ".
"usr_admin, usr_aktiv, usr_name, usr_fe ) VALUES ('".
aporeplace($phpwcms["admin_user"])."', '".
aporeplace(md5($phpwcms["admin_pass"]))."', '".
aporeplace($phpwcms["admin_email"])."', 1, 1, '".aporeplace($phpwcms['SMTP_FROM_NAME'])."', 2);";
mysql_query($sql,$db) or $err = 1;
}
[...]
But i dont know what is the problem with the sql... Somebody help pliiiz.

mysql 5.0
phpwcms 1.2.5
Problem is:
user table:
CREATE TABLE `phpwcms_user` (
`usr_id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`usr_login` varchar(30) NOT NULL default '',
`usr_pass` varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
`usr_email` varchar(150) NOT NULL default '',
`usr_tstamp` timestamp(14) NOT NULL,
`usr_rechte` tinyint(4) NOT NULL default '0',
`usr_admin` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '0',
`usr_avatar` varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',
`usr_aktiv` int(1) NOT NULL default '0',
`usr_name` varchar(100) NOT NULL default '',
`usr_var_structure` blob NOT NULL,
`usr_var_publicfile` blob NOT NULL,
`usr_var_privatefile` blob NOT NULL,
`usr_lang` varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',
PRIMARY KEY (`usr_id`)
) TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;
and the php code to insert webmaster account:
$sql = "INSERT INTO ".$phpwcms["db_prepend"]."phpwcms_user usr_login, usr_pass, usr_email, "."usr_admin, usr_aktiv, usr_name, usr_fe) VALUES ('".aporeplace($phpwcms["admin_user"])."', '".aporeplace(md5($phpwcms["admin_pass"]))."', '".aporeplace($phpwcms["admin_email"])."', 1, 1, ".aporeplace($phpwcms['SMTP_FROM_NAME'])."', 2);";
SO for example field `usr_var_structure` is defined to not null in the
database, and the php code dont fill it.

Hi,
at this point I would download the last version 1.26 CVS 14.12.2005 and start a fresh installation.
http://www.phpwcms-docu.de/index.php?cvs_info_en
- Kill the database
- delete all files and folders
- copy the newest version at your webspace
- setting correct permissons for files & folder
- start the installation 1.26CVS
http://www.phpwcms-docu.de/installation_en.phtml

Ok i dowloaded it.
Delete the old dir, copy the new ...
Delete the database...
The problem is the same, because php code is the same when
it wants to create the admin account, and the user table structure
is the same, there are fields with not null, but with no default value,
which is missing from the insert sql command (in php code).

What are you implying... That nobody can ever install and login to phpWCMS and that this forum is full of "imaginary" posts from users who couldn't possibly be using this script?
You lost me somewhere in your reasoning... about working with BLOBs that aren't set to an "explicit" default? You can rest assured that if no DEFAULT value is specified ... MySQL automatically assigns one.

1.
- permissions are set properly (script creates the tables)
2. Ok iam a newbie:) But i dont understand it:
i modified the step2.php, because i always get this on that page:
"Check your admin user name and password!".
So the step2.php
[...]
if($err) echo "<p class=\"error\"><b>Check your admin user name and password!" . mysql_error() ."</b></p>";
[...]
and the error message is:
Field 'usr_var_structure' doesn't have a default value
(before the setup i deleted the tables, so the script created them after step1 )

Hi
don't mess around with the Setup-Script - if your Server is running correct, you don't have to change anything in the Script.
Try to use the Default Admin/Passwort for the first run - don't forget to make the Sign in the Checkbox for 'Create Admin Account' - maybe your Username and/or Passwort is to short.
Also try to set/unset 'use persistent db con' on the first Page.

with everything default:
- use default admin username and password and check the create admin checkbox
I get this error on the top:
"Check your admin user name and password!"
Ok i tried to set/unset 'use persistent db con' .
But i always get "Check your admin user name and password!"
at the 2. step.
(thats why i tried to echo the error message in the script)

Hi beerka,
Are you using an local installation, windows or linux?
What PHP-Version are running?
MySQL 5.x?

Solution?
Hi,
i had the same problem with the installation as described.
The solution for me was the following:
Make sure to do a CHMOD 777 for the file setup.conf.inc
before starting the setup.php script!
After that, everything runs ok with the setup (hope so
