>What does view source show you?

 

Blank.

 

Pop-up window has address of: domain/xerte_ot/edit.php?template_id=6

 

>Install fiddler and track what PHP runs
Already have it. I'll run it.

I actually found a spot in the ISP control panel to add MIME.

Tried:

text/xml
and 
text/plain
for the 4 types.

Still get a blank window on Create.

.rlo

.rlt

 

I think

 

As text/xml

What MIME types need to be set on server for XOT?

No

 

That's the need to set mimetypes on the server.

grr.

Are there cascading authentication issues?

Xerte Online Toolkit > Create > Name Project >Create Project button

 

Pop-up window is blank.

And then rename index.php to be index.notphpanymore and rename
switch.txt to index.php

Oh no you've got in installed version, and the code is sitting there all
ready and willing to be used, its just you've not got LDAP on the
server.

 

Hence the white screen.

 

The simplest answer is to  look at switch.txt in the root, search
through it for the typed in username / passwords (its not a big file,
search with the wheely mouse) and change those.

It must ahve been reusing that temp txt file.

Clean install, bingo.

Unfortunately, entering signin info on home page takes me to blank page,
not 
even any underlying code.

Getting closer though. :-)

It builds a temp database.txt in setup, before copying it into root when
it is done.

 

So have a look in the setup folder.

 

But I'd say start again

Deleted database.php and then went through the install again from page 1
watching for it's point of creation.

When created, I dl'ed and got this:

* Database table prefix
*/
$xerte_toolkits_site->database_table_prefix ="test";
?>

I had changed the prefix value, so I'm not sure where it is re-pulling
it from.

Rip it all off the server and start clean?

So I missed supplying something on page 2?

Can I restart the setup procedure without beggaring something up?

Page 2 uses your admin details to create the database, and page 2
doesn't make an account, it relies on one already being there.

 

Page 3 / 4 uses the details supplied on page 2

Wouldn't the same connection string be used that created the tables on
page2?

After some thrashing aout I managed to get past page2.php of the install
and create the tables on my hosting ISP.

On page3.php I left most everything default, but on submission I get a
slew of:
Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost'
errors.

Pretty sure I created tables on my ISP, as I do not have mySQL installed
locally. ;-)
