Joomla installer fails

Hi,

I am trying to install joomla on the gpl version while I am waiting for my license to come through.

When i get to the prerequisites everything is just fine except for mysql.

  • MySQL Support No

Have I done something wrong?

Thanks

is mysql installed and running and is the domain configured to use it, as in server templates-Default domain owner limits.
Check mysql database so the domain can use it.

It's the best I can think of atm.

Hi

Sorry The OS is Debian etch but I seem to have solved the problem by installing my pro license.

Thank you for the response though.

Regards

I am on Ubuntu 8.04 Server, with the Virtualmin GPL version. I am experiencing the same problem as the OP.

I went into the module as you said and everything looks fine. Is there anything specific I should be looking to do in there?

Ok i followed this

http://www.virtualmin.com/forums/help-home-for-newbies/mysql-support-in-...

and got mysql support turned on. Is this a bug that it's missing?

Joe, I tend to agree here, should the installer be installing the php5-mysql and related packages?

Well I loaded the license and it started working.

There must be something I missed.

But hey this is a great product

Now I need to optimize it for my 400mb ram vps

It crashed this morning 5 times running out of memory.

Thanks for your help

Maybe. You haven't told us the OS and version, so I can't be terribly specific.

In short, you need to make sure the Webmin MySQL module knows where MySQL lives and is able to connect to it as the root user--you may need to provide the password to Webmin. So, browse to the Webmin:Servers:MySQL Database Server module, and see if things are working there. Virtualmin only knows about services that Webmin knows about.
