Hello,

This is my first post, but i have tested Typolight quite for a while now. I think it is the best Open Source CMS on the market.

At this moment I am working on a project, but I am having some problems installing the cms on the webserver.
During the installation procedure, I come to step install script password, the proces will not continue.

You can see it here: http://data.successevents.nl/typolight/install.php

Does any one have an idea what could be the problem?

Kind regards

Kees

Nothing has happened, check the documentation

When I check the page, I see the normal install step where you need to type the default typolight password (which is "typolight", you'll have to change that the next step).

Hi Davidm,

Thanks for your quick reaction.

But when I try to change the password by typing it in two times and click on the button, nothing happens. While the documentation says I have to continue to the create an encryption key form. You can try it yourself!

Didn't want to skew your install, but I did try and it works alright, I get asked to change the password...

Here it is :



Now try it ASAP, it's not secure to leave it that way !
If you don't reply in a few minutes I'll set the password and send it to you.

Edit : it would seem that there is a timeout to reset the password, I didn't need to reset it (kudos for TL's security :thumbup: )

Check your browser settings for cookies, session security, there must be something here...

Hi Kees,

Try the System check tool, maybe you need to use the Safe mode hack

Hi Davidm,

This is just my problem. When I try to change the password, typolight won't remember it. And the install doesn't continue.

In the mean while I think i have found the problem. But I do not know the solution yet.

I have placed the smhcheck.php on the server (http://data.successevents.nl/smhcheck.php)in order to check the save mode hack.

This gives me the following caution: FTP path seems not to be correct; temporary file not found.

I checked the path, and it seems to be right.

Maybe you have a solution.

Good catch Cyril :)

Dubbie83, if the system check tool tells you the path is not set right then double check it : there must be something here, maybe you did not provide the full path, or maybe the ftp user doesn't have enough privileges ?

The path for the SMH is related to the relative root as seen by your ftp account.

For example on my server the system path (seen in ssh) may be /var/webdata/www, but when connected by ftp the path may appear as /www which would be the one to enter in the SMH settings as /www/ or www/

I found it, Thanks you all guys. :thumbup: :thumbup:

It was the relative path. I had this typed in web/ like the example. But it had to be /web/
