Power CMS Install wizard

Thread began 6/20/2013 9:02 pm by elewis93815 | Last modified 6/21/2013 6:46 am by elewis93815 | 1240 views | 4 replies |

Power CMS Install wizard

The install wizard will not allow me to click the "Get Started" button to proceed to complete the installation. There is where it stalls at: "Welcome to the PowerCMS Installation Wizard. This wizard allows you to quickly configure PowerCMS to work on your live server. Once completed, your content management system will be installed and ready for you to use with your website."

I'd like to know how to proceed to finish the installation.

Thanks

Erick

most likely the server has an issue with saving session data.

use the attached sessionTest.php file to make sure the server can save sessions, if the test fails, you will need to contact the host to jhave them correct the problem, most likely a bad session.save_path setting in the php.ini

This is what I see after uploading the test file:
Warning: session_start(): open(/var/php_sessions/sess_fd1379711f2d88e82158e5035cdcb85d, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in /hermes/bosweb/web237/b2373/ipg.careonehousingcom/sessionTest.php on line 5 Warning: session_start(): Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /hermes/bosweb/web237/b2373/ipg.careonehousingcom/sessionTest.php:5) in /hermes/bosweb/web237/b2373/ipg.careonehousingcom/sessionTest.php on line 5 To Test you servers session management:
1) Click here to Set Session variables

The link above uses a URL variable to trigger setting a session variable

2) Click here to test session variables

This link does not contain the URL variable, so it will not set the session variable again, but the session variables value should not be changed.

Result:
Session Test = NULL
(When the page is first loaded, the session variable test will = NULL, when you click the first link, the session variable test will be set to test. Clicking the second link will only reload the page, the session variable test should still equal test, if it equals NULL, your server has a problem with session management.

Session ID = fd1379711f2d88e82158e5035cdcb85d
(NOTE: if sessions are working correctly, the session ID should not change.)

Session.save_path = /var/php_sessions

Warning: Unknown: open(/var/php_sessions/sess_fd1379711f2d88e82158e5035cdcb85d, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in Unknown on line 0 Warning: Unknown: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/var/php_sessions) in Unknown on line 0

yes, that error:

Warning: session_start(): open(/var/php_sessions/sess_fd1379711f2d88e82158e5035cdcb85d, O_RDWR) failed:


means the session.save_path does not exist. the error is saying that it cannot open the save path folder to save the session.

contact the host to have them correct the problem.

Problem resolved, it was a directory issue on the host's server - Thank you !
