Guest Posted July 24, 2003 Posted July 24, 2003 OK now I'm not a newbie to using PHP / Mysql at all. As you can see I have a fully functional site up and running at http://www.wickedhouseparty.org on the same server using these two programs. I am using PHP 4.2.1 and Mysql (cant remember version but its fairly recent) on a Windows 2000 server box I followed the instructions to a T (they were very simple). Unzipped to the home dir. Copied the Catalog to the root dir. Went to the catalog/install URL. But nothing at all happens. Just a blank screen and nothing. Check it for yourself... http://www.computerologyconsulting.com/ferris I even tried it all with the hardcoded IP and URL http://64.180.231.170/portal2/computerolog...stall/index.php Any ideas? Anyone? I am expecting I should get a page full of fields to enter about my mysql connection at this point but... nothing. HALP. Thx
Guest Posted July 24, 2003 Posted July 24, 2003 Oh yea.. just so I dont get some DUH type suggestions... - Script access is enabled in IIS - Write access is enabled in IIS - Permissions are all set for IUSR
Guest Posted July 24, 2003 Posted July 24, 2003 you should try http://64.180.231.170/portal2/computerolog...all/install.php HTH The_Bear
jpf Posted July 24, 2003 Posted July 24, 2003 The problem is that IIS is looking for one of the following files: index.htm default.htm default.asp iisstart.asp Is is not even looking for: index.php or default.php To fix this open up IIS (Start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Internet Information Services) Browse to your website listing. Right click and go to properties then select the DOCUMENTS tab. Click on (if off) "Enable Default Document" Make sure these are listed - if not add them: index.htm default.htm index.php default.php Click Apply then OK. Retry loading your pages. If still does not load - then PHP needs to be loaded as a ISAPI filter.
Guest Posted July 25, 2003 Posted July 25, 2003 I have been restarting the server a lot lately trying to get this thing to work... Somehow in the process my NIC driver got corrupted... Anyways I already did the home directory stuff, I am trying to work through the Win32 help files making changes to the PHP.INI and code as neccesary. Still havent even gotten so much as an error message though... I'll keep it posted. Does anyone have any idea why I would go to a PHP page of osCommerce and get nothing but a blank browser window? My ISAPI is working correctly for my other site AOK and the permissions and scripting is all enabled... What a weird damn problem. Thanks for your help... it is very appreciated.. :-)
Daemonj Posted July 25, 2003 Posted July 25, 2003 Just for grins and giggles, put a phpinfo.php page in the catalog folder and then try calling it. If it comes up, then PHP is working fine. If it does not, then it gives you an idea of where to look for the problem. ;) "Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocre minds.

Guest Posted July 25, 2003 Posted July 25, 2003 :lol: Well I humoured you on your giggles. (sorry for the bad pun I had to do it... ) The PHPinfo script loads fine. Try it out http://64.180.231.170/catalog/phpinfo.php WARG This is driving me nuts. I've got e-xoops totally rocking on this server using PHP and SQL, and I used to use phpbb who use the same server apps.

(sorry for the bad pun I had to do it... ) Yeah, yeah - everyone thinks they're a comedian. ;) LOL Is that phpinfo.php file in the catalog folder that you are trying to work out of? The PHPinfo script loads fine. Try it out http://64.180.231.170/catalog/phpinfo.php WARG This is driving me nuts. I've got e-xoops totally rocking on this server using PHP and SQL, and I used to use phpbb who use the same server apps. Okay, what release of osC are you working with (e.g. MS1, MS2, CVS)?

Guest Posted July 25, 2003 Posted July 25, 2003 Is that phpinfo.php file in the catalog folder that you are trying to work out of? Yep. So I know that scripting works. 'tis why I'm flabbergasted. Okay, what release of osC are you working with (e.g. MS1, MS2, CVS)? The version in the snapshot as of yesterday.
Guest Posted July 25, 2003 Posted July 25, 2003 Perhaps theres something in that PHP.ini that is killing the script?
