Title: install.php resets to empy feilds
Post by: jaggster on November 25, 2004, 02:02:05 AM
I have done everything up to the part where I log into the galleries install.php page.  I input all the information that it requests.  I hit the button to submit and all it does is refresh the install.php page with the default values again.

I have verified all the MySQL information with my system admin to make sure the values are acurate.  Can someone please give me the key to getting past this install step?

I've experimented with a lot of troubleshooting ideas but so far nothing has worked.  It's as if when I press the button to submit the information, it is a reseting everything back to the default values.

Am I the only person that has experianced this problem?

That's because Coppermine doesn't support the mysqli extensions, it only supports the mysql ones.  A more robust database support is planned for future releases of Coppermine.

is there a way to make coppermine choose mysql instead of mysqli? i'm having both extensions loaded because mysqli is needed for another software, but then cpg won't work.

updated: cpg works when i turned on register_long_arrays. thanks
