I am searching all over these forums for a way to get around a fatal error that I keep receiving upon installation:

Fatal error: Class MySQLQuery cannot extend from interface Query in /mywebserverpath/www/silverstripe/sapphire/core/model/MySQLDatabase.php on line 452

I've made all of the modifications listed above and nothing helps. Please help me determine what is causing this problem.

But You're not on home.pl

I wrote about problem with their servers.

Actually solved this issue by just installing in the root. Install instructions on SS should probably be more specific

Hey!

I had the same problem while installing SilverStripe on my server at home.pl.

I've contacted my administrator and he made the following changes:

1. Modified .htaccess to:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(.gif)|(.jpg)|(.png)|(.css)|(.js)|(.php)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ sapphire/main.php?url=$1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} index..* [NC]
RewriteRule .* sapphire/main.php?url=/ [L]

2. In file 'sapphire/core/control/Controller.php' modified the function redirect()

from:

function redirect($url) {
if($this->response->getHeader('Location')) {
user_error("Already directed to " . $this->response->getHeader('Location') . "; now trying to direct to $url", E_USER_WARNING);
return;
}

// Attach site-root to relative links, if they have a slash in them
if($url == "" || $url[0] == '?' || (substr($url,0,4) != "http" && $url[0] != "/" && strpos($url,'/') !== false)){
$url = Director::baseURL() . $url;
}

$this->response->redirect($url);
}

to:

// Zmiana typu przekierowania
if(substr($url, 0, 1) == '/') {
$url = 'http://' . $_SERVER[HTTP_HOST] . $url;
}

$this->response->redirect($url);
}

3. Line 91 in file core/ManifestBuilder.php has been commented out

// $baseDir = ereg_replace("/[^/]+/\\.\\.", "", $baseDir);

And it now works fine!

Question to Core Developers: Will I experience any future problems because of the changes?

Howdy,
I have a similar problem as I would like to have my website not have the SS directory in the url structure (ie www.myurl.com/silverstripe/home)

Should I have installed SS in the root rather than a separate directory per the installation instructions?

I am installed on Dreamhost with PHP5
Thanks!

hi snecz,

Sorry you can't install SilverStripe on your particular host.

After doing a bit of research, it turns out that IdeaWebServer doesn't support .htaccess/mod_rewrite in the way that SS is set up to do so, specifically for Apache/Lighthttpd. It's very hard to find documentation on it in fact, because it's developed in-house for the Polish host home.pl, and so it's hard to determine exactly why there's a problem here. I've tried searching "ideawebserver .htaccess" on Google. I wish I could read the result websites, but they're all in Polish!

SilverStripe currently only supports Apache and lighthttpd for HTTP servers. Here are the server requirements for SilverStripe on our wiki:

http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=server-requirements

As you can see, there's a summary on the HTTP server requirements: "We currently support Apache and lighttpd. You could probably get it going on IIS, but we currently donâ€™t provide support for this.".

The trouble with your particular host is the HTTP server it's running, that being IdeaWebServer. I believe the problem is the way SilverStripe re-writes the URLs, as there are specific rules to determine how the server should be displaying the URLs, for example, there's no real way to go to say, http://mysite.com/home.html in SilverStripe - which is probably why other CMS' work on this particular server.

I would suggest finding a host that uses Apache as the HTTP server to use SilverStripe, because it's very difficult to know how to debug one that doesn't have much widely known documentation available on the internet.

Cheers,
Sean

Thanks for your advices.
I changed .htaccess file (in ss catalogue) and added line as you sugested RewriteBase /silverstripe.
But still nothing...
What can I do more?

Yes, that's probably the main problem now that we know the webserver is not apache2, though you would still need the line in .htaccess I think... (if the server was apache2)

Keep that in mind if you change host (the problem does seem to be unresolved in the other thread)

Seems that host is running an obscure HTTP server..
IdeaWebServer ??

You are not the first one to report this , please have a look @ this thread :

This looks like a mod_rewrite issue.

Try adding this below the 'RewriteEngine On' line in your .htaccess file:
RewriteBase /xyz

where 'xyz' is the base directory of the installation i.e. 'silverstripe'
RewriteBase /silverstripe

NOTE: I have not tested this, since I do not need this for my servers, but I believe this should be correct.

I've tried the above steps and still have the same issue too. After installing with no errors, I get the install.php running again and again.

I first installed v2.2.1 and got the continuing install.php after a full install, so I went and got v2.2.2 rc3 and tried it. The same thing.

Hope to find a fix. The front page said SilverStripe was easy to install. I'm beginning to wonder if this is true!.

after you install it try going to yoursite.com/home/?flush=1. It appears there might be a caching issue installation, most noticeably this occurs in safari. Just try the above step then try emptying your browser cache and then viewing that page

I have the same problem and was hoping to find and answer.

Please help.

Install went fine, no errors - but when trying to start SS I get sent back to the install screen.

Thanks.

Hello, I have just discovered SilverStripe. I've downloaded the files on my server, created the database, run install.php file, put proper data of the database and database was set up properly but I can't go further. When I run the catalogue with SilverStripe I still go to install.php. I couldn't find any information about it in documentation. How can I run my just installed SilverStripe CMS?
