no MySQL databases are being created (36 Replies, Read 22093 times)

Group: NOC Post Group: Working Member Posts: 113 Status:	Hi, This looks like a very promising script,and I have installed it on 3 servers so far, but I can't get it to work properly. When I login as the root user (who happens to have a live website & account), I can't install any scripts, cause the MySQL Databases never get created. From the email that I receive, it seems like the database should be created, but when I visit the installed script, I get MySQL connection errors. And I can confirm in the cPanel that the relevant MySQL database(s) doesn't exist, nor the MySQL users. How do I fix this?

Also the index.raw-files don't have read nor write or execute permissions after installation on our box. I had to chmod them before I could access softaculous in the controlpanel .

Group: Member Post Group: Newbie Posts: 42 Status:	My feeling is that it is actually the php config. In the generic php.ini is at disable_functions probably shell_exec. Softaculous uses before 2.0 this command to import the tables in the database. This is causing the issue. Either you can remove shell_exec from the disallowed functions or wait until 2.0 (which Alons has stated that will use a different method of importing).

Group: Member Post Group: Newbie Posts: 4 Status:	I have the same problem with Softaculous not populating the databases. It's the latest DirectAdmin, installed 3 days ago, Softaculous installed few hours ago.Database is created, but it's empty. I've tested few scripts, and only WordPress is working, as it installed itself after the automatic pre-installation by Softaculous. Everything else just shows the same error - can not read from (or in some cases, write to) tables.

Group: Member Post Group: Newbie Posts: 4 Status:	The thing is, I haven't disabled exec nor shell_exec. I looked in both php.ini files (Zend at /usr/local/Zend/etc/ and, to be absolutely sure, the standard php.ini at /usr/local/lib/). Both these files are the same, and in both these functions aren't disabled. Yet the databases aren't populated with tables and data by the Softaculous.For a moment I thought it might be the suhosin extension plugin that is blocking the process, but no - after I've disabled it (and yes, I've completely disabled suhosin and restarted Apache, even checked phpinfo to make sure it's not running) the Softaculous still couldn't paste the data into the database.

But I noticed when a script is installed in the root folder (public_html) and the script is removed through Softaculous the public_html folder is also deleted so everything else on the web space is also gone which of course is not preferable. Is there a way to prevent this?
