Moodle Problems

[Mintsoft]

hey all. I wasn't sure what section to put this in, but i figured what with it being PHP and all that this would be the best place.

I've just installed it onto our Win2K3 Server running IIS6. But when you go on the actual pages you get faced with:

Warning: include(G:\Inetpub\WWWroot\moodle/theme/standardwhite/config.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in G:\Inetpub\WWWroot\moodle\lib\weblib.php on line 2193

Is there something blatently obvious I'm missing from the PHP setup or something?

Thanks

Have you entered some kind of path wrong some where?

Warning: include(G:\Inetpub\WWWroot\moodle/theme/standardwhite/header.html)

The path starts with back slashes and ends with forward slashes.

Yeah moodle seems to of "chosen" to do that, I've tried changing the first part in config.php so that it uses '/' but then it says I have an error in my Config.php and to change '/' to '\'

What did you use to install php on your 2k3 server?

I used http://www.easyphp.org/ and had no problems with the installation.

Just the standard MSI from php.net and then chucked on the extension dll's it needed.

I would suggest trying the easyphp setup.

Aye, I'll keep it as an option. Surely there must be just something set wrong somewhere in php.ini or the like?

You have blank lines at the end of your config.php

I have a feeling the PHP only has the bare minimum required to get going when you install it via the MSI. If you download the ZIP (which is eight times the size) and configure it manually you might have more success.

FYI I'm running an experimental Moodle on IIS6 and PHP 4 with no problems.

I've just checked and it is EXACTLY like:

<?php  /// Moodle Configuration File 

unset($CFG);

$CFG->dbtype    = 'mysql';
$CFG->dbhost    = 'localhost';
$CFG->dbname    = 'moodle';
$CFG->dbuser    = 'moodleuser';
$CFG->dbpass    = 'testpass';
$CFG->dbpersist =  false;
$CFG->prefix    = 'mdl_';

$CFG->wwwroot   = 'http://localhost:8000/moodle';
$CFG->dirroot   = 'G:\Inetpub\WWWroot\moodle';
$CFG->dataroot  = 'G:\MoodleData';
$CFG->admin     = 'admin';

$CFG->directorypermissions = 00777;  // try 02777 on a server in Safe Mode

require_once("$CFG->dirroot/lib/setup.php");
// MAKE SURE WHEN YOU EDIT THIS FILE THAT THERE ARE NO SPACES, BLANK LINES,
// RETURNS, OR ANYTHING ELSE AFTER THE TWO CHARACTERS ON THE NEXT LINE.
?>

with no extra spaces etc

Aye that it does, I extracted the required extensions (gd.dll and mysql.dll) after I installed the MSI. Could it have anything to do with running PHP 5.1.2 rather than PHP 4?

-Thanks for all the responses
