Common Installation Issues

Errors

  • Connection FAILED. Ensure that you have created the database and that the credentials are correct.
    • Check to ensure the hostname, database name, user, and password you entered are correct and try again.
    • If the credentials are correct you may have MySQL old_passwords enabled. Disable old_passwords for your database or update your user's password:

      Code Block
      languagebash
      % mysql
      % SET SESSION old_passwords=0;
      % SET PASSWORD FOR 'username'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('password');

IIS

  • Submitting data reloads the current page
    • There is an issue with your web.config file. Try the following web.config file:

      Code Block
      <?xml version="1.0"?>
      <configuration>
         <system.webServer>
            <rewrite>
               <rules>
                  <rule name="Main Rule" stopProcessing="true">
                     <match url=".*" />
                     <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
                       <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
                       <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
                     </conditions>
                     <action type="Rewrite" url="index.php" />
                  </rule>
               </rules>
            </rewrite>
         </system.webServer>
      </configuration>

      Next, update /lib/init.php and make the following change:

      Code Block
      // define("HTACCESS", file_exists(ROOTWEBDIR . ".htaccess"));
      define("HTACCESS", true);
