  Hi Randy, thanks for figuring out the LightHouse bugtracker, it's a cool system but a little confusing.

  you may want to create a "fresh" folder and use the php files from http://dbscript.net/omb.zip rather than the "graphical" install

  after you get the latest files installed, try browsing to yoursite/?migrate to bring the database schema current

  you can update this ticket with a comment or post in the microforum at openmicroblogger.org

  thanks!

  Hi Brian,

  Thank you for your prompt response. I installed a clean inversion and copied the .yml files. It added two php tables, but I still get a blank page with no error messages. What can I do to be of help.

  Hi Brian,

  Sorry to be a pest. Just trying to clarify what I don't know so you can help me understand where I went wrong. I am not sure I understand uploading sql blobs. I have uploaded the whole unzipped package, but my php admin page only has 11 tables and my cache is empty.

  I appreciate your help

  Hi Randy,

  The installation needs to be easier, more like WordPress, i'm working on that.

  The problem is likely related to your Web server, do you have a Windows-based Web server? I haven't tested in that environment lately, but it should work, theoretically. I will try it out on my Windows server and get back to you.

  Randy,

  could you try this:

  open the file /db/boot.php

  and copy/paste the following at the top of the file (but after the 1st line that says "<?php")

  ini_set('display_errors','1'); ini_set('display_startup_errors','1'); error_reporting (E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE );

  now see if you get a visible error

  thanks!

  Good Monday Morning Brian,

  I purchased a Linux hosting package and have tried the installation several times there and still get a blank page. Is there anything I can send you or take screen capture of that would be helpful?

  Thank you in advance for your help.

  Randy, I do see a problem with your config.yml right away

  maybe your Windows text editor is making it hard to see this:

  there is an extra Carriage Return after the username line

  development: adapter: mysql database: xxx username: xxx << THERE IS A LINE BREAK HERE CAUSING PROBLEM >> password: xxx host: mysql500.ixwebhosting.com

  Brian,

  Thank you!! I have made that change as well and still have a blank page.

  Randy

  sorry for the trouble, I'm grateful that you have brought it here and let me help you attempt to solve the problem.

  it is not necessarily your fault or mine, it could be a compatibility issue with your hosting even if it is linux based.

  I wonder if you would do me a favor and try my instruction from before again now that you are on a unix host:

  open the file /db/boot.php

  and copy/paste the following at the top of the file (but after the 1st line that says "<?php")

  ini_set('display_errors','1'); ini_set('display_startup_errors','1'); error_reporting (E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE );

  if you are still getting a blank page, you are welcome to e-mail me your hosting login info and I will investigate

  cheers -- Brian

  Randy I had a bug report that may have been related. It is fixed in the latest beta if you want to give it a shot.

  Great to hear it! Nice. That's a good question about the admin page. There is no admin page yet! The first registered user has superuser privileges so he can delete any post. The config file controls how the system works, but I'm working on a Web admin page. To change your categories you can use PHPMyAdmin or whatever database tool you have to edit records in the "categories" table.

  Hi Brian,

  Neophyte here. I need some help understanding the functinality of open microblogger. I am wanting something that can receive and transmit or share cellphone generated or web generated text messages. Am I on the right track or could you direct me where I need to go. I am wanting to use this as a tool to help a hotel property collect guest feedback.

  Thank you again. I have made my first post and am now exploring some of the apps available.

  Also what is this ticket system that is being used here?

  Randy
