OP
I found a response in an earlier post. It says I need to create the newman MySQL database. Don´t we have the option of naming the database anything else? My hosting company gives me a database with a set name, so I can not change it...

/quote/ create the newman MySQL database /quote// <br /> <br />Yes, but where the name is: newman (installation screen) <br />you have to fill in your own db_name <br /> <br /> :fighter

Hello, <br /> <br />I have the same problem and I filled the correct db_name but it still refreshes and nothing happens. <br /> <br />Earlier I installed newman without any problem on another server. <br /> <br />Can someone take a look at the install page Click :http://thismonthmagazine.com/news/newman/install.php

localhost: replace it by the name you have got of your host <br /> Username: the correct name you have got of your host <br /> Password: the correct password you have got of your host <br /> Database Name:: the correct Database Name you have got of your host <br /> <br />And: <br />1.) phpNewsManager should be installed before you can install phpWebMagazine !!! <br />2.) EDIT THIS: <br />in newman_lib.php line 6 <br />$admin_email = &quot;info@klevze.si&quot;; <br />require (&quot;../newman/db.inc.php&quot;); <br /> <br />where db.inc.php should be path to existing phpNewsManager installation. <br /> <br />3.) You can edit header.php, index.php, footer.php and customize layout as you wish <br /> <br />See: http://members.lycos.nl/vazed/webmagazine/index.php?action=show&amp;type=story&amp;id=3 <br /> <br />:cool:

Hi Peter thanks for replying. <br /> <br />I did all these: <br /> <br />localhost replace it by the name you have got of your host <br />Username: the correct name you have got of your host <br />Password: the correct password you have got of your host <br />Database Name:: the correct Database Name you have got of your host <br /> <br />And it still didn&acute;t help. <br /> <br />you can try to add anything and click submit and see if the problem is from me, the link is http://thismonthmagazine.com/WebMagazine/newman/install.php <br /> <br />Thanks

What is wrong.......? <br />Good question. <br /> <br />The script? The host? The input name? <br /> <br />To find out: <br />get a free account at Lycos with php support. <br />Now upload the script. <br />If it does not install there is something with the script. <br />Attention: <br /> lycos does not need a password to fill in, at least the: &quot; lycos.nl&quot; not. <br /> <br />The script i have uploaded to lycos a few times (different accounts): <br />install runs fine everytime. <br /> <br />:car

You have problem with REGISTER_GLOBALS. <br />This variable need to be set to ON. If don&acute;t install.php script won&acute;t work. <br /> <br />Regards.

Try putting .htaccess file in your root directory with this line in it: <br />php_flag register_globals on <br /> <br />Regards
