Database error before install

[Shamil.]

More than one person's going to wind up in it - so let's identify this once and for all.

Error spouted out:

Fatal error: Uncaught
Database error in vBulletin :


Invalid SQL:
SELECT * FROM setting;

Settings in config.php (/)

$config['baseurl'] = 'http://localhost:10088/connect';

$config['baseurl_core'] = 'http://localhost:10088/connect/core';

$config['core_path'] = '/usr/local/zend/apache2/htdocs/connect/core'; 

Let's assume that the details in core/includes/config.php are correct:

$config['Database']['dbname'] = 'vbulletin';

$config['MasterServer']['username'] = 'root';
$config['MasterServer']['password'] = '';

What exactly would be causing this?

Call /install/install.php directly instead of /install/, it's a known bug.

Many thanks Yves.

That is one thing I have never tried, installing directly with the index.php file.

All my vB5.0 installs/upgrades I either use www.mydomain.com/core/install/install.php or for upgrading www.mydomain.com/core/install/upgrade.php

So, I have never seen this error. Ok.. bug!
