Hi,

I am a first time user of SilverStripe, well, I havent actually managed to get it installed yet, so havent even used it...

I have no problem on my server with other CMS software running PHP5+ and MySql, so I am not sure how to solve this SilverStripe install error.

After downloading then uploading all the files (twice) to my server and setting up the install, it simply gets stuck on building the database schema. There is no errors that are shown (with display errors on in php.ini), the browser stops processing, I have my php memory_limit set to 32M then 64M and everything had the green light during the setup.

Looking at my server log, this is what it contains:

[Fri May 02 20:07:09 2008] [error] [client 222.154.8.18] PHP Warning: is_dir() [<a href='function.is-dir'>function.is-dir</a>]: open_basedir restriction in effect.

Please advise on the method of fixing this, I feel unfortunate that my first experience with SilverStripe is a negative one, but being a Kiwi, I am willing to put in some time to get the thing running... logged 3-4 hours so far searching and trying to fix myself...

Thanks in advance,

Andy

Thanks for the quick reply. The domain has PHP Safe mode turned off.

Now getting the following error:

Warning: require_once(Auth/OpenID.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/vhosts/andy.net.nz/httpdocs/auth_openid/code/Auth/OpenID/Consumer.php on line 163

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'Auth/OpenID.php' (include_path='.:') in /var/www/vhosts/andy.net.nz/httpdocs/auth_openid/code/Auth/OpenID/Consumer.php on line 163

Which was solved by deleting the auth_openid folder...

Then came up with more errors when tying to change themes, so I reinstalled 2.2.3, but get this error...

Notice: Undefined variable: mem in /var/www/vhosts/andy.net.nz/httpdocs/install.php on line 639

I've never had so much trouble...Although SS looks really promising, it installs like a warm turd on a cold day...

Thanks Will.

I have the daily SS build running ok now, 2.2.3RC3 (2/05/08) or whatever its up to.. Ive just checked-out the files from SVN, and have to get around to updating the ecommerce module...

I was looking through the documentation, but whats the quickest and easiest way to add access to the modules via the backend. I am use to joomla, wordpress, and pretty much everyother CMS where you simply have a modules section or manager for activating/deactivating modules. Basically installing all the standard modules, and need to get them all up and running with access via admin panel.

Cheers,

Andy
