Re: Error Before Install

I am receiving the following error not allowing me to begin install:

register_globals is On (warning, you should have this param in Off state, or your site will unsafe)
allow_url_include is On (warning, you should have this param in Off state, or your site will unsafe)
Please go to the
Dolphin Troubleshooter
and solve the problem.

Even though register_globals is OFF and allow_url_include is off.

Please help.

Dolphin thinks they are still on, so how are you determining that they are actually off?

You should create a info.php file in the root of your site with this in it.

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

call it in your browser. yoursite.com/info.php

See what the results are.

Thank you for the reply.  I ran the info.php.  Here are the results:

Please Advise

What you posted does not provide us with any of the needed information.

I see PHP is running in CGI mode. Create a new file called php.ini with the following:

register_globals=Off
magic_quotes_gpc=On
allow_url_fopen=On
allow_url_include=Off
upload_max_filesize=300M
post_max_size=300M
max_input_time=3000
max_executi alt=3000
memory_limit=128M
short_open_tag=On

Save the document (remember, as php.ini, not php.ini.txt, .doc, etc.) and upload it to the root directory of your Dolphin installation.

There should be another section below that. The config settings. Thats the section that will tell you if those settings are on or off.

Your php version will be at the very top.

Magnussoft is right. What you posted tells us nothing.

I think this is the portion you are looking for below?  And I think I see what you are looking for.  Please direct as to how to change the settings.

Follow Magnussoft instructions in the post above. Create a php.ini file with the settings he provided. Then run that info.php script again to make sure it worked.


As soon as your done with the info.php test script. Remove it from your server.

I have reviewed info.php and the problem shows to be corrected.  I have also removed info.php.  I am still receiving the same error.

Thank you for your help thus far.  Please offer more help if there is any other suggestions.

Thank you in advance.  I would love to get this script going today.

If this will help, please review the info.php at:

Thank you in advance.

Could someone please help me to get this install started?  There is a small history of this thread. If you have any suggestions, please help.

thank you

Who do you host with ?

if you know for sure they are the right settings then comment out the error checking in the install folder.

If this is on a dollar or less host i would move along to a better 10 a month host.

Thank you for the reply.  I am actually hosting with Hostgator.  I am paying too much.  Have you seen any problems with Hostgator?

Can you run the following php function

echo get_cfg_var('cfg_file_path');

This function will not return configuration information set when the PHP was compiled, or read from an Apache configuration file. It might explain why init_get returns a negative. If it does returns a value, than run the following

echo ini_get('register_globals');

echo ini_get('safe_mode');

I had the same problem and just figured it out.

Place the .ini file in the install folder and the root.

Awesome Hotstreak.  That got me in.  I have been stuck on this all day.

Thanks Again.

Hostgator as a php ini quick config right in cpanel   thats all that was needed.....
