Problem with Installation after hit next at site registration page

I am running
Fedora Core 2
Apache 2.0.4
MySQL 4.0.21
PHP 4.3.8

Had a couple other issues so far with the install, but overall it's going smoothly. That mimtype in HTTPD.conf would be huge in the documentation somwhere if you think about it.

But my issue now is, it connects to the database, it goes through what seems like the entire process. But when it comes to the site registration page during install I fill in the info and click next and then it just gives me this.

Fatal error: eZ publish did not finish it's request

The execution of eZ publish was abruptly ended, the debug output is present below.

And no output as to what the debug output is.
My server is a pentium 4 1.6GHz, 512MG Ram, 40GB HD. Shouldn't have much of a problem. The php.ini max_memory_limit is set to 16MB.

Can anyone offer some suggestions?

All,

Rather than start a new thread for the same issue I'll just add that I'm seeing the same error message after clicking next at the "Site Registration", 92% complete, screen when trying to install the latest stable release of eZ (3.4.2). It runs for many seconds then the error comes up (with no debug output).

Fatal error: eZ publish did not finish its request

The execution of eZ publish was abruptly ended, the debug output is present below.

And no output as to what the debug output is. My question would be is PHP 4.3.2 the absolute minimum version or would 4.3.1 work too? My host has 4.3.1 and doesn't have plans to upgrade any time soon. But I see that Robert is using 4.3.8 and still has the same issue so that leads me to think it's not PHP but something else. Finetune is only reporting the Insufficient PHP version issue at this time. I'm connecting to MySQL and creating the tables but the install still fails.

I am using:
SunOS 5.9
PHP 4.3.1 (max_execution_time 30)
Apache/1.3.26
MySQL 3.23.55

phpinfo() is not reporting anything about max_memory_limit.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated for this issue.

Thanks,
Todd

I've made a change to my system to test. I increased my max_memory_limit in the php.ini file to 24MBs and increased the time for PHP to process a script to 45 seconds from 30. Still Nothing. I don't have a clue unless someone else out there can point me to what I'm doing wrong.

I set the user permissions on the directory exactly the way advised.

Ok. I've been constantly scouring the postings trying to identify what is going on here. I restarted the install process and this time I put it as basic a site as possible. But When I get to the finish and it redirects me to the final either the user or admin page, it gives me the above error with no debug.

I thought this might be a problem with Fedora but since someone else has experience this I don't think that's the case. Is there anyone else with this problem?

hi
I use suse 9.1 and php 4.3.6 and MySql 4.0.21

i have the same Erros all day long. I install it now the 6 th try and
have used all variations. i have buy too the WYSIWYG Editor, but nothing will
run, when i use the installer. The first install the script tells me, that i have to change to 12M - i have change more then three times - it will first run complete by 16M.

the next steps are O.K. - Database and all will correct install, but by the final step after Registration - i become the Links to Site and Admin what is telling me the URL is for that in /content/view/full/2/ - but there is no dir, and no content.

when i klick again the main URL - it display the starting Side, but each link is not Online !! I cant login to admin or anything else.

The system dont want work - i have the feeling, that the Software not point to the right dirs. i have killed the cache and after that, the System will give me Errors again about not enough Memory ????

I dont understand this - so i have using exact all Steps by the Installer and nothing will work ??

Is there anybody what have an idea ???

The Link is www.sid61.de (i just install it now again)
thanks

Sven,
I think you have chosen to use host matching but did not setup your apache for this. Try selecting URI matching instead.

Hi, another guess in the same direction as Frederik did:
Are you able / do you want to set up your virtual host for that installation? If you are on a shared host, you can't do this.
So, if you are on a shared host, you should call the installer with "http://www.blabla.de/index.php" . This will setup the site with "URI matching", as Frederik said. After the setup, your links should contain this "index.php".
If your links don't contain the "index.php", but are like http://www.blabla.de/content/view/full/4711", you will need to have Rewrite Rules in your virtual host. You need a shared or dedicated server to be able to do this.

BTW: There are no directories "content" or so in the filesystem of ezPublish. This is perfect behaviour. ezPublish passes all requests (well, except Images etc) through it's index.php. That file analyses the complete URL and creates the response.
So, all calls must be processed by index.php, either by putting it into the URLs OR by creating appropriate rewrite rules for your virtual host, which "force" most of the requests to be passed to index.php.
So, http://www.blabla.de/content/view/full/4711 (or http://www.blabla.de/index.php/content/view/full/4711, if you don't have rewrite rules) means: "Hey ezPublish! Ask Module "content" for a "full" view of the node 4711 and give me the HTML page for this!".

Also note, that Apache 2 is not recommended (see http://ez.no/ez_publish/info/requirements). You may need the "pathinfo" directive for Apache 2 to allow such "virtual" URLS like http://www.blabla.de/index.php/content/view/full/4711 ("virtual" means, that there is no such file in the filesystem.... Apache must see, that there is an index.php and pass the complete URL).
Does this help a bit?
