CPG 1.6 install on new VPS - Fails after DB selection step

<< < (2/2)

Hello Ron,

Thanks for the support!  No worries about the "troubles".  I tried the competition and came back to Coppermine for a good reason :)

About the DB password, you were right, it had a single quote in it (was actually starting with a single quote).  I changed it to simple alpha-numeric and re-cloned from github. 

However I noticed two things:

1.  At pretty much every step, I had to click "Next step" twice or more.  No error messages.  Please note that PHP and Apache are currently configured to show (display) errors on the screen as well as in the logs.
2.  At the database step, I entered the DB credentials, clicked test connection (to which it said Connection successful) then I click Next step only to be presented with the same screen over & over.

At this point I deleted the entire folder, and used the cpg_installer_stub.php script to install fresh and selected CPG Release 1.6.15

Followed the normal install steps (I was also hit by the double clicks on "Next steps" again), then I got to the dreaded DB step which only came back up each time I hit "Next step.

Restart from scratch, delete everything, re-upload the stub install script and this time I selected the red option at the bottom (latest dev code or something similar)

Then got past the DB step without errors!

However at the final step, I got:


--- Code: ---Notice: Undefined index: db_typedb_hostdb_userdb_passworddb_namedb_prefix in /var/www/html/coppermine/install.php on line 1715
--- End code ---

But the site seems to work well (except a small issue with the skin/theme -> see screenshot).

My bad  ::) ... corrected.

Hey there,

do I need to reinstall or do anything else before I roll out the site?

Nope ... should be good to go.

Thats great!

Thanks a lot for your time and support!
