Hey all. I got the message saying that the installation was completed, but at the top I get this error message:
Warning: fopen("install.lock", "wb") - Permission denied in /peakweb/virtual-cycles/virtual-cycles.com/htdocs/coppermine/install.php on line 490
I click to continue and everything seems ok, but when I login using the admin info for my phpbb 2.06 forum, I get taken to my phpbb forum page. If I try to return to coppermine, I have to login again, and I keep going in circles.
browse youre coppermine-directory and look for a file called install.lock.
if there isn't any file with that name, try to check the permissions for "/peakweb/virtual-cycles/virtual-cycles.com/htdocs/coppermine/".
install.php should be able to write into that directory
i hope i could help..
Thanks for the help. There was no install.lock file so I changed the permissions on the coppermine directory like you suggested...then I reinstalled coppermine and this time there were no error messages :)
It seems that the login problem is a separate issue, though. I still can't login to coppermine with the admin account of my forum. I click login and it takes me to the login page for my phpbb forum, I login, and then I am kept at the forum. If I go back to coppermine, I have to login again.
At least there were no errors...I'm sure there is a simple answer to the other problem...thanks again!
oops, forget it...it works now. We use a beta server to test things and as soon as I sync'd the servers the login started to work. Thanks again for the help!
