    143 Install Error in Step 2

    Windows 2K / IIS / PHP / mySQL

    The database is created but installation fails to create any tables.

    Within mySQL, I created the database and the db user and granted all rights over the database.

    create database atutor;

    use atutor;

    grant all on atutor to 'atutoruser' identified by 'lms';

    set password for 'atutoruser' = old_password('lms');

    Any help will be greatly appreciated! I'm relatively new to PHP/mySQL. Thanks.

    Table Create Permissions

    Make sure your MySQL user has create tables permission. I know you said "all", but this is what happens when create tables is disallowed

    Table permissions fixed but now getting blank page

    Thanks for the suggestion. That was it. The install completed successfully however, now I just get a blank page when I try to log in. Any thoughts? Thanks so much.

    Blank page fixed but still problem.

    Windows 2K / IIS / PHP4.3.10 / mySQL 4.1
    Browser: IE 5.0

    So I reinstalled aTutor and now I actually get a login.php page to load. However, all of the images are broken (not displaying), the stylesheets are not displaying, and when I try to log in with either my user or admin accounts that I created during install, I get a "Cannot find server or DNS error" error page.
    Any help is greatly appreciated! I am very much a newbie!

    Check paths

    Check your include/config.inc.php file and make sure paths have a trailing backslash

    e.g
    c:\\easyphp\www\content\

    Make sure there are no shortcuts in the content path. It needs to be the real path to the directory.

    Make sure register_globals is turned off in php.ini.

    Search the forums if you need help with these. They've been answered before.

    Check your database info

    This is very likely because you have entered your database access information incorrectly.

    Checked paths...

    Hi Greg,

    I really appreciate your help!

    This is strange...
    When I add a trailing "\" to the content folder path:
    c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\aTutor\content\

    I get a blank page. But if I leave the \ off, I get the page displayed but still all the images are broken and when I try to log in or click any link I get the "Cannot find server or DNS error" in IE6.

    I have also checked the other settings you suggested. Everything seems to be in check.

    Checked paths...

    since you're on windows you have to escape the paths.
    the line in your config file should look like:
    define('AT_CONTENT_DIR', 'c:\\Inetpub\\wwwroot\\aTutor\\content\\');

    notice the double slashes and the trailing (ending) slashes.

    Checked paths...

    With the double slashes and ending slashes, I get a "Cannot find server or DNS error"
