ez3.9 on php 5

Friday 15 June 2007 10:13:32 am

I would like to try out EZ Publish on PHP5 on OS X.

Installation with the setup wizard worked almost.

My system can be read at:
http://www.nuna.no/sitereginfo.txt

First I created a databse with the MySQL Administrator tool. This database couldent be used because the setupwiz said it had to be a UTF-8 one. I cant find a way with the MySQL Administrator to make the database be a UTF-8. So I tried with phpmyadmin which worked and it made the database according to this SQL instructions.

" CREATE DATABASE `ez` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci; "

When the setupwizard started up I got:
«Missed some directories
eZ publish cannot create some important directories, without this the setup cannot finish and parts of eZ publish will fail.
The nonexistent directories are: var/cache/codepages var/cache/content var/cache/ini var/cache/override var/cache/template var/cache/template/process var/cache/template/tree var/cache/texttoimage var/cache/translation var/log var/storage/original var/storage/reference var/storage/variations »

Then I got the permission error one the newly added folders and had to re-run:

chmod -R ug+rwx (worked)
chown -R www:www (dident work)

so I did:
chmod -R a+rwx (worked)

Then the setupwiz worked nice some pages ahead.

After clicking "next" on the «Site Registration» page, the setupwizard just stops. It is 92% finished. The browser stops after 3-4 minutes asking what to do with a index.php file. I download the file and it is blank.

When I click Next another time The wizard says:
* EZSW-004Failed inserting data to mysql
Table 'ezapprove_items' already exists
* EZSW-040Failed to initialize site package 'ezwebin_site'

If I try to go to the site URL ( http://macerland.local/ez39/index.php/ezwebin_site)
it starts up the setup process from start.

If you need more information to help me on this, please ask. Thanks for any help.

Create a new empty db / cleare the one tou are using.
It's corrupted anyway since it stopped half way the first time.
btw 12mb is to little to, so might have been that causing you trouble also. Even though eZ Publish will force it up to 42 if it is beneath that.

This might give you some hints. Like: What table type are you using, if it's mysql5 turn of strict mode, are you using the correct mysql credentials and so on..

Hi Erland

Can you tell me which revision of the PHP 5 port you are using? And which site package are you installing? Did you try with plain too?
