Hi all!
Can you help me, with my problem.

Let’s start:
1) I downloaded ezpublish-3[1].6.5.zip
2) Unzip with winrar
3) Upload to my server in htdocs folder
4) Run setup wizard.
Problem: Your system is not optimal, if you wish you can click the Finetune button. This will present hints on how to fix these issues.
5) Click Finetune button:
Problem - Missing database handlers
Register Globals is enabled

I can’t edit php.ini on the server, because it’s virtual hosting.
And i can’t write php_value register_globals 0 into .htaccess, because "Invalid command 'php_value', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration"

Ok, click Next >

6) Outgoing E-mail: Sendmail/MTA - it`s ok for me.
click Next >
7) Database initialization: Create new Database (mysql)
click Next >
8) Language support - Choose Russian as main.
click Next >
9) Site type - Choose Shop
click Next >
10) Site functionality - Choose:
- Contact us
- Contacts
- Files
- Forum
- Image gallery
- Links
- News
- Polls

click Next >

10) Site access configuration - URL
click Next >
11) Site details: OK
click Next >
12) Site administrator - OK
click Next >
13) Site security - "Your site is not running in a virtual host mode, this is insecure. It is recommended to run eZ publish in virtual host mode. If you do not have the possibility to use virtual host mode, you should follow the
instructions below about how to install an .htaccess file. The .htaccess file tells the web server to restrict the access to certain files. "

Ok, I copy htaccess_root to htaccess, but i close "php_value allow_call_time_pass_reference 0", because this string calling 500 error.

click Next >

14) Site registration - Ok, send registration

15) Creating sites - The setup wizard was not able to complete the creation of your selected sites.

The following errors were detected:

EZSW-004
Failed inserting data to mysql
Table 'ezapprove_items' already exists
EZSW-040
Failed to initialize site package shop
If you think you have fixed the errors you can try and click the "Retry" button

MySQL was empty!
ok, push Retry button
- Nothing.

16) I start installation again with English_GB language - and... all OK, but all url like http://diamas.ru/index.php/shop/links, and when i click - i see:
Module not found
The requested module index.php could not be found.

Possible reasons for this are:

The module name was misspelled, try changing the URL.
The module does not exist on this site.
This site uses siteaccess matching in the URL and you didn't supply one, try inserting a siteaccess name before the module in the URL .

But, if i write url like http://diamas.ru/index.php?/shop/links - All OK.

Q: How i can edit .htaccess file, for good work?

My site here http://www.diamas.ru, but link must be like http://www.diamas.ru/index.php.... This is my second problem )))

HELP! :-)

Your server likely uses PHP in CGI mode where index,php/something doesn't work, only index.php?/something.

I think that installing PHP as Apache module will fix the problem right away.

Perhaps some mod_rewrite trickery would help as well (something like replacing index.php with index.php? in the default mod_rewrite config MIGHT work) but I'm really not into mod_rewrite so this is just a wild guess.

As for diamas.ru not working, index.php will have to be added as DirectoryIndex in Apache for that.

For both things, talk to your sysadmin.

May be i can change all link and action (form) on index.php?/something???

Because, the system is very nice, but not working =)))

> I think that installing PHP as Apache module

I can`t reinstall PHP on common web-server )))

>something like replacing

Now my .htaccess file as default:

....

...

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule !\.(gif|jpe?g|png|css|js|html)|var(.+)storage.pdf(.+)\.pdf$ index.php

I try to change index.php on index.php?, but it`s doesn`t work ((((((

With DirectoryIndex problem (403) it`s ok....

O-la-la... =(

Putting the following code in a .htaccess file should make everything work in cgi-mode:

RewriteEngine on  
RewriteRule !^index\.php.* - [C] 
RewriteRule !^webdav\.php.* - [C]  
RewriteRule !\.(gif|jpe?g|png|css|js|html)|var(.+)storage.pdf(.+)\.pdf?$ - [C] 
RewriteRule (.*) /index.php?/$1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

sp@php.net

Thank`s a lot Sebastian, but it`s doesn`t work (((((

My .htaccess:

# Copy this file to a new file called .htaccess in your eZ publish root
# to make the site more secure in non-virtualhost mode (index.php used in urls).
#

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule !^index\.php.* - [C]
RewriteRule !^webdav\.php.* - [C]
RewriteRule !\.(gif|jpe?g|png|css|js|html)|var(.+)storage.pdf(.+)\.pdf?$ - [C]
RewriteRule (.*) /index.php?/$1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

eZ publish should detec PHP in CGI automatically and add ? to URL. Try remove all files from var/cache and var/(shop)/cache then access your site.

No objections here ;) You can contact me via e-mail ls [at] ez [dot] no
We can discuss your ideas.

eZ publish already has support for Russian language. Check eZ publish translations page

http://ez.no/community/translations

Unfortunately ez.no does not support russian characters, topic in english will be good ;)
