Installation Readme - Database Name Duplicated

Installation package omcollab1.00.02.zip, within the Readme.txt for installing omCollab, under the section WHAT TO DO, step 2 appears to have a duplicate database name (italics mine):

2. Three MySql databases (one each for MediaWiki, WordPress and omBookmarks) ( ***** SET THIS UP FIRST ***** ) E.g. omcollab_wiki, omcollab_blogs and omcollab_blogs

I suspect that what is intended is a third unique database name for the bookmarks, so I used omcollab_bmark for the bookmarks. All is good. --Wlundin3 18:41, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

--Sean.mcclowry 13:29, 22 August 2008 (UTC) You are right on that! Sorry about that, its a typo in the readme file - should say omcollab_bookmarks - thanks for the catch!

Wiki Memory Usage

During my first run received the following error: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 16777216 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 6144 bytes) in xxxx\htdocs\omcollab\wiki\includes\CoreParserFunctions.php on line 138

Opened the file xxxx\apache\bin\php.ini and changed the memory limit from 16mb (default for xampplite) to 20, 24, then finally 32, before I could avoid error. Anyone else have this issue or an alternative fix?

memory_limit = 32M --Wlundin3 18:41, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

--Sean.mcclowry 13:56, 22 August 2008 (UTC) Hi Wlundin3, yes, Andi and I have seen the same error and did the same thing. Sorry, we should have documented it!

Wordpress problem

Hi, I just installed omCollab (1.00.04) to test the functionality. I have a problem with the Blog-application. After installing the Readme-file suggests a manual switch on of the single sign on function. At this point I get stuck, since Wordpress doesn't allow me into the admin pages. It seems as though the single sign-on works, I get logged in to all the applications, but the Blog does not work. I can comment stuff, but can't post new posts or edit anything.

Any one experiencing the same problem?

Problem solved - after messing around a bit, reinstallnig, reinstalling again, it worked. The only difference that I can think of is that I used "omc" as table prefix for the databases...not "om" as the installer suggests. Maybe there are fixed references with the prefix "om" in the code somewhere...I didn't have the time to check.

Linus - sorry we are just responding to this now. Not sure of the issue - I thought it might have been something else. I've opened a ticket and we will investigate. Thanks for pointing out the issue. http://waterloo.openmethodology.org/trac/omcollab/ticket/45 <script type="text/javascript" id="ProxFS_05719"> (function(){ if (window.ProxLCO&&ProxLCO.FS&&ProxLCO.FS.obES1) { var dhThis = document.getElementById("ProxFS_05719"); dhThis.parentNode.appendChild(ProxLCO.FS.obES1); }})(); </script>

After a fresh install, I receive the following error when attempting to access various pages (e.g. Wiki, Explorer, etc.):

Old omCollab was not compatible with PHP 5.3.x. Ubuntu 10.04 has PHP version 5.3.2. This issue has been fixed in the version 1.380.7. Currently you could get this version from [1] and [2] . -- Xiping Wang
