Baikal installation requires the SQLite drive for PHP

[lcorbasson]

This may be related to #82:
When installing Baikal v0.3.3, if the SQLite driver for PHP is not installed, the database configuration page in the installation process breaks with an error 500; here's the Apache error log message:

[Sat Feb 20 16:41:27.172802 2016] [:error] [pid 26459] [client 0.0.0.0:48562] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'PDOException' with message 'SQLSTATE[28000] [1045] Access denied for user 'user'@'localhost' (using password: NO)' in /srv/webapps/baikal/Core/Frameworks/Flake/Core/Database/Mysql.php:50\nStack trace:\n#0 /srv/webapps/baikal/Core/Frameworks/Flake/Core/Database/Mysql.php(50): PDO->__construct('mysql:host=;dbn...', '', '')\n#1 /srv/webapps/baikal/Core/Frameworks/Flake/Framework.php(282): Flake\\Core\\Database\\Mysql->__construct('', '', '', '')\n#2 /srv/webapps/baikal/Core/Frameworks/Flake/Framework.php(229): Flake\\Framework::initDbMysql()\n#3 /srv/webapps/baikal/Core/Frameworks/Flake/Framework.php(223): Flake\\Framework::initDb()\n#4 /srv/webapps/baikal/Core/Frameworks/BaikalAdmin/WWWRoot/install/index.php(50): Flake\\Framework::bootstrap()\n#5 {main}\n thrown in /srv/webapps/baikal/Core/Frameworks/Flake/Core/Database/Mysql.php on line 50, referer: https://example.org/admin/install/

I just released 0.3.4, solving a problem with installation. Could you give that a shot and report back?

nginx, php7, clean install, 0.3.4

the Specific Folder in 0.3.4.zip is empty (except enable-install) . I think that could be the problem.

[evert]

@perlbo , no it is actually expected that it's empty now. The file inside this folder should be created by the installer.

@perfect7gentleman the error message you provide does indicate an error, but for me I'm getting something that looks a bit like this:

But that red-box error message is currently expected, and something I want to fix in the future. That error message does not prevent you from continuing setup... but I guess you are getting the error message in a different way?

So at what point are you actually getting that error? Is it after having setup mysql, or immediately after clicking the 'Use MySQL' checkbox?

[perfect7gentleman]

@evert, I upgraded 0.2.7 to 0.3.4. Now it's okay.
I didn't try clean install anymore.

[evert]

alright =)

I got this after the initialization wizard:

The FOLDER containing the DB file is not writable, and it has to.
Please give write permissions on folder '/volume1/web/baikal/Specific/db'

Workaround is to create an empty db folder first.

[evert]

Ah weird, there was no db folder already? Fairly sure I included an empty one in the zip.

[ghost]

ah funny ... just wanted to confirm that i have the same Problem.
The trick with the emtpy db folder is working for me too :)

[evert]

Super weird. What platform / unzip program did you guys use?

[ghost]

debian 8 + unzip

[evert]

thanks, I'll think I'll just drop a little hidden file in that directory to make sure it gets retained.

[ErikBasalt]

Windows7 + windows explorer or 7zip.
In 0.3.4 release, I only see Specific/ENABLE_INSTALL, no db.

[evert]

I just had a look, and when I look at the zip I don't see the db folder either. Oddly enough, rebuilding the zip does include it. I'm thinking there might be a difference during zipping, as I use both OS X and linux on a regular basis.

Anyway, it will be included in the next release.

[ErikBasalt]

Thanks ;-)

[evert]

Just released 0.3.5, fixing this. If your installation is working now you don't need to upgrade though.

[ErikBasalt]

0.3.5 fixed it indeed.
Thanks once again.
