Error / kernel (1)

Sunday 30 March 2003 11:10:04 am

Hi, I just installed ezpublish and when I get to the main page, I get this message:

Error / kernel (1)


ezdb (1)
PostgreSQL extension was not found, the DB handler will not be initialized.

kernel (50)
No database connection could be made, the system might not behave properly.

Access denied
You don't have permission to access this area.

I went to the site.ini file and changed DatabaseImplementation=ezpostgresql
to ezmysql and it seemed to take care of the errors, but then I got just a white page for the index.

Does anyone know what is happening?

Thanks a lot

Ok this MAY help you.

First off, you need to make sure that

CheckValidity=false

on your site.ini file is set to

CheckValidity=true

Then, make sure you Go through the setup of the site and chose ezMySql for database, isntead of PostgreSQL. Additionally, Make sure that you delete all the files under /settings/override folder before you run the above. Make sure you delete site.ini.php file if both site.ini and site.ini.php exist.

Now once you have deleted all the files I specified and changed the CheckValidity to reflect true, go through setup on the website by accessing the normal site URL (http://yourDomain.com/ezpublish/index.php). Go through the setup.

IF this DOES NOT correct the problem try these steps:
DELETE all the files under /settings/OVERRIDE directory. Delete the site.ini.php file under /settings/ directory and then edit the site.ini file and at about the top of the page there should be the database configuration. Default that they usually come with are DATABASE name nextgen, username: nextgen; password: nextgen. Replace those with your own.

Once you've done that, rename site.ini to site.ini.php for more security. That should help you out.
