fatal msg with 1.8.4 install

posts: 46 Norway



I am having a slight problem with an 1.8.4 install. When running the install file I got a fatal message (couldn't open db\ tiki — mysql.sql). Looking in the script I understood that this error came from the script not finding the tiki tb_version and therefore couldn't run the script. I checked all the permissions were correct but it still wouldn't run. So I got a bit impatient and manually inserted the sql file. This went ok until when I logged in I discovered that there were no admin or editior groups (my admin username worked fine). I have created an admin and editor group and assigned permissions which all went fine.

However I am a bit concerned that there may be a problem (file missing, corrupt file etc) and am a bit reluctant to start filling up the site.

Can anyone advise?

ps. out of interest - Am I correct in thinking that its ok to run many tikis on the same server as long as each setup is under its own profile and using its own MySql database?

Hi

Firstly it just sounds like your missing the Basic Enabled profile. So to me it sounds like the installation is OK.

There is a .sql in profiles/ called something like BasicEnabled which setups the admin and editors groups.

You can run as many tikis as you like on one server. My total is now 43 tiki sites! on one server Ive 29 on another server.
