Install Problem

[xtremeoff-road]

When attempting to install to a new install of 3.5 B4 all I get is a blank page??? I have double checked everything so I cannot think of what could be going wrong. The install page with the options pulls up fine, but as soon as I click install...boom white page??

Are you talking about installing vBulletin, or CMPS?

[xtremeoff-road]

LOL I am sorry, when attempting to install the new CMPS.

Maybe try re-uploading everything, and making sure all the new files are making it to the right locations?

[xtremeoff-road]

Gee, that's helpful. :rolleyes:

There is a problem with installing to beta 4. The page on step 2 renders blank in the browser, but source includes...

Invalid SQL:

CREATE TABLE adv_modules (
modid smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
title varchar(100) NOT NULL default '',
identifier varchar(100) NOT NULL default '',
filename text NOT NULL,
inctype varchar(20) NOT NULL default '',
modcol smallint(3) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
displayorder smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
templatelist varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
userperms varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
parent varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
active smallint(3) unsigned NOT NULL default '1',
colspan smallint(3) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
formcode text NOT NULL,
cleanoutput smallint(3) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
useshell smallint(3) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',

options text NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (modid),
KEY identifier (identifier)
) TYPE=MyISAM;

MySQL Error : Table 'adv_modules' already exists
Error Number : 1050

And no, adv_modules definitely did not exist before running vbacmps_install.php.

RC1 is already being used on www.vbulletin.com, you might wanna wait till it is released in the next couple days. Then install the new CMPS / Gallery for that. I have installed both on 3.5 B4 with no issues. Just a thought. If you are still having issues tomorrow call me and maybe we can figure it out.. You have my number

[zenithrs@bigpon]

I have installed both on 3.5 B4 with no issues.
Congrats. Doesn't solve the problem here though.

Fact is, adv_modules does not exist before running vbacmps_install.php. Step 2 creates the adv_pages and adv_modules tables then bombs with the above 1050 on adv_modules.

If that table is there and you did not get any SQL errors the first time you ran the script then the install is complete.

[zenithrs@bigpon]

Brian, first time script ran delivered the same sql error.

I can uninstall, check via phpmyadmin that all the adv_ tables are gone, then run the install script and same result... adv_modules gets created but bombs out with "adv_modules already exists"

I've tracked this down to a problem with gzip compression in vb3.5.

Turn of gzip in admincp and all will go smooth.

Same problem as http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=148218

Hi
I have a problem with CMPS and I can't post a new thread even if i'm logged :-(

I've download the CMPS : vbadvanced_cmps_2_0_rc2_(vb_3_5)_ and i don't have the global.php file in the /forum directory.

Can anyone help me please??

[mholtum]

the global.php file is part of vbulletin, not cmps

[dalais_dj]

the global.php file is part of vbulletin, not cmps

Thanks

But how do I install the CMPS ?? In the installation guide they say that i must modify the global.php file :confused:

[Brian]

You modify the global.php file that comes with vBulletin.
