Hi Hahn,

Can I ask which instruction set were you following? This will help
narrow things down.

Thanks,
John

at this point

 Configure initial ResourceSpace settings

  1. Open Internet Explorer
  2. Navigate to http://127.0.0.1/resourcespace/
  3. Enter the following parameters:

         MySQL Server -------> 127.0.0.1
         MySQL Username -------> root
         MySQL Password -------> same as MySQL installation
         MySQL Database -------> resourcespace
         MySQL Binary Path -------> "make blank"

         Base URL -------> http://(name-of-server)/resourcespace // its highlight yellow
         Email from address -------> valid-...@domainname.com
         Email notify -------> valid-...@domainname.com
         Spider Password -------> leave as is or change to anything you like

         Secure (https) mode -------> leave unchecked

         Note: Be sure to use a forward slash (/) for the following directory paths, not backslashes (\):

         Imagemagick Path -------> c:/imagemagick

For the first problem, do you have it set to "http://name-of-machine/
resourcespace" or are you specifying an IP address? You should use a
name, not IP.

For 2 and 3, try doing this (it might take care of the first issue
too):

1. Don't use the ResourceSpace initial setup page. Instead create a
blank text file called "config.php" in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\resourcespace
\include
2. Copy and paste the following info into the config.php file:

<?php
###############################
## ResourceSpace
## Local Configuration Script
###############################

# All custom settings should be entered in this file.
# Options may be copied from config.default.php and configured here.

# MySQL database settings
$mysql_server = '127.0.0.1';
$mysql_username = 'root';
$mysql_password = 'type-your-sql-password-here';
$mysql_db = 'resourcespace';

# Base URL of the installation
$baseurl = 'http://name-of-machine/resourcespace';

# Email settings
$email_from = 'resour...@domain.local';
$email_notify = 'resour...@domain.local';

$spider_password = 'ma39jd073jf0983';
$scramble_key = 'WuAd3FSf939f325h';

# Paths
$imagemagick_path = 'c:/imagemagick';
$ghostscript_path = 'c:/gs/gs8.71/bin';
$ffmpeg_path = 'c:/ffmpeg/bin';
$exiftool_path = 'c:/exiftool';
$research_request = false;
$config_windows = true;
$defaultlanguage = 'en-US';
$applicationname = 'Company Name, Inc.';
$ftp_server = 'my.ftp.server';
$ftp_username = 'my_username';
$ftp_password = 'my_password';
$ftp_defaultfolder = 'temp/';





3. Make sure to specify your MySQL password, baseurl (use computer
name, not IP), email addresses, type a random spider key and scramble
key, check the PATH information for each program, and customize your
application name.

4. Save the file.

5. Open a browser and navigate to http://name-of-machine/resourcespace

Hopefully that gets you in to RS, but this procedure is not normal.

Thanks,
John
