Install Errors

[KWH]

I am probably jumping in way over my head, but I like what Coppermine has to offer for my site.  I tried installing tqice and here is what i got each time:

Your installation of PHP does not seem to include the 'GD' graphic library extension and you have not indicated that you want to use ImageMagick. Coppermine has been configured to use GD2 because the automatic GD detection sometimes fail. If GD is installed on your system, the script should work else you will need to install ImageMagick.

The installer is locked
• • • ERROR • • • 
The installer has already been run successfuly once and is now locked.

If you want to run the installer again, you first need to delete the '' file that was created in the directory where you put Coppermine. You can do this with any FTP program.

Before you continue with Coppermine installation, there are some problems that need to be fixed.

Once you are done, hit the "Try again" button.






Welcome to Coppermine installation
• • • ERROR • • • 
The following errors were encountered and need to be corrected first:


Your admin account 
This section requires information to create your administration account. Use only alphanumeric characters. Enter the data carefully ! 
Username   
Password   
Email address   
Your MySQL configuration 
This section requires information on how to access your MySQL database. If you don't know how to fill them, check with your webhost support. 
MySQL Host
(localhost is usually OK)   
MySQL Database Name   
MySQL Username   
MySQL Password   
MySQL table prefix
(default value is OK; do not use dots!)   
ImageMagick 
Coppermine can use the ImageMagick 'convert' program to create thumbnails. Quality of images produced by ImageMagick is superior to GD1 but equivalent to GD2.

If ImageMagick is installed on your system and you want to use it, you need to input the full path to the 'convert' program below. On Windows the path should look like 'c:/ImageMagick/' (use / not \ in the path) and should not contain any space, on Unix is it something like '/usr/bin/X11/'. 
ImageMagick path   





 
Installation completed
Coppermine is now properly configured and ready to roll.

Login using the information you provided for your admin account. Do not hit back, do not re-submit the installer form!

Do you actually have PHP and the other minimum requirements needed to run Coppermine? Post a link to your gallery page.

I am using MySQL 4.1.14 on my localhost with PHP Version 5.0.5 and phpMyAdmin 2.6.4-pl3.  I don't have ImageMagick and am assuming that GD is bundled with my PHP. 

When I run the intsall program, this is what I get: http://haesslyphoto.com/cpg1410/install.php     
When I go to the index page after install, this is what I get:  http://haesslyphoto.com/cpg1410/index.php

Thanks.

Two possible reasons:

• the files got corrupted (make sure that you haven't edited them with a WYSIWYG editor)
• PHP-files are not being parsed properly. Create a phpinfo or simple "hello world" PHP file and check if it works as expected.

Self-hosting is not recommended at all btw.

[KWH]

I upload the files for intsall directly from the ZIP file I got from SourceForge using SmartFTP.  I also use SMartFTP to change the file permissions as needed.  When I created and uploaded the phpinfo file, it opens to a blank screen http://haesslyphoto.com/phpinfo.php.  I am not self-hosting as I may have indicated before, I am using a VPS on IPower.  It is an Apache server.  I have called them a few times to get some help with finding the PHP info or making the files work right, but they were as much help as my cat, who is currently pushing used wrapping paper about the house.  The suggested using Putty to SSL into the site, but that is beyond my scope, and apparently theirs too as they wouldn't help after getting me logged in.

Thank you all for your help.

As your server seems not to be configured to parse PHP files (the phpinfo file doesn't do anything) there's little we could possible do to help you. Only your webhost could possibly solve this. If you actually have a contract for a PHP-powered webspace, make them fulfill their contract or look for another webhost.
Can't help you with configuring your webserver in the first place.

[KWH]

I have checked with my host and went through the PHP configuration.  There was a selection not made that affected what was going on.  I am now installed and working on getting set-up.  Thanks
