I press "Let's Go!" and that's it!
« on: August 30, 2004, 10:00:59 pm »
Hey!
I wanted to host Coppermine Gallery on my own computer, so installed newest Apache v1.3.31, then newest PHP 5.0.1 with GD. Everything seems to be fine with my server and with PHP scripts handling but it doesn't work  :-[

The only thing I manage to do is to fill in the first form, press "Let's Go!" button and I can see only Coppermine Gallery logo at the top of the page and nothing else.

I'm not good in PHP scripts debugging and speaking trully I have no appropriate software installed so I have absolutelly no idea what's happening. Server doesn't display any error even if I have full debuging mode enabled :-[

If you have any hint that could help me, please write  :-\\

Do you have MySQL 4.1 or greater installed and working properly?
What operating system?
You might want to use PHP 4.3.xxx b/c 5.x is new and may require changes to Coppermine to work properly.

I actually wanted to use hosted database from freesql.org. I'm sure my database works without any problems (I can login using PHPMyAdmin 2.2.0). Database is running on MySQL 4.0.13, is it possible that my problem lies here? If so can I somehow make Coppermine Gallery write some debuging information? It doesn't say anything, just Coppermine logo on the top of the page. Anyway, I can install MySQL and check if there are some connection attempts.

Now I will try to use PHP 4.3.xxx and let you know if this solves my problems.

Thanks very much for suggestions.

PHP5, unless specifically configured, doesn't come with MySQL support at all.  That's just one of many differences between 4.xx and 5.xx.  AFAIK the latest stable release of Coppermine hasn't been really looked at for compatibility with 5.xx.

Ok, I got it working on PHP 4.3.8 without any problems. My fault was probably what you said in post above. Anyway, I can use a little bit older version of PHP until you test Coppermine on PHP5.

Thanks very much for help ... good job!!  ;D

Coppermine has been tested with PHP5 and should work, you need to enable register_long_arrays though in php.ini
Excuse, but I have no privileges for change of adjustments in a file php.ini. Whether there is other way of the decision of a problem? Or I should replace one variables and functions with others to solve a problem by hands?
The big troubles with old procedures and new standards :-(

ask your webhost to do those settings, won't hurt them. Another workaround would be replacement of all vars in the code (a lot of manual work), or using the devel version from the cvs (no support for the devel version though).

Hi,

I'm having the same problem as mentioned: I press "Let's Do !" and nothing happens.

I seem to comply with the minimum requirements (I use all stable packages from Debian):
Apache: Version: 1.3.26-0woody3
Mysql: Version: 3.23.49-8
PHP4: Version: 4:4.1.2-6woody3

I also completed the chmod-stuff... but no solution.

Any ideas ?

Had a night sleep and now I found the solution... I had to install the package php4-mysql.

After that it worked...

Hoster has declared, that does not wish to do changes necessary for me owing to security reasons. His words: " read the documentation and copy one functions on others ". :-(
Who can help me?
Somebody has that version copperminde which would work in PHP5 without intervention in adjustments PHP?

There's no "special" coppermine version that will work with PHP5 while another doesn't. If your webhost is reluctant to enable register_long for you, you'll probably run into problems with other PHP scripts in the future as well. Every upgrade will be a pain. I suggest considering moving to another webhost, as there's currently no need to run PHP5 yet - PHP4 is fine.

Let me repeat: there's no need to turn register_globals on to make coppermine work. Someone posted this silly idea on this board and now everyone is repeating it. Don't enable register_globals! Don't enable register_globals! Don't enable register_globals!
Make sure you CHMODed as suggested in the docs.
