Server Install Failure

Asked by Samuel Grant

During the server install, the installation seems to hang quite randomly. Sometimes it hangs while on the 1.sql import, sometimes it's on the 4.sql import, a couple of times it was on the 7.sql import, once on the 10.sql import.

In short, the install hangs while importing the SQL. How do I get around this?

WinXP Pro, SP3.

EDIT==================

And, YES, I did follow the instructions for the XAMPP install, without errors.

The only think I can think of is that the max_execution_time is being reached... we do try and set this to unlimited, but perhaps your install is preventing it.

You could try and set this manually in your php.ini file and see if that makes a difference.

The default max_execution_time is 30 seconds, I set it to 5 minutes, rebooted and POOF! it works.

Thanks again!

Thank you so much! This fixed my problem too. I would highly suggest adding this info to either the server install guide or the release notes for Faye.

You guys rock! Thanks again!

Created a FAQ from this article - you are right though, it would be better in the Server Install Guide.... when I get a minute :-)
