Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Serious IE Issues, please help!Yeah, that crossed my mind after posting. I guess that’s pretty much the norm when it comes to IE.

In reply to: Serious IE Issues, please help!To anyone else, one of the editors copied their blog post from Gmail, which must have converted a ton of the characters. IE wasn’t too happy about those characters. 🙂 Of course, Firefox dealt with it just fine.

In reply to: Serious IE Issues, please help!Well, I figured out the problem. One of my posts had a TON of backslashes all over the place. What would have caused wordpress to add those? None of the other posts have any backslashes.

In reply to: Cannot proceed past step 1 during installationI tried the exact same steps on another server, using the same build, and it worked flawlessly. I know this must be a server configuration problem, but it would be nice to know exactly where the config problem is. I have other PHP applications on the server that work just fine, including SMF forums. Apparently, WordPress needs to publish some more detailed server requirements since they must be doing something odd or not very common when it comes to PHP.

In reply to: Cannot proceed past step 1 during installationIt’s cool. I can’t believe how difficult this is to solve.
Looked at the error logs, nothing. Many have referenced the php sendmail not working. I created a test file using this:
mail('email_address_here', 'test', $message);and the mail was sent successfully. So, I’m assuming everything is fine there. I’ve also changed the php memory to 20M since I’ve read that in a few places. This person had the EXACT same problem, but no resolution was ever provided:

I do appreciate all the help!

In reply to: install hangs after creating tablesThis is the exact problem I’m now having, and it seems many others have too. But, each post ends without resolution. Can someone please help and post a resolution to this? I’m sure it’s server settings related, but its obviously a very common problem.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Cannot proceed past step 1 during installationIt seems that many people have this problem, but there aren’t many solutions. I checked my database that’s created, all the tables are empty other than wp_options, which has 40 records. I added some echo statements into install.php and it’s simply dying right after the “Now we’re going to…” statement, or right before the first flush(); It does not execute ANYTHING past that point.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Cannot proceed past step 1 during installationAlright, interesting note. I downloaded WP v 2.0 and run the install, and I now get further. I get to where it says “Now we’re going to create the database tables and fill them with some default data.” and it’s just hanging there. Doesn’t say anything else. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

In reply to: Cannot proceed past step 1 during installationChanged the mem setting on the server and still no luck. 🙁
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Cannot proceed past step 1 during installationI tried adding the increase to the config file no luck. However the server may not allow it so I’ve contacted the host to see if they can modify. I’ll let you know if it works. In the meantime, feel free to post any other suggestions to find and fix this nasty little gremlin. 🙂

In reply to: Cannot proceed past step 1 during installationDarn, just tried that and still no luck. I’m amazed that ALL other PHP applications work just fine.

In reply to: Cannot proceed past step 1 during installationI used “Auto”.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Cannot proceed past step 1 during installationYeah, I’ve already confirmed that PHP files work, I just finished installing SMF (Simple Machine Forums) and it’s working great. I have other PHP applications too. It’s only WordPress that’s having issues. Any other suggestions?
