Issues installing

Hi, new to XOOPS/PHP. I installed Xoops 2.4.4 on my godaddy.com domain via FTP. When I try to install it the very first page is "language selection." The field is blank, as in no languages to choose from. I can't proceed past that point. I ran the file check and nothing was missing. Any ideas?

PHP, MySQL and browser version?
Are cookies enabled in your browser?
Are you sure to have a directory /install/language/english/ ?

Put this tstdirlist.php in your /install/ directory.
<?php
function getDirList($dirname)
{
    
$dirlist = array();
    if (
$handle opendir($dirname)) {
        while (
$file readdir($handle)) {
            if (
$file{0} != '.' && is_dir($dirname $file)) {
                
$dirlist[] = $file;
            }
        }
        
closedir($handle);
        
asort($dirlist);
        
reset($dirlist);
    }
    return 
$dirlist;
}
print_r(getDirList("./language/"));
?>

It should return:
Quote:
Array ( [0] => english )

Humm, it is a windows hosting.
Or there is some security measure so you can not get the file list of a directory.
Or it does not understand the ./language/ starting location.
You should ask your hoster about these.

Else try with "language/"
If that works, you could change it in /install/page_langselect.php

Re: Issues installing

I think I'm going to switch from godaddy hosting. Reading around the forum, it doesn't seem that they're too easy to work with. I'm thinking of switching to hostmonster.com. Any thoughts as to how well they work?

And for now, the link I posted earlier won't show anything. I put the old stuff up. www.fanflix.net
