Title: PHP Install error
Post by: touchstone57 on January 14, 2007, 05:30:39 AM: So I managed to get a nice webspace
http://www.110mb.com/

But already Im having problems. Im trying to install subdreamer v2.2.3 (PHP) on my webspace. I managed to upload all the required files and run the install scrips, then it said created succesfully. But after going on my home page I get an error message that I have been unable to fix and im completely baffled.

Something like this
"Database error in Subdreamer

Invalid SQL: SELECT pluginpath, displayname, authorname FROM sd_dndplugins WHERE pluginid = '2'
Error: Table 'touchstone_sub.sd_dndplugins' doesn't exist
Error number: 1146
Date: Sunday 14th 2007f January 2007 01:24:29 PM
File: http://touchstone.110mb.com/index.php"

Im not sure what this can mean. Ive tried looking everywhere but I cant find anything, I tried to use their help forums but for some strange reason I couldnt register and it doesnt cover the error anywhere in the manual.
http://www.subdreamer.com/manuals/index.php

So im asking if anyone can help me please!

Thanks

Post by: touchstone57 on January 14, 2007, 10:36:08 AM: Well heres what I did.

I created a MySQL database with the webspace, I then ran the startup script and filled in necesary information about the database. It said "site created succesfully!" when I clicked on it the error message came up. Im not sure where I could have gone wrong, but in the manual it says I should CHMOD (file permissions) to 777. I did this with all available files but I could not locate
4) ./admin/backup/
5) ./admin/languages/Custom_Language.php
to CHMOD them,

And I have tried to install it many times always comng up with the same error.

Cany any one suggest a free, easy to use PHP client for my site?

Post by: Rob Pomeroy on January 14, 2007, 02:33:48 PM: "PHP client"? What do you mean? PHP is an interpreted language, typically (but not exclusively) running on a web server. There is no "PHP client", per se.

If you're after a free CMS though, that's a different matter. Google for "open source CMS" and happy reading.

What do you mean you couldn't find them, what ever your going to put on your website you should know the location, what exactly are you installing so I could have a look?

Looking at your webhosts list of supported features, PHP isn't one of them, yet they list PHPMyAdmin...hum :-?. If Subdreamer is PHP based, I'm not sure it is going to work. Your host does support ASP I see, so make sure your CMS is ASP based. I am not familiar with Subdreamer, so it may be PHP capable...just a shot in the dark. When in doubt, contact your webhost and ask if they support use of Subdreamer. My host will install just about anything I need as long as it doesn't present a security risk to their servers. Good Luck.

The clue is in the error message. A webserver that isn't running PHP would not generate PHP error messages...

But... way to resurrect an old post. ;)
