Install Problem... | August 25, 2007 @ 10:37pm | In step 3 of the install I get this message, even though it says I've successfully connected with the database:
You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=225' at line 1
Thanks for your help:) |

| August 26, 2007 @ 12:45am | Hi sammie926,
Sorry to hear you're having problems.
That looks like it's having a problem with the very first query in the MySQL portion of the install. It's a pretty straightforward query, which simply creates the cl-EventDates table.
What version of MySQL are you using? Have you had any problems like this installing other scripts? Are you currently using any other database driven scripts?

Database Successfully Connected! Running MySQL Version 4.0.27-standard

You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=225' at line 1
---- I searched google and found this: replace ENGINE=MyISAM with TYPE=MyISAM. Does this help? Not sure. |

| August 31, 2007 @ 10:37pm | Hi Welby,
The ENGINE=MyISAM/TYPE=MyISAM change might be necessary for your system, but without seeing it I don't know. In the one other instance of this problem that I have personally seen, it was due to the MySQL server not allowing the "default charset" portion of the queries.
The fix on your own is a little complicated, but can be done if you like. What you need to do is open the v2.5.sql file which was created by the installer, and remove all instances of "DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1". You will also need to remove all instances of "{DBPrefix}", and replace it with your database prefix if you need to use one. Then save the file and upload it back to your installation location. You will also need to remove write permissions from the file to prevent it from being replaced by the installer. Then re-run the installer, and you should be all set.
We are currently evaluating this situation and working to find a solution that works for all our clients. This has only presented itself as an issue on a very small number of installations to date that we are aware of.
If you are unable to make the changes outlined above, you can also email your FTP and Database information, along with your desired site settings (everything you entered into the installer) to , and we will do our best to get the installation completed for you.

I installed the program on another unix host that has MySQL 5.0.27 standard and the install was simple and perfect without any errors. I looked at the other host I was using and the version of MySQL is 4.0.27- standard which explains the SQL syntax error. welby |

| September 1, 2007 @ 3:06pm | Unless there was a bug in a specific release of MySQL in that 4.0.27 range, I think it's due more to configuration than a problem with MySQL. We've had many installs on 4.0.25-standard, and unknown hundreds on other random versions, without any problems.
