Title: PHP-Nuke
Post by: Dave on March 05, 2003, 04:37:10 AM
I can't seem to get PHP-Nuke (http://phpnuke.org) to install on SME 5.6. It seems to go into some kind of loop when I try to load admin.php for the first time. Also, Nuke seems to want to exist in the root of the website, and I've had mixed results with trying to install it in an i-bay, mostly the same loop where the browser sits there loading the page eternally. Any ideas?

My site (http://hale.dyndns.org) is a PHP-Nuke site that I've been running for almost a year now...

What I did was extract from the IBAY name (not the html dir) than I deleted /html and renamed the php-nuke folder to html. Make sure you have the settings correct for in the config concerning the database and such.

That should get ya started. :)

I had the same problem, but it was my own stupid fault! I had an old version of nuke config files in the directory, so it was reading the old one's and not the new one's. Just kept me on that loop until i relieased the folly of my ways

What versions of SME server and PHP-Nuke are you using?

I just upgraded (about 2 weeks ago) to SME 5.6 and I'm currently using PHP-Nuke 6.0 (I started with 5.0 in the beginning).

As soon as 6.5 gets released I plan on doing that upgrade too. :)

Okay, I was messing around with a different package that works like PHP-Nuke, called e107. It's installer is telling me that it can't connect to mySQL and I bet that Nuke is having the same problem. I have installed phpmyadmin and can connect to it with no problems. Any ideas?
BTW: Very nice website Jim, I'll add it to my links section when my site goes up.

Well, I got e107 to install, what I had to do was set a password for root in phpmyadmin, I thought that the server would have made it the same as my system's root password... Now I'll have to give Nuke another shot.
