Glitch in PHP Installation?!

[Jgl5858]

Okay, so I am at the point where I am at the set up wizard. I am on page 3. Im filling out my info. I have ALL of my info typed in correctly. Every time I press "Continue Installation" it brings me to a page saying, "Something required was left blank. Please go back and try again."

Now I am very frustrated. I keep trying to go onto the next step, but it keeps saying I left something blank when there isn't anything LEFT BLANK! Is this a glitch? Can somebody help me? Thanks

umm do you have a screenshot for this? It sounds like a rather strange issue, I'd assume you either forgot to set permission CMD for the file config.php and the two image folders, or you may not have created a database in phpmyadmin prior to installation? Lemme know if there's anything I can help you.

Okay, I already CMD the 3 files I needed 2. How can I screenshot it? It has important info on it....
Also, I did create the database prior to installation :D[hr]
Here is a screeshot...

I even tried it on a different web host, like internet explorer! IT STILL DIDN'T WORK!!

Umm it seems that you have a problem with the script path? You aint supposed to enter '/public_html' here.

I left it blank, like Brandon said. It still didn't work. :(

If your using the webhost i think your using, i can tell you for sure that your sql host is not supposed to be localhost

(oh hey you sent me that picture in a PM X3)

Anyway I've since solved my problem and it may be the same problem which is what Panda was saying. So you'd need to input a new url for wherever your database is located.

In the very beginning I put in the correct info. Then it said I left something blank, so I changed it. Then I put the my site host's name. Still no go. I've practically tried everything....I have no idea what could be wrong...

[Jgl5858]

I even tried making a 2 domain and uploading EVERYTHING again, and still no go! I don't get why it works for other people....

umm can you possibly try to reupload your files? If it still doesnt work, check if you have an empty database file to use for your adoptable site. Also like pokemontrainergigi pointed out, your database host is not 'localhost', you will need to be careful with that.

[Jgl5858]

Okay. All files re-uploaded and I changed the host name to the correct one. NO GO! I think Im going to buy my own domain and try again? Do you think that would work?

I use 000webhost to, & i haven't any problems :s

1. Database Information
You're using 000webhost, so... once you've made a MySQL database, you will be redirected to a page with ALL your database details needed. You just need to place the details into the form. If you've forgotten the database details, just delete the old database and create a new one.

2. Domain Information
DOMAIN NAME: Copy and paste your domain (from the address bar) and remove the excess which includes the "http://www." and ".hostoi.com/install/index.php"

SCRIPT PATH: Delete everything inside the field, leave it blank.

DATABASE TABLE PREFIX: Input "adopt_" and you don't have to do anything else.

3. Continue Installation...

If you followed ALL the steps above... and it STILL won't work... then, please provide a screenshot with all the fields filled out, but remember to SCRIBBLE OUT THE IMPORTANT DETAILS. And then I would be able to check if you've accidently made a spelling mistake etc.

Hope you get it right!
