The setup only gets to the point where it created the directories and then fails with that:
Warning: mkdir() [function.mkdir.html]: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 500 is not allowed to access /home/httpd/html/data owned by uid 48 in /home/httpd/html/setup/install.php on line 368
Obviously it wasn't able to make a copy from itself which is why it has to fail. Write permissions were granted, however.
Server: Apache 2.0.48 with PHP 4.3.4 running as module

Open_basedir restriction: /home/httpd/
MySQL Extension: enabled
PostgreSQL Extension: disabled
PCRE Extension: enabled
Zlib Extension: enabled
Pspell Extension: enabled
Tokenizer Extension: enabled
PDF Extension: disabled
|
That's what the setup initially found. Any idea how to get it running despite safe mode?

Maybe I should mention how I planned to install it:
data dir: /home/httpd/html/data
forum dir: /home/httpd/html/forum
URL: http://www.serveur.fr/forum/
In order to install the forum I created:
/home/httpd/html/setup/
and made it writable for the server, as well as the "html" dir itself

I am afraid that your setup is not going to work due to safe_mode as is.
The recommended procedure is this:
create directory /home/httpd/html/forum
put installer there... make sure directory is 777
when it asks for paths enter /home/httpd/html/forum/forum
it should work.
Once the forum is installed, unlock forum's files.
rename /home/httpd/html/forum/ to /home/httpd/html/foobar
rename /home/httpd/html/foobar/forum to /home/httpd/html/forum/
then modify GLOBALS.php, login to admin control panel rebuild the theme.

If I stick to the documentation it does say that install.php should not be in the directory where the forum will be installed to:
| README: |
Otherwise, if you safe_mode is enabled, place the upgrade script in a directory that IS NOT
the directory where you intend to install the forum.
|
I strictly followed the suggested instruction which is apparently wrong. I think it would be better to include the description you gave in your reply to me. Additionally It may be wiser to include a check which has the installer refuse to continue unless the paths are the way you described it.
Regarding my setup, I'm root on this machine so I simply turned off safe mode which solved the problem for me.
