- Description
When running the installer on IIS the incorrect root path is detected. The directory tikiwiki is installed into is being stripped from the directory hierarchy.
The problem including the solution is referenced in the forum thread at http://tikiwiki.org/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?forumId=6&comments_parentId=26943&highlight=directory%20does%20not%20exist
- Solution
- I attempted a fix for this in Tiki 5 (r26029) based on advice from Wade Hildo. Please report if you experience this issue with Tiki 5 or later.
- Workaround
Change lib/setup/tikisetup.class.php from:
if (strpos($_SERVER"SERVER_SOFTWARE","IIS")==TRUE){
if (array_key_exists('PATH_TRANSLATED', $_SERVER)) {
$docroot = dirname($_SERVER'PATH_TRANSLATED');
print $_SERVER'PATH_TRANSLATED';
print dirname($_SERVER'PATH_TRANSLATED');
} else {
$docroot = getcwd();
}
}
else{
$docroot = getcwd();
}
toif (strpos($_SERVER"SERVER_SOFTWARE","IIS")==TRUE){
if (array_key_exists('PATH_TRANSLATED', $_SERVER)) {
$docroot = getcwd();
print $_SERVER'PATH_TRANSLATED';
print dirname($_SERVER'PATH_TRANSLATED');
} else {
$docroot = getcwd();
}
}
else{
$docroot = getcwd();
