VCD-db

[spaceman]

Cannot get started with this fine looking app as i get an error:

Code: Select all

Oops an exception occurred .. Database Access misconfigured. Cannot procceed without database access Check the connection settings to solve the problem.

Cheers.

Sounds like the install did not take place correctly.
The easiest thing would be to uninstall and reinstall the app.

As background:
The one-click installer creates a script file that sets up the database (/var/hda/web-apps/vcddb/html/setup/amahi-init.php)
and also sets the config.php file correctly.

Sadly this has not resolved the problem.

Sadly this has not resolved the problem.

No-one else has had this issue -- we would like to determine the root cause.
Please drop by the IRC channel for support (freenode #amahi) -- link at the bottom of your http://hda page.

spaceman, did you try uninstalling it and reinstalling?

in any case, we'd like to see the contents of this file:

Code: Select all

/var/log/amahi-app-installer.log

well, at least the last few lines of it.

also, the files in

Code: Select all

/var/hda/web-apps/vcddb/logs/

will also help, probably more.

Dammit, sorry haven't stopped by for a while. I will post this data when I sort out Ajaxterm, I run the server headless (I only have one USB keyboard LOL), and I really want to avoid digging out another monitor, keyboard and mouse.

[cpg]

that's fine, you can use ssh to login to the server (putty is a very good program to do ssh).

[spaceman]

OK...I'm working on the server today! First things first, begin a GUI lover, I had to refresh my knowledge of using VNC...aha! You need a colon in HDA1 [moron!]. Now I can connect to the box. It's been working fine really I just haven't been able to remote on. Right just install vcd-db again...then the final lines in the that log file will be relevent...

Hmmm...do they help?

[cpg]

ok

1) how did you install amahi that patch is not available??? this must be a missing dependency. did you install from the full DVD or some other way?

2) to fix this, please use: yum -y install patch

then uninstall and reinstall the app.

[spaceman]

I think I installed Amahi over an existing Fedora 9 install...I used the instructions...not sure now, that was some time ago.

Anyway that genius bit of troubleshooting has the VCD-DB one click install working out of the box as it should, thank you!
