Failure at Step 3’s upgrade_all() (no errors!)
-
Hi there,
I’ve been trying the past two days to get this lovely package installed, but it’s throwing me a serious curve ball. I’m running on Win2k with Apache 2.x (w/ mod_rewrite), PHP 4.3 and MySQL 4.0.17. I’ve downloaded the v1.2 .zip file for installation.
I edit the sample config and rename as appropriate. Steps 1 and 2 of the installation work just fine (aside from the URL input usually not having the /wordpress subdirectory). Step 3 on the other hand is where things go wrong. When I attempt Step 3, output goes as far<h1>Step 3</h1>
, then craps out without a single error message (I even added error_reporting(E_ALL) to the install.php).
So I went into upgrade_functions.php to add some echo statements and find where it dies. It gets through upgrade_071() ok, but dies right when it gets to upgrade_072(). Commenting out the upgrade functions will complete the installation process, giving me a valid admin login and password, but after logging in there are SQL errors all over the place, indicating that what’s happening in those upgrade functions is required even for a new installation.
Does anyone have an idea as to where/why this is failing? The upgrade functions are a bloody mess, and I really don’t want to go poking through them a line at a time unless I really have to, nor do I understand why these fairly lengthy SQL statements weren’t put into external .sql files for easier and cleaner use.
Thanks for your help.
