Nick Woods	Thursday 22 January 2004 5:03:15 am along with several others I've had problems with the error "ERROR: kernel (50) No database connection could be made, the system might not behave properly" after an install. This applies to Linux BTW I found that the installer didnt create the site setup files properly so I did some experimenting I eventually found that going to the root of the ez directory and typing this chown -R apache.apache * fixed it. I guess because if apache doesnt own the directories it cant create the files needed by Exponential Any comments ?

after an install.

I eventually found that going to the root of the ez directory and typing this

chown -R apache.apache *

fixed it. I guess because if apache doesnt own the directories it cant create the files needed by Exponential

Any comments ?

You should give apache the proper rights ... yes

bla... about document root

User bjoern
