can't install 3.7

Monday 17 October 2005 10:34:18 pm

Hi there.

I'm very new to eZ Publish and have only installed it twice. This most recent time I can't even get to the install screen. I continue to get:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class ezsys in /localhost/lib/ezutils/classes/ezsys.php on line 63

Fatal error: eZ publish did not finish it's request

I've looked all over the site and the forums, and this seems to be a common problem, but none of the fixes worked in my situation:

Apache 2.0.54
PHP 4.4.0 (CGI)
MySQL (4.1)
eZ Publish v3.7

I'd like to keep PHP running as a CGI if at all possible... Any recommendations on how to make this work? Thanks!

Lukasz,

Thanks for the tip. I have already tried turning on AcceptPathInfo. I did, just to expirement, switch to the PHP module, and everything works fine.

However, the reason I'd prefer to keep the CGI is that I use this machine for development, and have some scripts that run PHP 4.0 and some that run PHP 5.0. With CGI, I can simply separate them into appropriate folders and create directives based on which directory they reside in.

Any other suggestions for making this work with PHP (CGI)? Any other suggestions for working with both versions of PHP?

Thanks again for the help!

Thanks again for the help... thought I'd post how I ended up solving the problem. In my Apache configuration file I simply added:

<IfDefine Php4>
  LoadModule ...php4 module here
</IfDefine Php4>
<IfDefine Php5>
  LoadModule ...php5 module here
</IfDefine Php5>

When I start Apache, I use "-D [parameter]":

apache -D Php4

or

apache -D Php5

Depending on which version I want to run, this will load the appropriate module and information.

Maybe not the most efficient method... but, works for testing.
