My appologies for writing in English, but my German writing is terrible although I don't have any problems understanding it. 

I tried installing pragmaMX from scratch on a Windows 2000 machine (yes, I prefer Linux, but had no choice). Latest file dates of pragmaMX are of 3rd of April.

I went through the first 7 steps fine. Then in Step 2 I have to enter the database details, and continue fine until pragmaMX actually tries to connect to MySQL and fails miserably.
(Error: Es konnte keine Verbindung zur Datenbank 'pragmamx' hergestellt werden.
MySql meldet: (1044) - Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'pragmamx')

From what I understand there is an error in install\modules\New_Install\config.php (see below), since the parameters in this file are used to connect to the database, instead of the ones entered.

Code Auswählen Erweitern


$mxConf['dbhost']      = "localhost";
$mxConf['dbname']      = "pragmamx";
$mxConf['dbuname']     = "";
$mxConf['dbpass']      = "";
$mxConf['prefix']      = "mx";
$mxConf['user_prefix'] = "mx";


Or maybe it's language related, I haven't tested it in German.

Cheers,

Hello !

Latest file dates of pragmaMX are of 3rd of April.

hmm .... you took the files from sourceforge from the Files -Section
or from the cvs-repository. In the second case, please take ONLY the stable-Version.

install\modules\New_Install\config.php

After the installation-process there should be also a config.php in the portal-root
Pls look if there is one.

$mxConf['dbhost']      = "localhost";
$mxConf['dbname']      = "pragmamx";
$mxConf['dbuname']     = "";
$mxConf['dbpass']      = "";
$mxConf['prefix']      = "mx";
$mxConf['user_prefix'] = "mx";

This shows, that there are no login informations in the config-file.
One reason could by, that the Apache-Serve has no permissions to write on the config-file

Actually I followed the download link from the site here and yes, it leads me to the sourceforge page showing only the 0.1.3 release. No other choices. http://www.pragmamx.org/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=419

Nope, nothing there and there are no permissions restricting writing the config.php (Currently testing with IIS, that could be the problem)  [Edited] It was IIS screwing with the permissions.. Fixed it now, forced everything world writable.

This shows, that there are no login informations in the config-file.

During the pre-installation phase there is a test:
/install/modules/New_Install/config.php - Datei vorhanden
/install/modules/New_Install/config.php - Schreibrechte OK

Sounds good to me...  But actually doesn't seem to do a real test!!

I will also test this next week on my linux box at home.

Cheers,

Howdi !

That ist the right version.

/install/modules/New_Install/config.php - Datei vorhanden
/install/modules/New_Install/config.php - Schreibrechte OK

Yes, looks good. But still no data in the file.
Looks like the form-data cannot insert in the file.
did you ever had problems with your internet browser to submit formular-data ?

Hi!

/install/modules/New_Install/config.php - Datei vorhanden
/install/modules/New_Install/config.php - Schreibrechte OK

Yes, looks good. But still no data in the file.

That would suggest that I won't be able to post here, when using the same browser.
From my perspective IIS is not handling the properties correctly. This proves again why CMSes run best on Apache.

Hi,

I haven't reported back on this. I was going to test pragmaMx on linux and after unpacking and going through the default installation process I can report that everything works fine. The only problem I have is that eventhough I specify during the installation to set everything in English (backend, date and such) it reverts to English. Is there any way of changing that in a future release? Same applies to the Admin panel, menu items and such. I manually changed everything to English (I'm not fussed about translating), but if pragmaMx is going to be used worldwide this might be an issue for people who don't understand German.

In my humble opinion, pragmaMx has great potential for use outside the German speaking community! 

Cheers,
Roy
