Title: While installing EZ-portal I got this error
Post by: silverjay57 on November 30, 2008, 05:51:55 am
Table 'GOOTC_forum.smf_ezp_settings' doesn't exist
File: /home/content/s/i/l/silverjay57/html/forum/Sources/Subs-EzPortalMain.php
Line: 19

Is there a way to manually install this table?
As I was doing this inside the Admin section of the forum, is there another way to install this?

Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Was it being installed manually? Or did you use the package installer?
Did it create any of the other tables inside the database.

They have a prefix of smf_ezp_

It did install the ez-portalmain.php and the exportal-convert.php.
Does that help?

Here are the two manually queries
Code: [Select]
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS smf_ezp_settings (
  variable tinytext NOT NULL,
  value text NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (variable(30))
) TYPE=MyISAM;


INSERT IGNORE INTO smf_ezp_settings
(variable, value)
VALUES
('ezp_allowstats', '1'),
('ezp_portal_enable', '1'),
('ezp_portal_homepage_title', ''),
('ezp_shoutbox_enable','0');

If there are no tables. I would try to uninstall then reinstall.
I just release EzPortal 0.2.

Check if that helps.

If not check your forum's error log and see if there are any errors and tell me what happens when the install completes for EzPortal

Open up your  index.php in the root directory of your forum
Find and remove
SetupEzPortal();
Then you should be able to get back to the admin area.

I know this is such a newbie question,
but where do I open that up in?
MySQL?
or open that from the File Manager

Silverjay57, as long as you don't have any mods in your forum currently, you try manually fixing it the way I did. I re downloaded my version of SMF, 1.1.7, then unzipped the package and took Load.php file and moved it to the corresponding place on my site. Then, I tried installing again. For me it worked, but if not, open up load.php, and go to the manual instructions and try and complete them. (You can even skip the reinstall of load.php as it poses some risks.)

Hope that helps, if not, sorry for wasting your time.

Sincerely,
TedM

Well I do have about 5 other mods running on that forum. One is a Gallery with pictures on it. So I would hate to uninstall all of that.
I have no problems installing it manually. I just need to see where I need to put all the tables and thier configuration.

Like I said before. This forum is for a Mustang show I put on in March each year. And my advertising is out for 2009 right now, so website traffic is up.
Right now since the forum is working, I am going to keep it that way currently.
And in April, I will take the forums down and get EzPortal to run completely as it should be doing.

TedM, thanks for the write up, I will see how it turns out in April.
If anyone else has any ideas, I would love to hear them!

I am new at the whole php thing. I just took my main website to php (Joomla) this past year. (I was running Frontpage via FTP)
So I have a learning curve here.

Thanks again EzPortal for making a very cool mod for SMF. I have seen it running on my friends forums and I like it. And I will get it running on my forum!
