Geeklog Forums

Hi: I'm having a little problem with the installation script of gl 1.3.5. Actually, after asking the path for geeklog in the step 1, I hit the next button and get to the step 1 again. I know I'm using the right path (/var/www/htdocs/geeklog). I think the rights are correctly set.. Does this script write any file at all?...Is my database wrongly configured (I have created the database geeklog). The user to connect to the database is still root...when I get it to work, I will surely change it... Thanks a lot Gabriel.

It sounds like you have register_globals=off in your php.ini file. Change that to on and the install should work.

Sorry..but I'm not much of a php ninja myself...(well..not even a newbie). I'm actually using php 4.2.1, and I can't seem to find a php.ini where it should oftenly be (that would be /usr/local/lib/php/php.ini or something). Should I just paste some php.ini file from somewhere else? Thanks a LOT! Gabriel

Create a file, let's call it test.php, which contains just this one line:

<? phpinfo(); ?>

Upload it and load it into your browser. It will give you the path to your php.ini file. In my case, it says:

Configuration File (php.ini) Path: /usr/local/lib/php.ini
