<P><FONT size=2>Thanks so far. You're right, I found the setup business and thought I'd done it all, but was getting lots of errors along the way and ended up with:<BR><BR><BR>Warning: mysql_select_db() [function.mysql-select-db]: Access denied for user 'englisl5'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /home2/englisl5/public_html/xerte/config.php on line 34<BR><BR>Warning: mysql_select_db() [function.mysql-select-db]: A link to the server could not be established in /home2/englisl5/public_html/xerte/config.php on line 34<BR><BR>Had problems with the phpinfo page stuff which is referred to earlier because when I opened that up it is blank, so could not find the config path that you talk about in the instructions.<BR>???

The options are<BR><BR>1) You've not started the install and you need to point your web browser at the folder called setup and start the process there.<BR><BR>By the look of the error messages, you need to point your browser at <A href="http://your_url/setup/">http://your_url/setup/</A> then you should see the screens that are in the installation guide.<BR><BR>2) You didn't set the root folder of the install to be writable to so the database.php file wasn't created.<BR><BR>If 2 is the case, you might find a file in the setup folder called database.php, which might be the one you need to use, but check the contents of the file are the ones you entered.<BR><BR>Hope this helps<BR><BR>-----Original Message-----<BR>From: xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk on behalf of Patrick McMahon<BR>Sent: Mon 03/05/2010 12:32<BR>To: xerte@lists.nottingham.ac.uk<BR>Subject: [Xerte] Uploading xerte to a server<BR><BR><BR>Hi,<BR>I really like xerte when I looked at in the sandpit. I have a webspace, where I host a wordpress blog and a moodle course. I am no expert, but I can, generally speaking, upload things like this to my webserver and make use of them. I am trying to do this with xerte but cannot - does it work in the same way as these other things? The instructions are very difficult to follow. I have been trying to follow Pat Lockley's installation guidelines, but cannot really understand them. So far I get this message after installation on the webpage:<BR><BR>Warning: include(database.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home2/englisl5/public_html/xerte/config.php on line 30<BR><BR>Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening 'database.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib64/php:/usr/lib/php') in /home2/englisl5/public_html/xerte/config.php on line 30<BR><BR>Warning: mysql_select_db() [function.mysql-select-db]: Access denied for user 'englisl5'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /home2/englisl5/public_html/xerte/config.php on line 34<BR><BR>Warning: mysql_select_db() [function.mysql-select-db]: A link to the server could not be established in /home2/englisl5/public_html/xerte/config.php on line 3<BR><BR>Any tips?<BR>Thanks for a great tool.<BR><BR>Patrick McMahon<BR>EFL Lecturer<BR>Plymouth Business School<BR>University of Plymouth<BR>01752 585627_______________________________________________<BR>Xerte mailing list<BR>Xerte@lists.nottingham.ac.uk<BR><A href="http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte">http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte</A><BR><BR><BR>_______________________________________________<BR>Xerte mailing list<BR>Xerte@lists.nottingham.ac.uk<BR><A href="http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte">http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte</A><BR></FONT></P></DIV></BODY></HTML>
