Problem With Installation

Recommended Posts

I have just tried to install 2.2 rc 2a on my server, and whilst it goes through the install process and tells me it was a success, no tables get written to the database.

 

I have tried this several times and I know the database name, user name and table name are correct and that the user has the appropriate permissions on the database.

 

Has anyone else had this problem and does anyone know a good way to fix it?

After doing some research the problem is likely that I am using PHP5 - could someone point me to the guide for setting oscommerce up to work with 5 as I can't seem to find it (just references of people talking about making the changes!)

Toby,

 

You need to ensure that you have register_long_arrays enabled on your server. This is disabled by default on PHP5

Edit the .htaccess file in your catalog (or root) directory and add the line:

 

php_value register_long_arrays 1

 

Then re-run the installation

 

HTH,

Chris
