Installation Failure before account page

Simon Jones Posted in Technical Support 8 years ago

I go to http://myurl/installation, it confirms all the pre-reqs.

It asks for the database details which I'm sure are correct, I hit install and it says:

Notice: A session had already been started - ignoring session_start() in /var/www/social/system/start.php on line 11

Apache error log says:

[Thu Nov 17 14:07:42 2016] [error] [client w.x.y.z] PHP Notice: A session had already been started - ignoring session_start() in /var/www/social/system/start.php on line 11, referer: http://

Any ideas? I'm very keen to review this product with the possibility of going PRO.

Thanks

Thank you very much "sudo apt-get install php5-mcrypt" did the trick.

Make sure you have installed mcrypt for php and enabled it.

Using version 4.2 downloaded this week. I've tried both on my own RPi and an Ubuntu virtual machine with the same effect. I control the OS and have root access.

PHP 5.4.45-0+deb7u5
MYSQLI ENABLED
APACHE ENABLED
MODREWRITE
PHP CURL
PHP GD LIBRARY
CONFIGURATION DIRECTORY WRITEABLE
PHP allow
url_fopen ENABLED
PHP ZipArchive ENABLED

The database tables are getting created. I chose /var/ossn as the data directory but nothing is getting written to this directory (is that normal at this stage of the installation). I have confirmed using my own php code that php can write to the /var/ossn directory so it doesn't appear to be a permissions issue.

I've spent a fair few hours on this and am keen to get it working.

The session can not be issue, please provide us more details which version you are using? what is php version, what is your server environments? And which hosting provider you are using?
