Hello,

Quickstart package installation for Joomla 3 doesn’t work

The installation freezes at Creating database tables ( on Firefox and IE)

I tried all tips ( link below) but nothing works :

Thank you

Dear Melvine Mel,

I installed the quickstart package in localhost, I only set 'display_errors=Off' in PHP.ini file, it worked for me.

If it persist, please try :

Tip 1: Turn off "display errors"

In php.ini, find line "display_errors=On" replace with "display_errors=Off"

Tip 2: Increase execution time in php.ini

Find line "max_execution_time=30" change to "max_execution_time=3000"

Tip 3: Increase memory limit

Increase "memory_limit=128M" to "memory_limit=256M"

Tip4: Find the term "ENGINE=InnoDB" and replace ALL with "ENGINE=MyIsam". It can be changed in /installation/sql/mysql/joomla.sql and in /installation/sql/mysql/sample_data.sql

Thanks

But where is the php.ini file located??? in quickstart folder is not...

Why so many preparations for one template install? some month ago we do not have this problems

Go to the file: /installation/index.php and find:
define('_JEXEC', 1);
=> Edit to:
define('_JEXEC', 1);
ini_set ('display_errors', 'Off');
