Endless Loop In Install


Subject: Endless Loop In Install
Hi

There´s an endless loop in the install due to a line in common php.

It can drive everybody nuts.

open common.php

find:
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
include(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'config.' . PHP_EXT);

if(!defined('IP_INSTALLED') && !defined('IN_INSTALL'))
{
header('Location: ' . IP_ROOT_PATH . 'install/install.' . PHP_EXT);
exit;
}

include(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'includes/constants.' . PHP_EXT);
include(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'includes/template.' . PHP_EXT);
include(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'includes/sessions.' . PHP_EXT);
include(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'includes/auth.' . PHP_EXT);
include(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'includes/functions.' . PHP_EXT);
include(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'includes/functions_categories_hierarchy.' . PHP_EXT);


replace with
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
include(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'config.' . PHP_EXT);
include(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'includes/constants.' . PHP_EXT);
include(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'includes/template.' . PHP_EXT);
include(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'includes/sessions.' . PHP_EXT);
include(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'includes/auth.' . PHP_EXT);
include(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'includes/functions.' . PHP_EXT);
include(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'includes/functions_categories_hierarchy.' . PHP_EXT);


afterwards you´ve got to go to install via : http/yoursite/install/install.php.

IMHO
it´s not the nicest way, but it work´s you around the loop

It's not a endless while ... The install/install.php file define the IN_INSTALL so the page won't change ...

Well. but some of us are having thgis problem.

specialy in spain. don´t know why, but this helps getting around it.

FF has detected that the server is redirecting in a way, it never ends

Does IE or any other browser that you address the install file create the same problem?

Subject: Re: Endless Loop In Install
IE is creating a similar problem.

It just shows the Icy link ( html) and says could not conect to server.

Is this updating Icy Phoenix or a fresh install?

Subject: Re: Endless Loop In Install
this happens only on update

Subject: Re: Endless Loop In Install
It happens only under certain conditions (CONSTANTS VARS not renamed for example).

I have to improve that part to avoid this error.

Thanks for reporting.

This is what happend to many people updating from earlier versions and PhpBB2.

A lot of boards went in the sh...er about that
