Significant changes to the installer, so check out new installs and various upgrades and let me know if it’s working properly for you. You can now choose to edit the database connection properties using the new upgrade option, and it should force you to edit them if upgrading from a version without the database_connection_charset var that was added to the config.inc.php file. It should also handle upgrades from 0.9.5 config files in their original location (manager/includes/).

Hi OpenGeek,

I’ve tried to install this release but I’m encoutering the following error:

Fatal error: Uncaught exception ’PDOException’ with message ’could not find driver’ in /home.10.2/dixsix/www/alpha/core/xpdo/xpdo.class.php:293

Hosting environment:

PHP 5.1.5
==> PDO support / enabled
PDO drivers sqlite2

Mysql 5

:-)

Won’t work on that server, period.

Find a host that knows how to configure PHP 5.1+ or can run PHP 4.3.x or 4.4.x. This is all too common and hosts need to figure out how to configure the version of PHP they decide to install, or get out of the business.

(Don’t you love my pre-coffee posts)

ADDED: The drivers for MySQL are super-easy to enable, so tell them they need to get the proper drivers enabled for PDO or remove PDO completely from their configuration.

Good morning sunshine!

I’ve switched to php 4 and now the alpha run smoothly

Are nested tag recognized ?

I’ve tried with [[ditto? &startID=`[[UltimateParent]]` &summarize=`all` ]]

The snippet call is displayed on screen and is truncated

&summarize=`all` ]] appears in stead of the snippet output.

That should have been handled with these latest updates...can you show me what other tags are in the same content?

Alternate snippet call styles:

The 097 core should handle infinitely (essentially anyway) nested calls of either type though. I think. Right?

Right, it should; I’ll look into this as soon as possible again. I was making a lot of adjustments to this over the past two weeks, so I may have missed something. It may be that the conversion of content during upgrade is the best solution to solve this...more soon.

Jason ,

that’s the only snippet call in the page (template set to blank)
