firebird continuous installation

I tried latest firebird setup at mojo.mydomain.com/setup/default.aspx and final result is:

Probing system...
File system permissions ok.
FirebirdSql database connection ok.
database permissions are sufficient to alter schema.
database initial schema already exists.
database core schema needs upgrade.
0 site(s) found.
Note: This page shows some information...

When i try to open site mojo.mydomain.com I get redirected to setup again mojo.mydomain.com/setup/default.aspx   (with equal output as above).

What is wrong???

Re: firebird continuous installation

Hi,

Are you sure that you have the App_Data and Data directories writable by the web process user?

HTH,

Re: firebird continuous installation

Sure. That's what installation says too ("File system permissions ok.").
Actually I don't have write permission but rather modify for IIS_WPG.

Could you tell me what is to be modified by installation so I can check?

Thank you!

PS:I retried installation (deleted site files, recreated new database) added permissions for network service (and iis_wpg) but still same results!!! File test.config gets written into Data folder so it seems it's not a permission issue...?

Re: firebird continuous installation

Hi,

Sorry for the confusion, this is really just a packaging error in our Firebird package, it is missing a file but the missing file would be just an empty file anyway, so you can solve by:

  1. create an empty text file named 2.3.5.5.config
  2. put it in the folder /Setup/applications/mojoportal-core/SchemaUpgradeScripts/firebird/
  3. visit the /Setup/Default.aspx page again, now it will record this version and say everything is up to date.

I will fix this and upload a corrected package for Firebird tomorrow, but all I will be doing is adding the empty text file mentioned above.

Best,

Joe

Re: firebird continuous installation

Thank you Joe! That did the trick! I'm a proud newbie mojo user!

BTW: Are there any differences between firebird version and others? Any functions, modules etc. missing or behave differently?

Thanky you!

Re: firebird continuous installation

It should work the same as any db platform, the only feature that is not implemented is the WebStore feature, so it is not available in Firebird installations, but other than that it should be the same. We don't have as many Firebird users as with other platforms so it is possible there are bugs that have not been reported. So if you do get any database errors please do report them.

Best,

Joe
