[resolved] Can't save System Settings, or install package management

Hi,

Apologies if this has already been answered; I have searched this forum but not found anything similar.

I am installing Revolution 2.0.1-pl (traditional distribution) on a shared host. I have it working fine locally, but am having issues as I set up on the server. My first issue was that I want to set up the site before I point the domain name. I have done this by editing the hosts file on my local machine as described here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa;jsessionid=785E2E0391CCFE81C205473FC5FCA8DA.node0?messageID=11249384&#11249384

This enabled me to access the setup folder with no issues. I set up a database through the control panel from my host. I had an issue that I figured out was due to the fact that they don’t use local host - they use mysql1.openhost.net.nz

Once I changed that, things worked fine, and I was able to continue with the install.

I am having two problems right now:

1. I cannot edit anything in the System Settings. The field is simply not editable for me, so I cannot type in to make any changes (specifically site_name)

2. I cannot install any packages. I have been able to browse for them, and download them. Now I can access Package Management and see the 4 items that I have downloaded, and when I click install, I get the following issues:

License Agreement and Readme do not show up, but I can click next. When I click finish, I get the following:
Error: Could not install package with signature: wayfinder-2.1.1-rc1

Console running...
Package found...now preparing to install.

Thanks for any help you can give me!


Local:
PHP Version 5.2.11
MAMP
Mac srunning Snow Leopard

Host:
PHP Version 5.2.0-8+etch16

To edit a system setting, double-click on its value field.

Also, your ZipArchive extension is faulty. Change the System Setting ’archive_with’ to 1, or Yes. That will fix package management for you.

thank you! package management is all fixed and the install/setup is now all going well
