One hiccup in installation

Post by vikram_khatri »

I am new to the open source world including linux, php and mysql as I come from .Net( :lol: ) world. But I was able to get your amazing blog working after a marathon of 6 hours but I got this error.

Check this after running installation web interface.

Warning: main(S9Y_PEAR_PATHXML/RPC.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/html/blog/include/functions.inc.php on line 9

Warning: main(): Failed opening 'S9Y_PEAR_PATHXML/RPC.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear') in /var/www/html/blog/include/functions.inc.php on line 9
Done

Attempting to write .htaccess file...... Done

Please let me know how to fix this. It appears that some path in some config is missing.

I looked at this forum and found one or two poeple facing same issue but did not find a resolution. I followed the instructions as close as possible but it looks that I missed some thing.


Thanks in advance.

The notice you got is no real problem. It was a minor optical slip we have in the 0.8.4 distribution, but it doesn'T do anything bad. XMLRPC is not needed for installation, and the constant was only defined later on.

It's fixed for serendipity 0.9, but as this does not cause any troubles we did not want to release yet another 0.8 maintenance release only because of this.

Best regards,
Garvin
