tikidblib error before first screen

posts: 1

Problem installing TikiWiki 1.8.3: After uploading files through FTP, creating the database, editing the tiki-db.php file and chmoding several folders, I get this:

Warning: php_uname() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/oui/public_html/nandop/lib/pear/Date/TimeZone.php on line 3655


Warning: mysql error: Table 'oui_tiki.tiki_preferences' doesn't exist in query:
select `name` ,`value` from `tiki_preferences`
in /home/oui/public_html/nandop/lib/tikidblib.php on line 133

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/oui/public_html/nandop/lib/tikidblib.php on line 151


After this I ran the install script, and firstly it found a few more folders for me to chmod. Now the install script doesn't display anything.

I still get the same error above. I appreciate any help; it is frustrating not to even see the first screen...

Hi,

Im guessing your on shared hosting, and it looks like they have disabled some of PHPs functions. Also its likely that the blank pages are a result of the PHP memory_limit being set to 8Mb. There is a link from InstallTiki with the requirements Tiki needs to run. Ideal would be memory_limit to 16Mb but 12mb should be good. Mines set to 32mb

If you are indeed on shared hosting, you may have no option but to change. TikiFriendlyHosts should be able to guide you there.
