Topic: Impossible to create database - Blank page

Hi.

I've got trouble with the installation of the version 1.2.6.

I'm using IIS 6 Windows .NET, PHP 5.0.4 and MySQL 4.1.13.

MySQL/MySQLi extensions are OK, also PHP.

When I fill the install form and submit it, I've got a blank page even if I uncomment the DEBUG line in to the common.php file. (Same thing with index.php but it's certainly normal because DB is not created).

What's this hell ?

Any help is welcome.

Re: Impossible to create database - Blank page

index.php should never show a blank page, what do you see if you view source?

The source gives me : <html><body></body></html>

Strange !

Is this script a joke ? index.php has no source...

Look at this : install.php

[...]

switch ($db_type)
{
     [...]

     case 'mysqli':

     ?> HERE #1<br><br> <?
       
     require PUN_ROOT.'include/dblayer/mysqli.php';
           
     ?> HERE #2<br><br> <?
           
     break;

[...]

I've got only :

HERE #1

?!

Perhaps the PUN_ROOT ? Here can I see its value ?
Thanks.

Ok, in the install.php file, modify the line :

define('PUN_ROOT', './');

by this one :

define('PUN_ROOT', '');

IIS 6.0 issue ? I don't know.

Re: Impossible to create database - Blank page

For IIS 6.0, all required file path seem to be incorrect :\
