Re: a NEW erorr appeared....

Is that a screenshot of a 0.6-pl2 installation? If not, try that version. The error you are getting may happen if you run your webserver on a non-standard (non-80) port...

I just read through your other problems again, and noticed that you talked about having phpinfo() disabled.

The error seems to be related to just another "security" restriction of your provider; fsockopen/fopen seems to be disabled for URL streams as well.

I suggest you to change your provider or talk him into re-enabling those restrictions. With them you won't be able to use serendipity without much patching.

ini_set() Warning

Post by aoxenreider »

When trying to install Serendipity, I get the following message:

Warning: ini_set() [function.ini-set]: A session is active. You cannot change the session module's ini settings at this time. in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\serendipity\serendipity_config.inc.php on line 16
Serendipity is not yet installed. Please install it now.

I've installed Apache on Win2k, installed PHP5 and configured as per their and your docs. Installed MySQL, but have not set up a database.

I can run the Installation for Serendipity, but it doesn't stay.

Thanks.

Sorry for not stating that earlier. Version Serendipity 0.6-pl3. Downloaded earlier today.

Thanks.

Okay, we fixed that issue in current snapshots and for the upcoming 0.7 release.

As a workaround, please just edit your serendipity_config.inc.php and replace all ini_set() calls with @ini_set() and just forget about that error message, it's not important. :)

Garvin
