BW Installer - Page cannot be displayed
Posted: Wed 25 of Jun, 2008 (20:05 UTC),Hi,
I am attempting to install BitWeaver R2.02 and once I click the 'Begin Installation button in the BW installer, I hit a 'Page cannot be displayed message'. I have verified NTFS permissions in the BW installation folder.
BW requirements checker shows all required modules installed and showing green. PHPinfo looks ok so *.php files should be rendering without issue.
Thank you for any help you can provide!
Win2k3 server
IIS6
PHP 5.2.6
MS SQL
BW 2.02

Posted: Sun 20 of Jul, 2008 (14:55 UTC),I am having the same issue here. Is there any timeline before this gets resolved, because I really like what I see in 2.0, and I want to get rid of 1.2.1
Are there any tricks to work around this? I don't mind copying some stuff by hand, (settings), but I would like to end with a working solution.....

But I would not touch IIS with a barge pole - I run Apache2 on both Window and Linux :)

That reduces the number of problem solvers by 1. But I like to change my antique installation to the hip and modern R2. My provider isn't going to change webserver for me, and he is one of the best I know, so how do I resolve this?
Could I copy an installation to a WAMP environment, install it there and copy it back to the IIS environment after installation?
Could I fix this by adding more parameters to the URL, and if so, which ones should I add ? I know adding the step helps, all I have to know now is the rest.....

Posted: Mon 21 of Jul, 2008 (10:32 UTC),Hi all - I've successfully installed 2.0.2 on IIS5/MS-SQL2000.
I don't recall getting that error - can you guys try a current build from http://www.bitweaver.org/builds/?fHomepage=builds and see how you go with it.
Might have to meet up on IRC if you can't resolve it.

Posted: Mon 21 of Jul, 2008 (15:18 UTC),I've forwarded the info to the guy installing the software. It is good to know that at least one person is capable of installing and he is also willing to lead the way!
I compared the two versions (the SourceForge one and the one you pointed me to), it at least is different (about 2Kb bigger), which leads me to think that something has changed....
Hopefully this helps. I will report back in either case.

I will try to keep it in this thread, to help others with IIS as well. We tried the install you proposed with not much result.
Firefox gives a small hint what the problem is. Each time we use a button/link that doesn't work, you see firefox jumping to a https:// site. This does not work on our site, leading to an not-found page. If you remove the s and ask for the page it will show a decent page, except for the "Upgrade R1 to R2" button (the normal upgrade button does work, but it results in a badly configured site I can't fix).
The link for the upgrade becomes http://mysite.com/install/upgrade.php (we first see https://...... for this link). When you enter this directly, you end up at the wecome page. I suspect that this is caused because upgrade_R1 flag isn't set, leading to an error condition. I tried to set this flag though the URL, but it doesn't see it.

Also found someone else with the same problem you were having (still unresolved) - http://www.bitweaver.org/forums/index.php?t=10813
EDIT: Ahhh, I did find the issue a few years back - but I've missed a few instances.
I fixed a few more instances tonight - so try tonights build and see if that works for you.

Hi Stephan,
I tried to use the WeeklyBuild (I assume you meant that one with "tonights build") and we end up with a completely empty page....
We end up with:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></HEAD> <BODY></BODY></HTML>
I looked at CVS, and it looks that nothing has changed yet in the installer. Am I looking in the wrong place?
