Installer system root

Ok, I have a new linux server with php / pear / etc all installed.


I have uploaded the mysource files to a folder called mysource in my httpdocs file



I have uploaded the installer just to httpdocs



When I run it, it asks for the system root, I enter mysource onto the path, click next, and the screen goes blank, with 'done' in the status bar.



Any ideas?



Rich…:slight_smile:

Matrix can't sit inside the Installer location (i.e. the Matrix root directory can't be inside the Installer directory). If your Apache DocumentRoot is set to /var/www/html, you should use:


/var/www/html/matrix

/var/www/html/installer



You should also use the full path to Matrix instead of a relative path. The path you specify gets placed into the main configuration file for Matrix and should be absolute.
