Installation problems and missing files

Posted: Sat Aug 02, 2014 6:17 pm
Hi, I tried posting this earlier but not seeing it on the board so will try again.

I'm trying to evaluate forma as a potential base system for a project, I downloaded the v. 1.2.1 code from sourceforge, but when I drop it into apache, the install is failing at step 2. The next step button seems disabled, and looking in the Chrome JS console, I'm seeing two 404 errors for css files under the /formalms/install/docebo_40/... file path. Looking at the distribution, both as the zip package and the svn controlled code, the install/docebo_40 directory seems to be missing entirely.

Nothing mentioned about external requirements in the installation document supplied with the code.

Have I missed something?

Hi, welcome on board!
On step 2 the installer verifies your server configuration...is any of your server specifications written in red?

Yes, I was using PHP 5.5, which it doesn't like, so I'll have to back that down to 5.4. Although I'm concerned about missing files in later stages of installation since the docebo_40 directory doesn't seem to exist inside the install directory.

Hi ddyer01
thanks for pointing those "NOT FOUND" in the install procedure
the two missing CSS referenced in the procedure are not required for the installation process.
I will open a bug request to remove this unused css reference.

In Forma 1.2 PHP 5.5 is not a valid version . Only PHP 5.2 5.3 and 5.4 versions are allowed

If you does not have enable the "next button" in step 2 , your server lack some requirement. Please review the page , and correct missing requirements.
