Toner inventory Database

Nope, shouldn't need that mcrypt for printmaster. Even though those permissions are on wwwroot; please check that the IIS user has write permissions (specifically, to be able to create files) on the session folder itself. That's the only issue that the error messages relate to, so is all I can think it is.

Ok it seems iis user is the wrong user to set

I tried Authenticated user, was just gussing and that seems to work


Ok next question how to we get a security logon for this?
Want to try and get the new web server a bit more secure, last time our iss root folder had full rights for everyone

PrintMaster doesn't come with any security built-in. Use the functionality included with your web server (IP restrictions, Directory security - IIS: Authentication settings, Apache: htaccess/htpasswd etc) - but this is beyond the scope of what I can help with :)

Still no joy webman. I'm pretty sure I have followed instructions as stated. I get the index of still when i navigate to local host. then the webpage cannot be found when i navigate to localhost/printmaster.

Did you extract the downloaded zip file to a folder called 'printmaster'?

The zip file I extracted to c:\program files\apache group\apache2\htdocs, created an empty folder in htdocs with the name session. Imported printmaster.sql into heidisql, changed init.php to match database name and username password etc.

When you go to http://localhost/index.php, you should see the PrintMaster interface.

nope. getting a file download window :s sorry to be a pain!

In that case, PHP is not installed correctly.

Others: Re: costs. At the moment, I'm not looking at developing the costs feature due to higher priorities (private work, Classroombookings). I agree it would be a good feature to have, and probably one day I'll do it; just not right now :)

Thanks for the reply ;)

Best way to see if php is working mate

open notepad and type this in...... phpinfo()

and save the file has phpinfo.php

copy or save that in you webserver folder route

and go to Internet Explorer and type in localhost/phpinfo.php

If thats does not display a page of information php is not working correctlly

Best bet is to install php via the Microsoft Web Platform if your using a Windows Server, always seems to work doing it that way

Might want to check everyone has permissions to the directory as well.

i dont use phpmyadmin, i do it all on the CLI.. but Im not sure how to import the .sql file into the new database I created...

Can anyone tell me how its done please?

Replace printmasteruser and printmasterdb with your own details, and obviously the path to the file as well.

Code:

---

mysql -u printmasteruser -p printmasterdb < /path/to/printmaster.sql

---

Enter printmasteruser's password when prompted :)

Thanks.. I thikn I might have messed up something else coz im getting

Code:

---

ERROR 1044 (42000): Access denied for user 'printers'@'localhost' to database 'printers'

---

After I created the user and the database i did this:

Code:

---

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON printers TO 'printers'@'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION;

---

Is there something else I need to do?
