| by Peccavi on 2004/12/24 0:30:27 XAMPP 1.4.10a-win32 uses MySQL 1.4.7 which has issues with php4. Thank you Dave_L for pointing this out. I have changed my install of XAMPP to version 1.4.9 running php4. XOOPS 2.0.7.3 installs and runs without any flaw :) Happy Camper, Peccavi |

According to their post, there are issues with PHP < 5.0.3 RC2 and MySQL 1.4.7, which is what you're using. In XAMPP 1.4.10a, I think they removed PHP 4. Another option is to try using XOOPS 2.0.9 beta, which is intended to be compatible with PHP 5. I can't think of anything else to suggest, other than debugging your XOOPS install to isolate the problem, which could be very time-consuming. |

I guess you suggest that I back everything up and step back to Xampp 1.4.9 and reinstall everything. Peccavi |

| by Dave_L on 2004/12/22 13:55:42 I'm not sure what "dead links" are. Do you mean links that don't "do anything" when you click on them? If you view the HTML source for the page, what does the HTML for the link look like? Can you access the XOOPS control panel? If so, try updating the system module from Control Panel >> System Admin >> Modules Administration. Also, there were some issues with XAMPP 1.4.10. From http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html : Quote: The background: Some user wrote us some problems with PHP and MySQL 1.4.7 win32. So we have tested these problems and ... only PHP 5.0.3 RC2 could work with MySQL 4.1.7. But we cannot examine all cases. With PHP 4.x, a MySQL connection with password was not possible. For a more functionality, please work with the XAMPP version 1.4.9 with MySQL 4.0.21. For this moment we must wait for the adapting PHP and the new MySQL 1.4.7. |

| by carnuke on 2004/12/22 13:33:27 Peccavi, forgive me if this is off target I have not used Xampp, but I have successfully used XSAS on winXP. It automatically installs a working version of xoops.You may consider this as an alternative if no help comes up ... Richard |
