Magento

There is no install directory in the zip file.
How will I then be able to install the system?

Please, I need help on this.

You don’t need the directory, just point your browser to http://example.com/ and it will redirect you to the right place

Also, there’s a guide available at

http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base/entry/magento-installation-guide

I did just that and a NOT FOUND error page came up, saying that the url /magento/install was not found on the server.

I am using windows xp pro myself and extracted the magnetto under my www folder and the closest install file i see is in magento\app\code\core\Mage\Install\Model
and it will not see it that deep ? i am using Apache/2.2.4 (Win32)
PHP Version 5.2.3
MySQL client version: 5.0.37
running from Wamp 5
Maybe there is something simple i am missing or need to just put a certain folder from the magneto.zip in the root ?
Any help would be great thx

Yes. I am currently changing the settings to enable .htaccess. It’s not working yet though but I think that’s the reason.

If you can give me some help concerning enabling .htaccess that would be great.

all i get is this..

Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@localhost and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
should i make a thread in forums i guess

Have the same problem…
it redirects to /install and I get a 404 saying /dev/magento/install does not exist… i extracted from the tar

I have php 5.2 or newer
Apache 2.2.4
Rewrites are enabled
.htaccess are enabled

@deluse: magento is developed under MVC paradigm, the install directory in the URL is not a physical directory under your filesystem.

Hey there,

while installing i get this errormessage:

SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 2014 Cannot execute queries while other unbuffered queries are active.  Consider using PDOStatement::fetchAll().  Alternatively, if your code is only ever going to run against mysql, you may enable query buffering by setting the PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_USE_BUFFERED_QUERY attribute.

System:
WinXp
Apache2
Php 5.2.3 <- Pdo is enabled
mysql: 5.0.45-community-nt

any ideas?

I am on Wamp5, i installed mod_rewrite and php pdo_mysql and mcrypt…

but i have this message :

“http://localhost:80/magento/” is not accessible

Why :80 in url ?

does the folder magento/ exist in your server root?

:80 is the default http port, does your server listen on port 80? port 8080 is also common?!

:80 is the default port for httpd. I doubt that’s the cause of the site being inaccessible. Check your permissions. I’m not sure how to do that on Windows, though.

Windows does not have a filepermission system like unix/linux (Chmod)

It’s not like Unix, but there are file permissions. At least on Sever 2003 there are. Not sure about XP as I’ve never run apache there. I think you need to right click the file and select the security tab.

I my mod_rewrite working on winxp.

I read the following article:
http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum92/2593.htm

I also had to uncomment the mod_rewrite module as well.

One thing about the article. I had to remove the .txt from the htaccess file in the apache config file that they said should be included.

Yep, on 2003 you right click and select security. I just confirmed it on my domain controller. Here is how to do it in XP: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308421

Apparently you have to disable simple file sharing or join a domain to get the security tab to pop up.

I do have the problem also : install directory not found ... my mod_rewrite is enabled.

@smoove
Apparently that is caused by a bug in PHP and lack of support for stored procedures on Windows machines.  I found a workaround here: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=39858

It is just a hack and probably shouldn’t be used in a production environment.  Then again this is just a beta release so maybe the good folks at Varien can come up with a better workaround.

@mweather: Never used Win Sever 2003, didn’t know it supports filepermissions, thx for the info.

@Timothy:
Thank you, that worked for me!
All you have to do is replace your php_pdo_mysql.dll (in php/ext/) with this one:
http://source.hackthissite.org/wsvn/HTSv4/trunk/PDO/php_pdo_mysql.dll

for everyone having the problem with “install directory not found” it is an .htaccess problem
you need to make sure (as i thought it was already setup) that if you are virtually hosted that you are able to use .htaccess files, as i was not… my buddy had to turn on htaccess use for my domain, now everything works, oh i also had to install mcrypt, but it’s working and i must admit, this software is amazing, not only to use but to look at, it’s so much better even in it’s beta phase than Zen, Cube, osC… amazing work from the people at Varien, congrats

I also had to disable simple file sharing as well. Sorry that I left that out and give full write permissions to the directory.

Kyle, how did you made sure that you are able to use .htaccess files ? Thanks for this point !

Someone here where Magento works under XAMPP?

I think it was nice to test the features on local system before it goes public.

my server works with zend framework.
so i know for sure it has everything needed such as .htaccess modrewrite etc…

but how come i’m getting 404 not found error?

does magento come with the correct .htaccess file needed by zend framework’s mvc paradigm?

i found the reason why it didn’t work!

apparently, i think the zip file does not contain the .htaccess file.... where the .tar file does!!

To speed up installation time:

upload the tar.gz file directly to your server and use SSH to browse to that directory and un-tar it:

cd /path/to/magento.tar.gz
tar -xzvf magento.tar.gz

Beats uploading all the files individually via FTP and helps ensure original directory structure and consistency.

Just after define database in the install wizard, i got this error:
Fatal error: Call to a member function children() on a non-object in C:\magento\app\code\core\Mage\Core\Model\Config.php on line 655

any idea??
thanks!

For everyone having the problem with �install directory not found� and using XAMPP on a Mac OSX, you have to enable .htaccess support by editing httpd.conf file in /Applications/xampp/etc/httpd.conf:

Change:

AllowOverride AuthConfig

to

AllowOverride All

inside

<Directory “/Applications/xampp/xamppfiles/htdocs">
</Directory>

and restart the XAM

Hi, I am trying to install Magento on Windows Server 2003 with PHP 5.2.1 and Apache Apache/2.2.4 with rewrite_mod enabled.

As it not a live web server, there is no SSL connection available. So I am giving Secure Protocol as http and port 80 during installation. I am giving correct database name, and authentication details too. I have also set the write permissions to Magento Directory. After second step of installation it throws exception like below:

exception ‘Mage_Core_Exception’ with message ‘Error in file: “C:\www\magento\app\code\core\Mage\Core\sql\core_setup\mysql4-upgrade-0.6.1-0.6.2.sql” - SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 2006 MySQL server has gone away’ in C:\www\magento\app\Mage.php:288

Can anybody help me??? 

Can’t seem to get pdo_mysql loaded on my server. Is there a work around? Or is this a road black i can surpass???

Not Found

The requested URL /magento/install/ was not found on this server.

so when i looked into the magento folder, i cant locate a folder like install.

Can you help me!

Jens.

p.s. great software.

hey, i really like the big thing you are doing in here, but my problem is that my server got an old PHP (4.4) and i can’t install the system after 5 very long hours of uploading. the system tells me something about trying to install with “PHP-CGI”, i’ve got no idea what that means. can someone help me with that?

Getting this error on install and it seems Im not alone.

I am newbie who tries to troubleshoot my way through these type of installs.  Any help would REALLY be appreciated since their is not much documentation obviously.

Is this an .htaccess problem?  It didnt match the earlier description and also I host with GoDaddy and I think it is on with them (I used it in an OSCommerce build).

Any other ideas?  Thanks and I cant wait to test the product!

I don’t get it- I have downloaded Magento, unzipped it and uploaded all files to my server, changed the permissions on the files mentione din the instructions, but I get this error message:

Not Found

The requested URL /install/ was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I see no Install folder in the contents of the Magento Zip file.

What am I missing?

Just wanted to say that on my system (Debian Etch 2.6.21-2-686, Apache/2.2.4, PHP Version 5.2.3-1+b1, MySQL 5.0.45) installation worked without any problems at all.
I just had to add this to my apache2 configuration to make the .htaccess work:

<Directory “/var/www/magento">
AllowOverride All
</Directory>

The only thing that bugged me during installation was the fact that I had to alter directory rights, then click “continue”, then I was presented some more “directory not writable"-errors, altered directory rights again, got some more errors etc. Here it would be nice to have one list of things to change rather than bits and pieces.

You just have to change everything under those directories, as well. I just switched from Filezilla to SmartFTP temporarily so that I could check a button that would alter permissions recursively.

I’ve been having the same problem as everyone else.

I changed the .htaccess rewrite rules to:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|media|skin|js|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /magento/index.php/$1 [L]

seems to be working now

But now im having the PDO errors.
anyone sorted out that problem?

Dear *,

Well, for those of you who have the following problem :

-> You browser is saying that the url /magento/install was NOT FOUND on the server.

You have to set the AllowOverride Option from None to All in your /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
apache config file as shown below.

Rem: Do not know where is put the Apache configuration file for M$ Windows platform but the file name should be the same httpd.conf. So just do a search on you system.

#
# AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files.
# It can be “All”, “None”, or any combination of the keywords:
# Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
#
# AllowOverride None
AllowOverride All

BTW, do not forget to restart you deamon - service for M$ Windows users -.

One thing again, I do not really know what kind of impact this option have when it is changed so I would not recommand to do that execice on production machine.

if you have any comment feel free to contact me or add a message in that forum.

Hi guys,
for people having install problems.
I found the default .htaccess rewrite rules were causing a server error (500), so I changed them to the same syntax that CodeIgniter uses:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|media|skin|js|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /magento/index.php/$1 [L]

I found this fixed the problem.

[win64x, apache 2.2.4, php5.2.3, mysql5.0.45]

Cheers,
Tobz

also there is a php_pdo_mysql.dll link floating around that fixed the pdo errors for me too.

Thanks Tobz,
You suggestion helped me getting to the install screen. I used a shared hosting plan with 1and1.

However I also had to comment out the line for magic_quotes_gpc from my .htaccess file for it to work. Otherwise I was getting Internal Server Error
#php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off

I checked the server setting and this flag is ON by default. Can someone advice wether magento could work without this line?

Tobz,

You’re my star, it’s work nice now !! i see install page, this is beautiful )

I am trying to install Magento on a Mac using MAMP pro. I followed all the steps and i still get
----------
Not Found

The requested URL /install/ was not found on this server.
----------

make sure you have mod_rewrite in your apache build (im not sure if it comes compiled into osx, it probably does) and make sure your rewrite rule is the correct path to your index.php.
check your error logs should help find what file is trying to load.

I am trying to install Magento on a Mac using MAMP pro. I followed all the steps and i still get
----------
Not Found

The requested URL /install/ was not found on this server.
----------

I got this this resolved. First when placing files into htdocs unzip Magento and keep /magento/ folder in your directory don’t move the files out of the folder and run your site in magento unzipped folder. I guess when i moved files outside of the folder something got screwed up.

Next upgrade MAMP Pro to a 1.7 version or higher, because it you will need Mcrypt in order to install.

This should work.

I encounter “Cannot execute queries while other unbuffered queries are active.  Consider using PDOStatement::fetchAll().  Alternatively, if your code is only ever going to run against mysql, you may enable query buffering by setting the PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_USE_BUFFERED_QUERY attribute.” error when I tried to install Magento by accessing /magento/install/, what should I do?

I tried installing but after some battle and finally getting the install to show properly I am now getting this error during install “PHP Extension “pdo_mysql” must be loaded”

Is there any work around to this? I contacted my hosting and they said the only way they could install this module would be for me to move to a dedicated server so I am hoping there’s another way than having to add the module to the entire server. Maybe there’s something similar to the php5-cgi workaround?

"Not Found
The requested URL /install/ was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

“

I have installed as per the instructions above and I am getting the same error as everyone else. As I am using site5 hosting and have added the fix mentioned for handling php5, I am guessing this is something to do with the script or the webserver not understanding the /install/ request.

I installed from ssh and moved the files from the magento folder up one directory into the root webserver directory.

But as the index.php is calling the /install/ from app/Mage.php I know that the php is working.

Am I doing something stupid?

Iam getting the same error !!!

Can any one help me out ..

Hy!
If got a problem while running the install procedure. There is a Bug on creating the Database structure i think.

hello

y am interested of magneto installation for prove shop italian

help me

thanks

Hi all,

Thanks for the help !!.

I have done it on Linux with xampp installed ( u will get more info from : http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html#385 )

after the xampp installation just de-compress your .tar file into the htdocs directory, and open the url http://localhost/magento

the browser will guide you through the installation steps !!!  Simple

May be u need to increase the memory size in php.ini if you get some error like :

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 196606 bytes)

I think this info may help you to sort out installation problem on Linux.

Regards,
Baseev.

During install I get:
One from PHP Extensions “0,1” must be loaded

yikes, haven’t even seen it on forums anywhere!

also, I ddi have to chaneg the pdo_mysql to mysqli hack as well.

any thoughts?

There is NO install directory in the magento-0.6.13160.zip download, thus can’t install.

I run Cubecart and OScommerce on my local machine, have all correct Apache, PHP, MySQL, database installed on my local machine ( I use a Intel Based Mac) but all i get when i try to start Magento is the 404 error .. . . . .

Not Found
The requested URL /~mysite/magento/install/ was not found on this server.

which is correct because there is NO install directory in the Magento folder.

Please help.

you kidding me and waste of my time!

Not Found

The requested URL /magento/install/ was not found on this server.

anada,

Magento uses mod_rewrite to create the /install/ path in the url. There is NO install folder. If you do not know what mod_rewrite is then you need to speak to the person or company that operates your server to install it.

Michael’s forum link is also useful if you want to check yourself.

(note to coders)

Perhaps for the ease of installation it would be sensible to create an install folder, which can be deleted later on. This is common practice for a lot on apps, people understand it. Or, perhaps an explanation inserted into the text above as to why an /install/ folder is not used would stop comments like anada’s.

Thanks

Paul

I am new to magento but i solved this issue (The requested URL /magento/install/ was not found on this server) with enablin override option in http.conf file of my apache server.
Search for

AllowOverride

Set to

AllowOverride All

I hope this helps

Cheers

Does someone got a solution for lighttpd (lighty)??

I would like to try it on my LOCAL WAMP5 SERVER. I tried to open it but the am not getting any INSTALL PAGE ( like i always get it in OSCOMMERCE & JOOMLA )

Is there any one who can help me with it. Thanks in advance.

Hi! My host has PHP5 installed but it does not seem to be recognized by magento.. looking at the help guides on my hosting web site it is said somewhere that in order to change the php version , I need to create an .htaccess file and write SetEnv PHP_VER 5… I did add this line and now get a 404 error type..could anyone help please? many thanks..

Ive done everything it says here but still get this messege

Whoops, it looks like you have an invalid PHP version.
Magento supports PHP 5.2.0 or newer. Find out how to install Magento using PHP-CGI as a work-around.

Ive followed it and it doesnt work still im using Hostgator on the swamp plan

Can anyone help me the address is http://www.ukimportdirect.com

Can’t get past the configuration page - it just keeps returning to that page ... no errors or warnings. All fields remain filled in except the database password field (I am using the correct db pass).

Anyone have any ideas what might be causing that?

well, every thing was fine, until that at http://www.mydomain.com/magento/install/wizard/configPost/

And my website is now down :(

Zend_Db_Statement_Mysqli_Exception Object
(
[message:protected] => Mysqli statement execute error : Incorrect arguments to mysql_stmt_execute
....
the rest of the message removed by Michael

Can’t get past the Configuration screen with these warnings:

o PHP Extension “mcrypt” must be loaded
o PHP Extension “curl” must be loaded

My info,php page indicates they are both enabled.
mycrpt 2.4.x
libcurl/7.17.1 OpenSSL/0.9.7a zlib/1.2.1.2

Running on Linux:
Apache/1.3.37
MySQL 4.1.22
PHP 5.2

My host tells me it’s because the standard install of php 5 doesn’t contain curl or mcrpyt. It’s available for php4 which is what my info.php file was seeing on the root directory. I’ve had to enable php 5 via .htaccess within the directory Magento is installed in, so no curl or mcrypt. Bit restrictive…

How to upgrade from 0.6.137 to 0.6.140.

Do we need to follow as the fresh installation or any other way from upgradation.

thanks.

Just thought I’d note my experiences installing Magento on OS X server 10.4.9, (for local testing).

I updated the default PHP 4 module to PHP 5 by using Marc Liyanage’s package found here:
http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/php/

I then had the 404 error that seems to be a common issue, although none of the edits above resolved it. My specific solution was to edit the httpd.conf file at /private/etc/httpd/httpd.conf and duplicate the following section:

<Directory “/">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>

and create a new block like so:

<Directory “/Library/WebServer/Documents/magento">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>

The installation wizard then worked as planned.

The only other thing to note was that during installation, the database address needed to be 127.0.0.1 and not localhost, as this raised and error. (I had also made this edit suggested by Marc: http://www.entropy.ch/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?p=9499#9499)

I hope that this is of help to someone.

Hello,
I’m confused of which magento version should I download ?
Full version or not full ? What’s the different between those two ?
thanks

wow, it tooks over 40MB only for sample data?

hii, i have older version of php i.e. 4.4.0 ...can i still use it some other way. ??

Hello Michael,

Thanks for guiding me.

Best Regards,

Tarun

For those getting file not found errors, an alternative to the rather loose “AllowOverride All” is to simply set the RewriteBase in the .htaccess.

The .htaccess is expecting your install to be the top level of your domain, not in a sub-folder. So if you have installed it in http://www.example.com/magento/, the .htaccess should contain:

RewriteBase /magento/

Without this, magento will be looking in /var/www/www.example.com/install/ instead of /var/www/www.example.com/magento/install/

Hi,

I’ve got this error :

Mysqli statement execute error : Incorrect arguments to mysql_stmt_execute

Any ideas ?

Here is the solution about the mysql error :
just download and install the new config.xml from http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/1903

I am using windows XP sp2- Wamp5 Version 1.7.2

Ok Boss.

Hi @all,
may be a stupid question....I have copied the magento files to shop.haass.net and made the rights as described in the installation guide. The php5 cgi is in a directory cgi-bin.
the .htaccess is as follows:

<IfModule mod_php5.c>
php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off
php_flag short_open_tag on
</IfModule>

Action php5-cgi /cgi-bin/php5-cgi
AddHandler /cgi-bin/php5-cgi .php

DirectoryIndex index.php

RewriteEngine on

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/media/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/skin/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/js/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l

RewriteRule .* index.php

I always get this output when I address shop.haass.net:
