[Xerte] Problems installing Xerte

[Patrick Lockley]

Hello,

It is probably because you didn't set your root folder as writable to.

So when the install program tries to write the database file into the
root folder it fails.

So when the system goes looking for the database file it can't find it,
and so it uses the default user.

Subject: [Xerte] Problems installing Xerte

I am installing Xerte on the following server:

Ubunutu 8.10
PHP 5.2.10
MySQL 5

After entering the username and password of the MySQL user I created for
Xerte the installation then fails as it tries to enter information in to
the database. 

An example of the error is:

The sitedetails site ID query insert into
DATABASE_PREFIXsitedetails(site_id) VALUES ( "1") has failed due to
Access denied for user 'www-data'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

This looks to me as if it is trying to write to the MySQL database as
the user www-data (which is the Apache user), and not as the user I
specified in the previous step. 

	Tom
