BizDirectory set up on Windows Server 2003 problems

Hi,

We are trying to get BizDirectory setup on a Windows Server 2003,

We get all the way to install_3.php and get the error :

'You have not typed the directory name:'

even though we have,

have a look at :
http://www.cashbackers.co.uk/directory/install.php

and you will see what I mean,

the php info file to show what sort of setup is :

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris

 

Edit your config.php

$mysql_hostname = "yoursqlhostname";
$mysql_user = "sqluser";
$mysql_password = "sqlpassword";
$mysql_database = "sqldatabase;
$prefix = "dir_";

PHP:

Why using the biz-script? I liked it for a very long time but there are other options available. Check this thread for more web directory scripts. http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=55170

 

thanks for the tip have installed this and it is indeed much better and far easier to use.

Just one problem- I cant get the mod rewrite to work on the directory URLs. I think this is because the server is on ISS6. anyone know a way around this?

cheers

 

I'm not sure, but I believe mod_rewrite is not possible on a windows server, it's an linux/apache thing..
Look for ISAPI Rewrite module for windows server.

 

is phplinkdirectory compatable for windows server?

 

thanks Whatifind

you are a gentleman!
