Downloading Revolution via SVN

PDO is not required and there is a workaround for the problem situation where you have PHP 5.1+ but do not have the PDO_mysql driver available (which is why it is failing here). But you must force xPDO to use an emulated version of PDO (included in xPDO) by setting a constant in each of your index.php entry points (i.e. /index.php, /manager/index.php, /connectors/index.php). Here is the code you’ll uncomment and copy to each one; it’s included in the index.php.

I’m looking for a way to detect and automate setting this mode.

That said, everyone with PHP 5.1 and MySQL in the same environment should absolutely have the mysql PDO driver in their configuration, or request that it be added.

I cannot connect to ’http://svn.modxcms.com/svn/tattoo/tattoo/branches/0.9.7’ , I’m using svnX on Macos 10.4:

error message:

svn: ’http://svn.modxcms.com/svn/tattoo/tattoo/branches/’ is not a working copy.
svn:’http://svn.modxcms.com/svn/tattoo/tattoo/branches/.svn/entries’ No such file or directory

Your URL is correct but are you trying to checkout or export you cannot use import (which means to import to a repo) or update (which updates a working copy)? Or are you just trying to browse the repo?

I get the error message by adding the url to the svnX ’repositories’ window and clicking on it (before even getting to click the export button);
same thing happens in the ’Working copies’ window.

Trying to access just the general http://svn.modxcms.com also fails.

No idea then. I am on WinXP using Tortoise and it works fine. I have also used the command line svn on Windows no problem. Must be a Mac or svnX issue.

I recommend using SmartSVN for mac. Way better than svnX.

<?php
//[OPTIONAL]: for forcing emulated PDO when required native PDO drivers are not available
define('XPDO_MODE', 2);
?>

Very useful information.

I have, as you instructed, un commented this now in all 3 index files, however I still receive a completely blank setup page. Something I suppose is telling me this is not meant to be lolol.

same problem with smartSVN; might be some proxy/Lan issue; I’ll try from outside

This page no longer available?

I wanted to reinstall the svn.0.9.7 but forgot the steps, last time I got it working by reading the above page.
Thanks!

It’s been moved, you can find it here now: http://svn.modxcms.com/docs/display/MODx097/Development+and+Testing+Notes

(The answer was actually hidden a page or two back in this thread ;-))
