trouble with install, path problems?
 Top

  • I've installed PN about 10 times now over the past week (.726=9 .750=1), all on windows boxes and every time the installs went PERFECTLY (except when one of my windows boxes blew a mysql fuse)

    I'm trying to install it on a sun server @ my ISP(for details go to http://www.inficad.com/~elvis/phpinfo )

    for some stinking reason the paths aren't being read correctly when trying to load pnadodb/adodb.inc.php. When I fudged the path to force that to load properly I discovered the path problem was universal...

    to see what this problem looks like.... http://www.inficad.com/~elvis/community/install.php

    oh, just to be sure I didn't have a corrupt copy of PN I extracted it, installed it on my desktop at home, and then copied it to the server... same result.

    Someone please help......
  • check/compare the include_path options for PHP

  • That was the issue. My isp didn't include "." in the include path. I fixed it, and then Ramen (ramenfest.org) gave me a nice little generic script to put on all the 'root' pages for the site.
    /***********************/
    $PATH = array('.', 'include', '/usr/local/lib/php');
    ini_set('include_path', join(strstr(PHP_OS, 'WIN') ? ';' : ':', $PATH));
    /***********************/

  • It would be better to put the includ path modifier in an .htaccess file or php.ini file depending on how your PHP is set up.
