QuickStart installation on my server keeps failing at step 3

I don't really get an error message, or an error in the error log, I just See this screen of step 3 that looks fine:

Then, as I hit install I get the normal install page with the bars filling up:

And then out of nowhere I get a new overlaying bar like that:

image2.jpg

And then taken back to the step 3 page.

I've tried making some of the mysql limits a bit higher like connect_timeout from 10 to 1000 and wait_timeout from 20 to 2000 but to no avail. I turned those back again of course.

In my php configuration I have the following options:
asp_tags Off
enable_dl Off
file_uploads On
include_path .:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php
max_execution_time 120
max_input_time 120
max_input_vars 1000
memory_limit 196M
session.save_path /tmp
upload_max_filesize 100M

Could you help me out with that issue? Thank you.

Hello,

Please try to replace in file installation/sql/mysql/joomla.sql all occurences of:

Code: Select all

utf8mb4

to:

Code: Select all

utf8

then empty your database which you are using for this installation and try to install the quickstart again.

Don't both code blocks contain utf8mb4? Am I missing something?

I am sorry - my mistake - I've edited my post - you should change "utf8mb4" to just "utf8"

I got the same problem here, after change to utf8.
I got another error:

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 '1641,'these changes it','these changes it',0,1,1.5333,'T2523',31,''),(21642,'tim' at line 5 SQL=INSERT INTO `#__finder_terms` (`term_id`, `term`, `stem`, `common`, `phrase`, `weight`, `soundex`, `links`, `language`) VALUES (15950,'never baulked at','never baulked at',0,1,1.5333,'N161423',9,''),(15951,'oscar','oscar',0,0,0.3333,'O260',17,''),


Please help

That's strange - I do not see any error there - are you using the Storefront quickstart too?

Hello.
I'm using Quark e-commerce quickstart.
And have all the same (in the beginning the first, after correction - the second) mistakes.
please help.

Guys you need to go to server configuration and disable the display of errors.
That causes most joomla quickstarts to fail in that way. It's not only gavick packages. Most packages create that problem with error report on from the server side.
