when I setup the configuration for my PHPwebsite, I just got blank page at "www.mysite.com/phpws/setup/setup.php"
I use yahoo webhosting. PHPmyadmin for mySQL database
i dont understand the permision status from tutorial it says like this
If you have root access to the webserver run:
cd ./setup/
./secure_phpws.sh setup
You may need to edit the script if apache does not run as apache:apache.
This can be changed at the top of the script.
Else run:
cd ./setup/
./NONROOT_secure_phpws.sh setup
I just did CHMOD to 777 for 'images','files','conf' folders using ftp.
I followed tutorials from:
http://www.nexcess.net/hosting/support/t...
I just stuck at step number 4.
please help me!
How to configure PHPwebsite setup after register mySQL database server?
Your actual error was truncated so this answer may not be correct for your problem.
Basically PHP/MsSQL runs out of the box on Yahoo hosted sites. Few things to check if it does not appear to be working:
1)Your PHP pages should have the extension of .php (Doh).
2)In Yahoo hosting management screens insure the directories you have placed your pages are not password protected. You check this with the File Manager.
3) Insure your pages are not using php extensions that are not loaded. You can view PHPinfo in the PHPmyAdmin section.
4) You are using the proper connection strings for mySQL at the Yahoo site. These are typically different than the ones you use on your development machine.
I suggest you work your way into this by first creating a tiny php page that does not access mySQL. Place it in your root folder. Then try to access it.
After you get that page working, then try do to a simple mySQL query with the page until you have debugged your connection.
Then go hog wild with your new site and have fun.
