    sbumba - 2005-08-11

    I've tried to find the answer to this and nothing I've read seems to work. Can someone please point out my error.

    My configuration is as follows:

    Mac OSX 10.3.8 - I have conflicts with versions newer than this
    Apache 1.3
    PHP 5.0.4
    mySQL 4.1.13

    I think this is a database communications issue. The database is setup and was successfully initialized. The user that I created the DB with and initialized with is the same user I'm using in the config.ini parameters as below:

    DATABASE_TYPE = SQL
    DATABASE_DSN = "xxxx@localhost/phpwiki"" target="_new">mysql://user:xxxx@localhost/phpwiki">;

    From what I've read in the documentation and in the forum, I should have everything right. So, what am I missing?

    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated as I just got started with all this and would really like to use it for a group project at my company. I had version 1.2.X working, but I want to additional features 1.3.x has to offer!

    Thanks in advance!

      No help, but sympathy.
      I installed 1.2.x in about 10 minutes and had it running, linking to a remote MySQL database.
      I screwed around with 1.3.10 and 1.3.11rc3 for 3 hours, and got nothing but blank pages. Tried both MySQL and DBA installs (though I don't know if the DBA had a chance of working; I'm on a cheap host without shell access, etc).

      I gave up and went back to 1.2.x
      The docs are missing something. Someone that know what they're doing should try a clean install following the instructions carefully, to see what's been left out.
