[Xerte] MySQL errors when installing Xerte

Fri Jul 2 16:18:42 BST 2010

I spent ages looking at why it might be, but I couldn't work out why.

However it now works here, so maybe it's a server / LDAP thing.

Try removing the enctype attribute from website_code/login_top

Ah, Is there anyway round this as if the users follow the password
policy here (which I'm sure absolutely everyone does) then there should
be special symbols in their passwords

Pound sign in one dollar sign in the other. I take it it doesn't play
well with special symbols?

Thanks Patrick,

Now I can log in, some users can't. I am able to log in with a 3 of my
users from AD, but my colleagues and myself can't log in. I can't see
any reason for this all the users are in different ous so that's not a
common factor.

Sorry to be the class dunce but this has got me puzzled.

Thanks,
Alex

Ldap host - your host
Ldap port - your host's port
Ldap bind_pwd - a password for your ldap account to bind with if you
take that approach Basedn - String to search with Bind_dn - account for
the password and other info Ldap preference and ldap filter are usually
preset as good values for education

PHP settings - other than the ones recommender in the installer
(max_post and max_file, and sometimes the memory limit), there isn't
much you'd need to change.

HI again,

I've figured out the install issue, I wasn't being recursive with the
chmod so only the directories had the right permissions not the files
inside. I've got it installed fine now. But I'm unsure as to exactly
what I need to put in the ldap boxes and if I need to have tinkered with
any php settings to get it to work?

Thanks,

Alex

Hello,

Run an install through again (remember to delete the database).

When you get to page3.php, check on setup/database.txt / .php, and do
the same before page 4.

Any changes?

Pat

Hiya Pat,

I can't see anything untoward and I've tried tweting the database.php

used.

Thanks
Alex

There is indeed. The thing that confuses me is that it seems to be
trying to use www-data as the user?

Hi Patrick,

I did set the permissions before I started the installation and I've
just doubled checked and they match what it says in the installation
guide: 0777 for the root, setup, error logs, user files and import
folders.

Thanks,

Alex

Sounds like either the root folder or the setup folder aren't writable
too.

Check that, then try again.

Hi All,

I'm currently trying to install the Xerte online toolkit on a Ubuntu
Server VM when I click the last next on the install wizard I get a page
full of MySQL errors: .has failed due to Access denied for user
'www-data'@'localhost' (using password: NO)I'm not quite sure where it's
getting these details from as I did set a MySQL password during install
and I entered it in the Xerte wizard. I'm sure I'm doing something
fairly daft.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
