Hi guys,
I'm attempting to install v7 beta but it fails with the following
error after Step 8 "proceed to next step".

This is the error i recieve after i click the button.

Code
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'libs/smarty/Smarty.class.php' 
(include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in 
*******/***/homepages/test/forums/install/createtable.php on 
line 40 


*** = the rest of the path..

php 5
If i HTACCESS to force php 5 i get these errors?

Code
 Warning: require(libs/smarty/Smarty.class.php)
 [function.require]: failed to open stream: 
No such file or directory in *******/***//homepages/test/forums/install/createtable.php on line 40


Fatal error: require() 
[function.require]: Failed opening required 'libs/smarty/Smarty.class.php' 
(include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php5') in *******/***//homepages/test/forums/install/createtable.php on line 40


Any help frown

I'm also using php 4.2 sick as default.
(I did read the 4.3 in the install doc).
But php 5 fails too frown

All tests passed only this error Setting up Tables.
I did download this install when it came out in the
newsletter a week ago.
Followed the Install manual to the letter.
I created an admin, not the import option.

Help, i so much want this to work. smile

Can you verify that the libs directory was uploaded completely?

Yeh there alll there,
ive put the createtables.php back up too incase of corruption.

I had a look in the file and i made an ammendment to see if
it made a diffrence.

all it was on line 40 was
include ('blar blar');

but the other include files were
include ("blar blar");

so i changed it from ' to "

But the same error appears frown
(put original back after that).

I will upload the full lib directory again.
but i dont think thats the answer.

will let you know

Nope No Joy frown

I deleted the libs directory.
Uploaded it again.

I havent set any file permissions as its not listed
in the install manual.

-------------
I double checked the files and there all there.

Can you make sure that Smarty.class.php exists in your libs/smarty directory? It could be a case issue on your server, so make sure that it's the proper case as well. What's odd about this is the fact that if it was a path issue then it should be erroring out on the line right before the one that is actually causing the error, as shown below. So this leads me to believe it's a problem with just the Smarty.class.php file.

require_once("libs/phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php");
require('libs/smarty/Smarty.class.php');

Whooo Hooo

Its working.

I had to rename 2 files. under PHP4.2
smarty.class.php
to
Smarty.class.php

And

smarty_compiler.class.php
to
Smarty_Compiler.class.php

The Second one errored once the tables were made,
and i think when the catergories were to be made.

I havent tested it in PHP 5 as of yet.
But its looking good.

Do you think i will get away with PHP 4.2 crazy

Will keep you posted of any other errors as i tweak things.

Will be styles my first task.

Thanks a million i can now play lol.... grin

Case sensitivity is a webserver thing, not a PHP thing, so you will be fine with PHP 5.

Just to followup..

I used WISE FTP PRO to up load,
and on the connetion i used in the session settings,
it was ticked "filecase lower" sick

So it was my FTP program that converted those to lower case.

My help someone, or an additional comment in the installation guide?
