Did that fix your problem or were you still unable to complete the installation?

I have 2.0.2 running, with news set as home, and Recent Topics set as center block center. Recent topics always appears above the news, no matter what weight I give it, unless I'm using Easy Theme (from www.cowgar.com)

I like the way easy theme lets me place the center blocks below the news, but is this an anomily? Can I place news above the Recent Topics in the default themes?

Thanks

Yes, we need this added in the next update.

Part V: troubleshooting

If the following the steps in parts I - IV did not yield a working database for your XOOPS installation, then you'll most likely need some hand-holding. You can get this online (even here in this forum), but you will need to be very explicit and forthcoming about your setup. Take screenshots of every step that you take (or copy every command you issue) and present them with the results.

An easier way to troubleshoot is to find a knowledgable friend who is willing to help you out for a few hours. If you can convince someone to do this, try to make it convenient for them by meeting them where they want (if possible). If your site is hosted, this shouldn't be a problem, since all one needs is an Internet connection (e.g., a local library in your friend's area). If you can afford it, make absolutely sure that you at least feed that person (as a thank you for the courtesy) either at the time, or afterwards (dinner) or both.

I hope this helps.

Part IV: setting up XOOPS

This process is mainly described by the XOOPS documentation and is further simplified by the XOOPS installation wizard, so I won't go into too much detail here. Please consult those places for additional information.

1. Start with a fresh install. Download XOOPS and unpack it. Move the xoops2/html directory to somewhere in your web server's tree. For example if your web server has its root directory in /var/www/html then you can either replace the entire contents of /var/www/html with the contents of xoops2/html or you can move xoop2/html to be a subdirectory of /var/www/html. If you do the latter:

mv xoops2/html /var/www/html/xoops

Then your XOOPS installation will be available via:

http://yourhost.yourdomain.dom/xoops/

If you did the former:

mkdir /var/www/html/bak
mv /var/www/html/* /var/www/html/bak
mv xoops2/html/* /var/www/html

Then your XOOPS installation would be available via:

http://yourhost.yourdomain.dom/

Either way (it doesn't matter to me), just point your browser there. If you get a blank screen, then make sure you're starting with a fresh install. If it still doesn't work, check your web server error logs and do a search on this site to see if someone else has figured out what your problem is already. After doing a search and trying to fix the problem on your own, if you're still stuck, make a new post to the appropriate forum and someone will most likely be able to help you. When you do this, please include all relevent information (which web server, specific error messages, log output, anything you can think of that might shed light on your problem).

2. Assuming you were presented with the installation wizard, follow the instructions until you get to the page entitled:

General configuration

Fill in all of the information here according to what you created in parts I & II:

Database select MySQL
Database Hostname whatever your MySQL hostname is
Database Username xoops
Database Password whatever password you entered in part II, step 3
Database Name xoops

If you do not know what your DB hostname is then ask your system administrator, or look at the main screen when you first log into phpMyAdmin. You'll see a line that says something like:

MySQL X.XX.XX running on HOSTNAME as USER@HOSTNAME

You will most likely be able to copy and paste HOSTNAME from this line directly into the Database Hostname field of the XOOPS installation. If this doesn't work, ask your system administrator.

3. Finish the installation. If all went well, you should be up and running. If you still have a problem connecting to your database, double-check your work in parts I - III. If this fails, contact your system administrator.
