When trying to install under a 1and1 environment not even the first screen is displayed.

Note all the required components are available.

What can we learn from this? How do we fix it?

GabrielGil commented 10 years ago

Actually I just faced the problem. It was one stupid thing, but as you can see it was braking the whole installation.

The roadmap I was using to install October was:

wget github.com/master.zip
unzip master.zip

And then try to access to the installer. However, and still don't know why, somehow the 1&1 unzip utility extracts the Installer classes with the filename in lowercase which causes php is in a state like "found and not found" at the same time, since it is not throwing any error nor loading the files.

Anyway, to fix the problem just make sure the required files in boot.php are the same as the uncompressed ones in php folder.

Probably is something related with the unzip 1and1 since, unzip works great in Mac 10.10...

Have you find a tip on 1 & 1, the problem was unzip to update the new version of the CMS

Thanks

Yes, just remember to unzip the installer files on your computer before since somehow the 1and1 unzip utility lowercases all the filenames.
