EDIT: i have "RavenNuke 2.20.01"

Hi guys,

I have just got my Domain. I already uploaded the "RavenNuke 2.10.01" pack and a style pack. I have no clue how to get this stuff on my site now. It's already uploaded to the site's server.
How can I install it now to see it on my site?

Thanks in advance!

Its very simple but you need to follow exactly all steps described in the HowToInstall.

Modify the config.php file

1. To install the database call http://yoursite/INSTALLATION/InstallSQL.php

before check the installSQL readme and select your language.

2. Setup the rest with setup.php

3. Check NukeSentinel

4. Activet/check the forums administration + your cookie settings there.

5. Don´t forget to check rnconfig also.

I'm stuck on the modifying the config.php file.[/b]

Before I continue I give some information which you might have to know.
The following picture shows my "php My Admin" menu.

----------

1. I clicked on "Databases"

----------

2. I clicked "SQL"

http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m287/Jerichool/ScreenHunter_03Jul240037.gif

----------

3. That is the box where I put in my modified config.php text

http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m287/Jerichool/ScreenHunter_04Jul240039.gif

----------

That's the file to modify.

Code:

$dbhost = 'localhost';


$dbuname = 'rnv220';


$dbpass = 'rnv220';


$dbname = 'rnv22000';


$prefix = 'nuke';


$user_prefix = 'nuke';


$dbtype = 'MySQL';


$sitekey = 'SdFk*fa2rnv21076v28367-dm56w69.3a2fDS+e9';


$gfx_chk = 7;


$subscription_url = '';


$admin_file = 'admin';


$tipath = 'images/topics/';


$display_errors = FALSE;





/*********************************************************************/


/* The configuration options for RavenNuke(tm) have been moved to a  */


/* separate file here:                                               */


/*********************************************************************/


require_once(NUKE_BASE_DIR.'rnconfig.php');

----------

That's how I modified it.

Code:

$dbhost = 'localhost';


$dbuname = 'MY DATABASE USERNAME';


$dbpass = 'MY DATABASE PASSWORD';


$dbname = 'MY DATABASE NAME';


$prefix = 'nuke';


$user_prefix = 'nuke';


$dbtype = 'MySQL';


$sitekey = 'JdDk*tk2rnv19896v28367-tk56w69.3a2fDS+e9';


$gfx_chk = 7;


$subscription_url = '';


$admin_file = 'admin';


$tipath = 'images/topics/';


$display_errors = FALSE;





/*********************************************************************/


/* The configuration options for RavenNuke(tm) have been moved to a  */


/* separate file here:                                               */


/*********************************************************************/


require_once(NUKE_BASE_DIR.'rnconfig.php');

I replaced my real username and password not that you wonder.
I also changed some of the site key values.

----------

4. After clicking "OK" I get this error

http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m287/Jerichool/ScreenHunter_01Jul240024.gif

----------

1. Is my modified code correct?
2. Do I have to put this code in the "SQL" box?

Every help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

The config.php is located in your root you changed it correct if you don´t use an other präfix for nuke but you need to run:

1. To install the database call http://yoursite/INSTALLATION/InstallSQL.php RTM

I had to create the config.php (I have put it in my "INSTALLATION" folder) file by myself cause I didn't see/have it.
But now I have the problem that when I use your link http://yoursite/INSTALLATION/InstallSQL.php it just gives me an error.

This is how I have my stuff on the server.

You put your files in the folder RavenNuke2.20.01/html

Thus your URL would be
http://www.the-kliq.com/RavenNuke2.20.01/html/INSTALLATION/installSQL.php

If you want the site to appear in your root directory upon accessing http://www.the-kliq.com - you will need to move all the files in html to the-kliq.com folder

What files exactly do I have to put in "RavenNuke2.20.01/html"? The files which are in the "INSTALLATION" folder? Or are there specific files, if so tell me which one.

Posted: Thu Jul 24, 2008 2:14 am

Normally you upload all files wich are in the html folder in your root.
And not the html folder.Like Evaders said you need to move your files.
Folders like AddonFiles or PatchLevel3.3Docs you should not upload.
After the Installation you need to rename or delete your INSTALLATION folder.

Posted: Thu Jul 24, 2008 4:01 am

I have put all files which are in my "html" folder in my root (www.the-kliq.com folder, I hope that's my root?!).
The "html" folder is empty now.

http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m287/Jerichool/aa.gif

Is tha right what I did?

I have tried the following links but I also got an error.

http://www.the-kliq.com/the-kliq.com/INSTALLATION/installSQL.php
http://www.the-kliq.com/INSTALLATION/installSQL.php

That's the error it shows me.

http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m287/Jerichool/ScreenHunter_02Jul241201.gif

----------

Maybe it would help me if one of you could show me a picture how you have it.
Or if I delete all the files from the server and upload it again and you tell me step by step what to move where.

EDIT: I have deleted all the files from the server. I'm gonna try it again. I only need to upload the "html" folder to my server, right?
Also to prevend any misunderstandings, where or what is my "root"?

http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m287/Jerichool/ServerPaths.gif

Is it the icon with the computer on the left side "the-kliq.com -" next to the black bar?
Or is it the "www.the-kliq.com" folder?

I am not familiar with your setup, but you can do a test by uploading a simple HTML file to the folder then go to your web address and see if it displays.

Try both options, if neither works it might be worth checking with your host.

JeRicHoOL,

No offense intended, but have you read and carefully followed the Installation Documentation that comes with RavenNuke(tm)? Also, you should check with your host for documentation about your hosting setup.

Raven, the thing is english ain't my mother language. I even have problems to understand some of the technical terms in german because I'm new to all this. So it's obvious that I will have some issues while going through this "How To" manual. It's all just very technical. So I have to ask you guys.
Also, in the manual it's not even described where the "config.php" file is for example. I found out later that you can create this file yourself and I did that and modyfied it but where do I have to put it? Which folder? It's not described.
I need someone who has the time and patience to go with me through this manual step by step. I'm kinda lost. Sorry.

But config.php is mentioned. You should not create it yourself.

I have sent you a PM with the important steps how to install RavenNuke in your language.
Hope this helps.

JeRicHoOL,

Understood. I just wish my conversational German was 1/100 as good as your conversational English Wink

. That's why I asked the question, because you don't appear to have any issues at all with conversing in the forums. In any event, Susann is fluent in German, English, NukeSentinel(tm), and RavenNuke(tm) so you are in very good hands Smile

Ok guys. Thanks to Susann that I'm already at this step.

When I press "Load Core Tables" the site kinda refreshes but nothing happens. The other buttons work. But when I press the first one everything is gone again.

So why doesn't it load the core tables?

That's the error I get at the bottom of my site.

I tried to delete the database table like you PM'd me. Well they didn't get deleted which wondered me a bit. So I left the "phpMyAdmin" and opened my installation link again.

http://www.mysite.com/INSTALLATION/installSQL.php

This time step 1 worked.

I am now on the step where I have to open this link www.mysite.com/admin.php

I just get the "Internal Server Error 505" again. Do I have to contact my webhoster again or can I fix this problem by myself?
When I go to my normal site domain www.the-kliq.com I already have the forum. Very Happy

But why can't I open the admin.php link? :S

Posted: Mon Jul 28, 2008 2:55 pm

You need to drop all RavenNuke tables within your database. Try it out it works. "Möchten Sie wirklich diese Abfrage ausführen : DROP TABLE `nuke_authors`, `nuke_autonews`, etc. dann mit Ja bestätigen.
The internal server error, when calling admin.php, is strange but I don´t believe this is also a result of your hosting setup but who knows...
If its the same issue like before you wouldn´t be able to install the database.
So maybe its something within your .htaccess.
Did you already tried the search function here ?

Posted: Mon Jul 28, 2008 6:22 pm

I dropped the tables and did the installation again. The site works again but the admin.php link still gives me the 505 error. I don't think its my webhosters fault because my site works, just not the admin.php link.

The attributes of my .htaccess file are set to 644.
I tried the admin.php file with the attributes 644 and with 777, both give me the error.

Posted: Mon Jul 28, 2008 6:35 pm

Google for html error codes and learn what a 505 error is. It sounds like it could be your host.

After following the above mentioned steps i got this page where it says "There are no Administrators Accounts yet, proceeed to create the Super User:"

after clicking submit it showed me

then after clicking login it showed me the first page again >>There are no Administrators Accounts yet, proceeed to create the Super User:.. and when i tried to view some link in the site it shows me this

so i want to know as to why iam not being able to register an admin account

Posted: Sat Feb 28, 2009 9:29 am

Did you install RavenNuke version 2.30.01 ?
If not install lthe new version.
Did you run setup.php and filled all the required data there ?
I suppose you missed to create an admin and user.
You could use phpMyadmin and create everything you need in the table
nuke_authors and nuke_users.
But sometimes its just easier to install fresh.

Posted: Sat Feb 28, 2009 9:37 am

i installed RavenNuke_v2.20.01 , i can open my site now and login with the admin account but when i try to register a new account i dont receive any confirmation mail in at the email id that i gave.while registering...

Check all your settings e.g.TegoNuke Mailer Settings, RavenNuke Your Account UsersConfig etc.
