Will Powweb Support This?

[jmil]

I currently have a Joomla based Site hosted here on Powweb - I want to add the SOBI2 extension but when I try to install it - I get a 500 internal server error. And I did increase my PHP.INI to max (32 Megs)

Here are the Requirements for the Extension

* Joomla! 1.0.12+, Joomla 1.5.3+ or Mambo 4.6.2+, MiaCMS 4.6.5 YES
* PHP4(>4.4.x) or PHP 5 YES I HAVE
* MySQL 4 or MySQL 5 YES I HAVE
* Apache Webserver ???????????
* Safe Mode OFF Done
* GD library installed ???????? But I am pretty sure YES
* ECMA standard encoding (ISO/IEC 8859 and UTF-8) YES
* For Non-UTF-8 sites with special characters: Iconv library or mbstring module installed
* Java Script activated YES

I understand we are Not Apache Based would that be my issue??

I have an older version of SOBI2 (RC 2.8.6) running here without any problems. I just ran the system check that comes with SOBI2 and recevied the following:
PHP Version: 4.4.7 May cause problems
MySQL Version: 5.0.45 Perfect
PHP Memory Limit: 32 MB OK
PHP Script Execution Time: 600 Seconds Perfect
PHP Safe Mode: disabled OK
PHP Register Globals: disabled Perfect
CMS RG Emulation: disabled Perfect
GD Library: installed OK
iconv/mbstring Library: installed OK
Charset: iso-8859-1 OK
Database Collation: latin1_swedish_ci OK
CMS: Joomla 1.0.12 OK
Admin Template: joomla_admin OK
Default Template Check: aix_refresher OK

Have you been able to install other components?

[jmil]

Yes - I have Multiple Mods and Plugins working with no issue.

But I am using Joomla 1.5.8 for this site (My others are Legacy)

I have been working with the sigsiu team but they can't seer to figure it out either. I really want this extension too as it is the only one that meets my needs and I like Joomla!

BTW _ i did increase my php limit to 32 so that is not the issue either

Is it just the install that seems to be the problem?

There is a time limit at PowWeb for how long a script can run. I wonder if the load is taking too long.

[jmil]

Yes it is set for 60 secs but the Soba guys feel that is OK!
YOU are right it is simply an install issue - Something is stopping the script from running - I do not have a single table created from multiple attempts! and different Zips (just to be sure)

Where you from MI?

I am in Mid-Michigan.

What verision of PHP are you running? Have you tried changing PHP versions to see if that makes a difference? I was playing with Joomla 1.5 on a site and found I had issues when installing components if I used PHP 5.

[jmil]

PHP4 I did try 5 but then my site would not even load - restoring to PHP4 corrected that

Have you looked at the CGI error logs in ops?
