Topic: New Install on 1.3RC

I am new to punBB and attempting to install. I have:

1.) unzipped the file into a folder on local drive.
2.) Copied the UPLOADS folder (and subs) onto my server (accept for the EXTRAS folder).
3.) Attempted to install with "mysite/community/install.php".

But I get the following response:

An error was encountered
---------------------------------------
The error occurred on line 66 in /home/mysite/public_html/community/include/dblayer/mysql.php


The following is from mysql.php:

(LINE 64)    // Setup the client-server character set (UTF-8)
(LINE65)        if (!defined('FORUM_NO_SET_NAMES'))
(LINE 66)    mysql_query('SET NAMES \'utf8\'', $this->link_id) or error(__FILE__, __LINE__);

Any ideas anyone?

Re: New Install on 1.3RC

I am using 4.0.27-standard. The error response above is all that I received..I just told me an error occured and does not give explanation. That is what is perplexing to me.

Re: New Install on 1.3RC

Try to change your "MySQL connection collation" into "UTF8_bin". wink
