EGS Forums

Hi All. I've tried to install, but am getting the following error when I go to the url. does this look familiar to anyone?

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';', expecting '(' in /home/electliv/public_html/egs/lib/setup.php on line 460

Are you running on the subversion checkout or the packaged release?

Hi there, I like the look of EGS from I can see on the website but do you think you could possibly flesh out the installation docs? They kind of trail off a bit after 'create database'.

Cheers

Hi Minion,

Docs are one of the things we are going to be looking at after Christmas and updating the website - have you got any particular issues/things you are stuck on at the moment?

Thanks

Hi Jake, thanks for getting back.

In particular I got as far as running schema.sql with the database but there are two users in there (jas and pgsql) that don't exist. Did I need to create them? Sorry I'm still a newbie with *nix.

Other than that I think I'm ok. Looking forward to some more docs, I know the development is more important right now.

Cheers

Hi,

You shouldn't need to worry about the users - they are just warnings.

Let me know how you get on and if you have any other questions.

Thanks

Jake

Hi everyone, I like what I am seeing through the website too and have been through the process of evaluating some of the other bloated options until I saw egs today. I have a quick question regarding installation (on Solaris 10 in my case). I have installed perl and updated my apache/tomcat installations, but haven't really used perl before. I have also created the database, imported the schema, changed the db details and made 'data' writable. What do I do next? How do I bring up the log in screen? Is this just through a browser with http://localhost:8080/**? What is the ** in this case? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

PHP is the main requirement, I'm afraid I don't have much experience of that on Solaris. Try getting that installed and pointing the browser at your webserver (http://localhost if it is installed on the same machine as you are browsing on).

Thanks

Jake
