Installing PHPFusion 7 on a local pc.

I never had any problems with WAMP or MAMP.
You read the readme-en.html???

I don't like using Wamp, I would rather use the individual programs and run my server the right way, not the easy way as you get with Wamp.

If you had read my post, I did say I don't like using Wamp.

I did read the readme-en.html and it told me nothing. Just how to install it and to follow the on screen prompts. You must not have read it yourself to ask me if I had, because if you had of read it, you'd know that already.

Try the latest v7.01 release candidate. The setup process has been improved to be more informative in case of errors so you will probably find out quite easily what was the problem.

I am using or at least trying to lol, version 7.00.07 and that's the only one I can get from the site.

My apologies Rooger, I indeed not well read your question.
I guess it was quite late ;)

Download PHPFusion v7.01 RC3

Tried that version and same result as before.

Then you should play with your server's settings. Go to your php.ini and make sure you have the following settings for your test server:



This way, any error in the PHP source code will be revealed in the browser as soon as it gets executed. You should normally see error messages in the setup. If you don't, I can't tell you what's the source of the problem, but there's a chance that the database user cannot access the appropriate resources and the setup gets stuck because of that. Just to be sure, check the following:

1. You can connect to MySQL with the user and the password you chose for it
2. SHOW DATABASES; has to display more than "information_schema"

How to check all these?
1. Start -> Run -> type cmd and press Enter
2. in the Command Prompt window type mysql -u your_database_user -p
3. enter the password of that user
4. type show databases; and press Enter

If you see more than information_schema, you will have to make sure you have the necessary rights on the database you are trying to use.

5. write use information_schema; and press Enter
6. write select * from schema_privileges; and press Enter

Now you should see all the rights of the database user you have connected to your MySQL server.

Thanks man.
