Error Loading Seagull Framework

[918 Printery]

I'll start off by saying I am very VERY green when it comes to this stuff. I muddle my way through and it works out most of the time.

I get to step 4 and get the error

*Database username: cannot connect to the db, please check all credentials

DEBUG INFO:
CODE: -111

Seagull Version 0.6.2 Apache/1.3.41 (Darwin) PHP/4.4.9Darwin 8.11.0, Power Macintosh

Any help is very appreciated.

Hi Lammy

I would try a more recent version of Seagull

• 1.0.4 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/370960/seagull-1.0.4.zip

Just make sure you use the correct details for the MySQL database you’re connecting to.

cheers

Demian

Ok, that may be an issue. I did the install for MYSQL, but I don't recall it setting up any databases.

I presumed part of the Seagull set up as to create a database since it doesn't allow me to name the database to connect to, only asks for the user and password. Which to my understanding in the normal install of MYSQL is mysql and a blank password.

The installer does ask you for a name to give the new database it creates, it’s on the next screen.  But you still need to be able to connect to the database server.   Probably mysql_SGL is the best driver to choose.

Thank you so much for your help. I was able to connect to the database server from terminal as part of the set up so that should be good. I will try the newer version of seagull.

Hi Demian,

   Got a chance to try the newer version and got this error.


Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_OLD_FUNCTION' or `T_FUNCTION' or `T_VAR' or `'}'' in /Library/WebServer/Documents/seagull/lib/SGL/FrontController.php on line 81

Ok, so I played around some. Ended up removing and reinstalling MySQL and got through step 4 but now get this error at step 5

*Database name: there was an error creating the database


Errors: DB Error: insufficient permissions
CREATE DATABASE `seagulldb` [nativecode=1044 ** Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database 'seagulldb']

The error is quite clear: “insufficient permissions”

This forum is for support for the Seagull code, it is assumed you are already familiar with setting up a database and allocating the required permissions.

I have a baby on the way any day now so won’t be available for a little bit ;-) 

[918 Printery]

Not familiar enough to know where seagull is trying to write the database?

I'm in no rush to figure this out. Just trying to play around with a bit of beta software I found that require seagull.

Good luck to you and momma on the new baby!
