I get this message again! Can anyone tell me what to do please ?

<b>
kernel (50)

* No database connection could be made, the system might not behave properly.
</b>
I have searched the forum without finding the solution to this problem. I hear some talks about some folders and files below the settings/override folder, but I dont have any files there. In the siteaccess folder I got just one subfolder called admin.

What am I supposed to do to make this work ?? Please help!

Thanks
RA

Hey Roger, had to chuckle over your last post, I've done the same! So now I am assuming you have all the files uploaded, but it looks like it could be you don't have the permissions set correctly. Did you set the permissions as suggested in the install? If so you might try getting a new copy and starting fresh in case your dowload somehow got corrupted. Just curious, are you unzipping the file then uploading or are you uploading the tar file to your server and then uncompressing? Cheers and keep at it! you will love it once you get over the growing pains! Cheers!

I just unzipped it and uploaded it with ftp. I have also set all the chmod permissions as written in the documentation :)

Thanks guys! It works now :)

(got this line from php docs. Not sure it is working and don't know how to check. Info doesn't show up in phpinfo.php.

Have recursively chmodded directory ezpub and all subdirs as 777.

How can I restart the setup script? I've tried re-uploading all of the source, but setup won't restart.
