  • Database

    Wednesday 24 November 2010 12:00:55 pm

    Sam

    My host is 1and1. I have several mysql databases. My problem is, on the database initialization, i'm not asked which database to use i.e:


    Servername:
    Port:
    Username:
    Password:
    Socket (optional):
    database: <<<<<<(missing)

    So when i get to the stage of site access, i'm presented my username as the database of choice. For my, the Username & Database name are different.
    As a result, i can't install ezpublish.
    How can i resolve this problem?

      Step 5 ("Database initialization") is where you tell the wizard how to connect to the database server. The wizard will display the available databases and suggest you to choose one during step 9 ("Site details").

  • AcceptPathInfo On

    Wednesday 24 November 2010 12:01:29 pm

    Antun Basic

    I have started to install eZ Publish on to my host server. When set english as default language i go to next step i get error notice:

    You need to enable AcceptPathInfo in your Apache config file, if you're using apache 2.x. If you're running apache 1.3, eZ Publish will not run in CGI mode.

    Check the Apache documentation, or enter the following into your httpd.conf file.
    AcceptPathInfo On

    My host has Apache 2.x but i can't edit httpd.conf file because i don't have access to it. I got answer from my host provider that i can do the same thing with .htaccess file but i do not know how to do that. I have tried all the options already and now i ask you for help!

    Thank you

  • Where can I find the admin interface ??

    Wednesday 24 November 2010 12:02:46 pm

    In Site details i write:
    Tittle : My Site Name
    Site URL : http://www.MySiteName.com
    User Path: my_site_name
    Admin Path: my_site_Name_admin

    But In Finished I see:
    URL: User Site (Link=Eng) Admin site (Link= my_site_name_admin)

    The links go nowhere.

    Try the URL given in an answer above (Try - Log in to the administration interface of eZ publish: http://mysite.com/intranet/index.php/plain_site_admin), with the word "intranet" and it is not. But I can not log in to the administration interface of eZ publish.

    Where can I find the admin interface : http://ez.no/var/doc/storage/imag...r/14645-3-eng-GB/view_folder_doc.png

    Please help.

    Any idea?

  • db utf error

    iamageneralist

    I am getting an error that indicates "the setup wizard wants to create the site in [utf-8] but the database has been created using character set [iso-8859-1]" however in my db manager console it indicates "MySQL charset: UTF-8 Unicode (utf8)" which would seem to indicate I have it set up the way it is supposed to be but ez is not recognizing it. I have tried both the MySQL and the MySQL improved options and they both get stuck on this same error.

  • Site Security htaccess message

    Wednesday 24 November 2010 12:03:30 pm

    Dante

    Here is what I get:


    Site security

    Your site is not running in a virtual host mode, this is insecure. It is recommended to run eZ Publish in virtual host mode. If you do not have the possibility to use virtual host mode, you should follow the instructions below about how to install an .htaccess file. The .htaccess file tells the web server to restrict the access to certain files.

    If you have shell access, you can run the following commands.

    cd /hsphere/local/home/dante22e/givespamachance.com/spamville
    cp .htaccess_root .htaccess

    If you do not have shell access, you will have to copy the file using an FTP client or ask your hosting provider to do this for you.

    ----

    help.

    My web hosting service is useless and I can't understand what to do. I have WebShell editor to play with the files/folders.
