Hello all, this "seems" like the perfect solution for my site but I'm having some difficulty with the installation. And this is the "free" version I'm trying to install so everyone knows...
Some other stats you might want to know:
Dedicated server, fedora, apache, mysql
Ive also done several installs on this server using databases and they always use "localhost" and getting the database name is pretty easy.
Ok, so here is what is happening.
Proceed through the install process to the point where I have to input the database credentials. I put them in and then star rating tells me I have to write the config file. I press the write config file button and it presents me with the "here is what you need to put in the config file" box, however, this box is blank.
So no big deal (I guess), I'll just manually put the information in the supplied config file and upload it. So I fill it out and upload and set permissions to 777. Refresh, and then I can use the "next" button to proceed.
However, when I click the next button, it tells me this "Wrong Database! - (CHECK THIS POSSIBLE ERROR, FIX IT, THEN REFRESH THIS PAGE)". I can't for the life of me figure out what I'm doing wrong. The database is on the server. The admin credentials are in place and has full access to that database. I've tried some other paths for DB_HOST but to no avail.
From the config file:
//v 2.3
// START EDITING HERE
$DB_USR = "***";
$DB_PWD = "***";
$DB_NAME = "continentalwindowfashions_com_-_ratepro";
$DB_HOST = "localhost";
// always close your URL with ending slash /
//default URL path like http://www.yourdomain.com/
// where test.php is or your PHP file with rating file
$DEFAULT_URL = "http://www.continentalwindowfashions.com/rate-pro /";
// rate directory, we suggest rate/
// always close the path with ending slash /
// like /home/path/to/your/files/rate/
$RATE_PATH = dirname(__FILE__)."/var/www/html/rate-pro/";
// default template path where template_test.html and
// template.confirmare.html can be found.
// always close the path with ending slash /
// /home/path/to/your/files/rate/
$TEMPLATE_PATH = $RATE_PATH;
// rate URL,
// always close your URL with ending slash /
// like http://www.yourdomain.com/rate/
$RATE_URL = "http://www.continentalwindowfashions.com/rate-pro /";
// END EDITING HERE
// en (English), ro (Romanian) etc.
$LANG = "en";
// time expire (Should be in secs!!! 1 min = 60 sec; 1 hour = 3600 sec; 1 day = 24*3600; 3 days =3*24*3600 )
$TIME_EXPIRE = 3600;
// the type of rating listing
// (choose: option->drop down menu or radio -> radio buttons)
$RATE_TYPE="radio";
// How many stars? full=10 stars half=5 stars
$RATE_STAR_OPTION="half";
?>
Any insight would be great!
Thanks,
