Installation problems

[Gitta]

I've been trying to install Indexu lite version, but I haven't got any success.

First of all, Intall.php doesn't allow me to configure mysql-connection, so database doesn't create.
If I try to configure the settings by myself and afterwards when I go to admin panel, it doesn't allow me to access admin area.
If I go to look at the site it keeps saying:
"Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/customers/hevosinfo/public_html/hakemisto/index.php on line 25"

/ (that's index.php)

The same warning about mysql_num_rows(): keeps on coming on every single page.

My server is using PHP Version 4.3.6, is that the reason for the warning message?

And yep, I tried to CHMOD everything with 777, but that did'n help. I'm not very familiar with php and mysql, so I have no idea where the problem is.

By the way....
Does your email addresses work or don't you ever answer to your emails (partner@)? I sent an email but never got answer....

I thought to buy indexu, but now I feel that I'm not going to spend my money to something that I can't make work ;(

hello,

I am experiencing the exact same problem - install.php does not create a mysql table even though I did provide the correct settings.

Hello,

anybody reading this forum at all?

I thought that indexu was really a good product, but if install does not work and support neither, I will have to look for another product.

Anybody able to suggest one?

Greetz,

well. without trying to give a smartaleck answer. either there is problem with the host or the infomation you provided was not correct or you uploaded the files improperly.

I realize that it can be frustrating sometimes but I have installed that script several times and it does work. when it didn't work for me it was always something that I did incorrectly. ALWAYS.

Allso got it installed and running perfect

check your setup again !

remember to keep the info in ex:

"localhost"; inside the quotes.

and

$admin_username = 'admin';
$admin_password = 'password;

allso important to check the paths! double check with your host
that you entered the correct base_path !!

okay, so i managed to fix some errors myself, now, i get the following showing whenever i want to enter admin:

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /srv/www/htdocs/web0/html/index/lib/misc.lib.php on line 59

Session Update: Table 'usr_web0_1.idx_sessions' doesn't exist


obviously, indexu does not create tables, i could create them manually, but how come it won't create them, i entered the correct values, all quoted and the base path is definately correct - it's my server.

iLLuSioN, thanks for your suggestions so far.

i checked everything again today, everything goes well.

First of all, Intall.php doesn't allow me to configure mysql-connection, so database doesn't create.

If database is failed at the beginning, indexu won't work. Please check again your mysql account.

Database checklist:
- username: if you use cpanel, your username will be 'yourftplogin_dbusername'
- password: your password for this mysql account
- database name: if you use cpanel -> 'yourftplogin_dbname'
- host: in most case is 'localhost'
- don't forget to assign privilage for the mysql user to access the database, if you use cpanel, assign in mysql section

I myself often forgot the last step, so please check again your database privilage.

The readme / install directory file doesnt even have all of the instructions. its missing step #6...what a joke. I am having problems myself as i am missing all of the instructions.

I'm having trouble installing as well. I followed the instructions step-by-step and granted permissions through cpanel. The tables are not created, and I get the following error when trying to access admin

Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /home/jamaicat/public_html/indexu/application.php on line 259

My problem is that I get this error "Base path does not contain Indexu files" even though everything is set up correctly. How do I know this??? because on one site it worked out great, but on 5 others I get this error.

I use the older version of IndexU and have been happy with that, but I want to try this free version before buying the $99 one.

The path is incorrect.
