Failing at Step 3

Help with getting the CMS CORE package up and running. This does not include 3rd party modules, PHP scripts, anything downloaded via module manager or from any external source.

Failing at Step 3

Post by Anonymous »

I'm trying to install the CMS and at step three, everything goes well and click to continue, yet it loops me back to the first step again? I'm not given any sort of error message, and trying to go through again just leads to the same problem.

Any suggestions?

It seems my second post was gobbled up by the server. Either way, I've been experimenting with some things and I have found that after Step Two is completed, the button to move onto Step Four has an improper URL for some reason. It's listed as being /cmsmadesimple-0.8.2/install/install.php# rather than something like the previous buttons, /cmsmadesimple-0.8.2/install/install.php?page=3#

That being said, simply going to the URL manually doesn't help. The installer does finish, but when I attempt to go to the new site I get this error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in cmsmadesimple-0.8.2/include.php on line 93

I'm wondering if anyone has dealt with this at all, or has any sort of solution. The server I am attempting to do this on is using Debian Linux, PHP 4.3.10-2, MySQL and PostgreSQL. I've tried both database types with change. I've also tried installing the previous version, 0.8.1 and encountered the same problem.

This is definatly a new one...

Step 3 doesn't have a page number in the URL, because it's a form. The page number should be in a hidden form field instead.

I'm wondering if this has something to do with a browser bug of some sort. I believe it does some kind of javascript thing when you click the button, and for some reason, it could be flaking out on you.

Well, it turns out you were correct. For some reason, my browser of choice http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omniweb/ wouldn't submit the form I suppose. I downloaded Firefox and it was able to submit the form, my installation is working now.

Thanks for the help. Hopefully something can be fixed for Omniweb in the future, otherwise using a different browser worked fine.

I do have Omniweb installed on my Mac at work. I'll see if I can figure out why it's not working. Thanks.
