Installation of Vbulletin fails at step 6

[20veetee]

Hi,
I have:
Windows 2003 SP2
IIS 6
PHP 5.2.5
MySql 5.1.22
Vbulletin 3.6.8

The vb_test.php shows no problems, all tests pass. Installation starts good, untill step 6 comes up:

Step 6) Importing Language

Importing vbulletin-language.xml

Master Language
Please Wait

PHP has encountered an Access Violation at 02552BEB

Any Idea what I'm doing wrong? I checked the iusr rights for the the file and it can read the file/directory. Have database type set to mysqli. Database and client charset match...

Best Regards,

Martijn

I've replaced IIS by Apache 2.2, however still no "party".

At step 6 I see the page loading, and then I get a "Page cannot be displayed"

Sounds like a server issue. Enable phpinfo in the Admin CP, then provide the URL to your forums. This may help us troubleshoot this problem.

Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> Server Settings and Optimization Options -> Public phpinfo() Display Enabled

Hi Steve,
the forum has not yet installed... So I cannot enable the phpinfo through the menu ;)

However this url should show the phpinfo
http://82.170.23.199/index.php

First, reupload the original install/*.xml files. Make sure you upload these in ASCII format and overwrite the ones on the server.

Then edit your includes/config.php file and add this line right under the <?php line:

ini_set("max_execution_time", "480");

If you still have this problem after that, then it's a server issue but I cannot pinpoint the cause. It looks like your server is not correctly setup for xml. You might want to try the Server Configuration forum for help with this.

Steve,
thanks, tried your suggestion. However didn't help ;-)

I have RDP to the server, so I just copied the files to the server (no ftp issues with asci etc).
