Have you configured your PHP.ini to show errors? If not, look in your error log and see what the error says. Normally an error on step 7 is a result of either an incorrect password or the database not being available. Please check your error log and see what it says there.

what to do

[Derek Keats]

Where is this code from? Seems like you haven't got the right MDB2 driver.

What is the operating system, etc, the usual stuff that you need to include when reporting a problem. It is really hard to help without that info.

iam using ubuntu 12.05

i configured now i got this message
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: MDB2_Driver_mysql::_isNewLinkSet(). in /usr/share/php/MDB2.php on line 1936

[Derek Keats]

And the other question? Is the code from subversion, and is it up to date? Sorry, but people will not respond to your queries without this information. We are all volunteers here.

[Derek Keats]

What command did you use to install PEAR, the full history...

do 

history > cmds.txt

Then edit it to remove older stuff, and then paste it in an email.

[Derek Keats]

Odd, I am running 12.04 and an install takes < 3 minutes every time. 

Did you run the commands from the shellscripts repository?

[Derek Keats]

can you add me on google chat, maybe I can help faster

I have a meeting at 11 SA time though & it will take long so needs to be fast

Must be another mess with PEAR again then.

I rue the day we ever used it.

Is your UBUNTU uptodate?

i.e.

apt-get update && apt-get upgrade

just to make sure you haven't got a wonky version of PHP or something.

[Frank Tilugulilwa]

Regina, which path did you put for PEAR libraries ?

--
Frank

[Frank Tilugulilwa]

For Ubuntu it is /usr/share/php/ otherwise try to clear your browser cache and re-test it will work,

Frank

[regina babu]

hello frank
im using ubuntu 12.04
the PEAR library  is /usr/share/php/  and cleared the browser cache i got

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: MDB2_Driver_mysql::_isNewLinkSet(). in /usr/share/php/MDB2.php on line 1936

[Frank Tilugulilwa]

mmmh!

Suggestions :
As Derek suggested, update your install if you have not done so : 
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

see if it finished successfully,  then try to install from 1st step.

[Derek Keats]

I just got a new machine delivered, and will be setting it up tonight, I will see if I can replicate your problem.

[regina babu]

frank i have done everything but no changes ,i dont what to, may be there problem on installation of chisimba my be some remind me on installation stages so so i will compare ,to start a fresh installation of ubuntu, or there a problem on ubuntu 12.04 lts version any suggestion

[Frank Tilugulilwa]

Regina,

I have more than two chisimba installation in Ubuntu 12.04. Is there a way we can access you machine remotely ?
--
Frank

[regina babu]

may be you can tell me what to do, so as you can access remotely , because i don't have any idea

[Salman Noor]

I have kind of following this thread. I think the problem is the version of pear drivers. I had a similiar problem when I installed chisimba for the first time. Apparently, you cannot install some of the latest versions of pear drivers or your chisimba installation does not work.

type in 'pear list' in the terminal and you should get a list of installed packages. The list below are the main pear packages installed on my machine required to run chisimba.

MDB2_Driver_mysql 1.5.0b2 beta
MDB2_Driver_pgsql 1.5.0b2 beta
MDB2_Schema       0.8.4   beta
PEAR              1.9.2   stable
XML_Parser        1.2.8   stable
XML_Serializer    0.18.0  beta
XML_Util          1.2.1   stable

For instance, the latest version of MDB2_Driver_mysql is 1.5.0b3 which seems to crash the chisimba installation. If you choose to install MDB2_Driver_mysql 1.5.0b2, the chisimba installation just works. You just need the right versions of these Pear drivers.

Go to pear website.
http://pear.php.net/package/

Search for the required packages and download the RIGHT versions as the list above indicates. The website also gives you the dependencies of each pear library as well. Maybe one of those dependencies are not installed.

Download the right versions of the pear libs.

To install simply type in:
sudo pear install [name of the pear package you downloaded]

If you have that pear package already installed:
sudo pear uninstall [pear package]


I prefer manually downloading and installing the pear dependencies myself. Hopefully, this solution will work for you. I know it works for me.
