I have run thoguh the installationo instructins, and also created the DB. Im new to PHP, etc so needsome help please. Is it because the web server is not running? any help please

You may be experiencing the same problem I had with the windows install.

Creating the opencats database doesent work, it supposed to populate the opencats DB but it just creates an empty one. Do you have tables in the opencats DB?

I suspect that this version of the install package is defective.

Yes, this seems to be the issue, it creates it, but nothing in it but should it not find a homepage at least?

Hi guys,

Sorry I've not gotten to you earlier. Can you shed some more light on what version of opencats you're running? It does run through tests before release so even the production snapshot from github installs and tests fine. I believe there were some issues if you chose 'install test data' during the initial install? But if you remove the file called 'install_block from your root directory and rerun the installer, then you should be able to install an empty database.

Please update me with your progress!

Hi Russ,

Thanks for your response. I have gone back, and tested the XAMPP install, and now am able to get to the CATS installer page, but get the following message:

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function ereg_replace() in C:\xampp\htdocs\ajax.php:86 Stack trace: #0 {main} thrown in C:\xampp\htdocs\ajax.php on line 86

I have followed the instructions on https://github.com/opencats/OpenCATS/wi ... s-Tutorial

i believe the version is 9.1a

[RussH]

Okay! If you're installing 0.9.1a then that's unsupported - please install 0.9.3-1 from here https://github.com/opencats/OpenCATS/releases/

Also - for now, PHP v7 is unsupported, please ensure your version of XAMPP is running 5.x.x

Thanks for your help - ill give it another go

hi RussH, this worked - thanks for your help !

errm, from memory default is admin and opencats. If not, i'll go check the MySQL table in the install package.
