Problem in installing DekiWiki to Windows

[woogie]

Hello.

I'm having a problem with installing Dekiwiki to Windows. Installation has been succesfull, but when prompted for a password I can't get logged in.
When entering:
User: Sysop
Pass: <my password>
It just keeps asking password three times and then stops.

This is probably caused because of XAMPP and it doesn't have root password for MySQL database. To get rid of this problem I modified install.php where passwords are checked:

From this:
if( isset( $options['help'] ) || !isset( $options['dbPwd'] ) || !isset( $options['dbRootPwd'] ) || !isset( $options['site'] ) ) {

To this:
if( isset( $options['help'] ) || !isset( $options['dbPwd'] ) || !isset( $options['site'] ) ) {

And in installation command I used following:
php.exe install.php --site Deki --dbPwd <password> --sysOpPwd <password> --supportPwd <password>

Is there any way to go around this password checking? I have browsed trough code but haven't found any solution.

Hi Woogie,

Welcome to the forums!

Did you try installing DekiWiki "Hayes"? Beta two was just released and we would love to hear about any and all issues relating to installing it on Windows. The feedback would be greatly appreciated and will be incorporate it into the final release. Thanks!

i have the same problem like yours, but for me i didn't change anything with install.php. so I don't think it is a problem with xampp because I didn't use that. I just follow the install guide. but still have the problem with user sysop and password.


Is there any one can solve this problem??thanks in advance.
