playing cmsms on windows enviroment.

[chief]

I discovered this nice program called XAMPP, it provides me with a live enviroment to build my websites before uploading them to the server, basically a php/mysql setup on my windows pc.

My problem is simple, I have completed developing my current website and I want to migrate it to the server, I create a database and import my sql from my pc, then I upload my php files, I run an install and I get this error

install/lib/classes/CMSInstallerPage5.class.php on line 182

I found a german response..... well I dont speak german... or read german.. anybody with an idea

I CANT BELIVE THIS, ALL I NEEDED TO CHANGE WAS THE PREFIX, ON THE LIVE SERVER I HAD IT AS now_ but on installation i left it as the default cms_


well, hope that helps someone sometime.

I have the same problem how exactly did you fix it please

[Dr.CSS]

In the config.php there is a line about the database prefix...

FTP to site edit/view it, look for it, change it and save...

I have done all that and the only difference to my previous installation is a different database name

no matter what I check and recheck I still get this error at the final step 5 of installation

Installing modules...
Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in public_html/cmsmadesimple/install/lib/classes/CMSInstallerPage5.class.php on line 182

Try taking out any non default modules including search before installing...

This is how I move sites, now it is easier if you FTP the whole site down to your comp. then put the original install folder back in then ftp to new site run install and the backup module and all it's folders and files are there, you just go to Backup Module interface and restore that file you made on the older site...
