Hey Guys!
Ive been trying to install Matrix all weekend but nothing seems to be going my way! The latest error message i get is:
MySource Warning
File: [SYSTEM_ROOT]\core\include\package_manager.inc Line: 161
Message: Asset "design_area_menu_stalks" fails the "asset" requirement for "design_area_menu_recursive v0.1"
As specified by [SYSTEM_ROOT]/core\assets/designs/design_areas/menu/design_area_menu_stalks/asset.xml
I really dont know what i am doing wrong. I meet all of the requirements stated. Basically, the installer is in my web directory so i can access it via a web browser and the Matrix is installed under c:/mysource matrix.
The installer runs fine and but when it comes to checking the requirements, the first three are green, which is good, i dont have pspell and the rest (below the horizontal line) are the yellow circles … but i continue anyway and i setup and configure it fine.
I called the DB mysource and when it tries to populate the tables i get the error message above.
Another thing that confuses me, is where to put the Alisas thing, it says to put it in the httpd.conf file but it doesnt say where exactly to put it.
Can anyone help me???

If you aren't using virtual-host blocks in your httpd.conf (and I assume you aren't here), putting down the bottom of the file should work - I've got RC1 running on my own (non-work) comp with the aliases right down the bottom and it works well.
Hey Guys,
Thanks for the help, ill give it a try today and see what happens. Ill let you know the outcome when ive done. Hopefully this will work because i really want to utilise matrix but i cant get it to work!!
Hey guys!
Im installing matrix right now and im on step 5, the set up. ive filled in all the details but what should i put for the site root url?
i got to step 15 or 16 where it tries to populate the db with data but i get this message:
MySource Warning

i dropped the db and started again but that didnt work so i dont know what to do now. I checked the post that you put up but it didnt help much although the error message is similar. I put the aliases right at the bottom of the httpd.conf file as well like you said. I do meet the requirements as well.
anyone seen these messages before?

ive tried installing matrix again but i get these errors this time
That looks like you're using PHP5. Currently Matrix doesn't run on that version of PHP, you'll need to downgrade to PHP4.
If you have access to the php.ini (I assume you have), I guess you can put in the "zend.ze1_compatibility_mode = On" switch into that to make it work like PHP4 (so they say… I haven't tried it myself), but that kinda defeats the purpose of having PHP5 on there in the first place. :-/
Nope, zend compatibility doesn't work, at least in all the ways I've tried to get it working.
Okay, thanks for clearing that up Marcus
hey guys,
thanks for that, im downgrading to a lower version of php and ill try installing matrix again!

Hello,
I've read that the following error is a known bug that will be fixed in RC2 which will be released next week.
I've tried many times to install matrix but keep getting the quoted error. Would you guys advise me to wait until RC2 or carry on trying to install it?
I meet all the requirments, tried from the CLI, tried the web based installer, tried dropping the tables and making them again … so what do you recommend?
If nothing is working for you, wait until a copy of RC2 is released. Next week, a copy of RC2 that can be used for new installs will be released so you can tr installing again. An upgrade version will follow in the comming weeks once we make some improvments to the patching system.
Hi
I’m getting the same problem in RC2 on win XP.
See my post at:

I’m using PHP 4.3.9 and all pear packages are the same versions as the requirements.
I get the same error using CLI (not CGI) installer. See also the post at:

Can anyone offer any additional suggestions?
Search for files with an extension that ends 000644 – these were incorrectly named in earlier versions of the zip archive and will cause this problem. Just remove all the numbers and it should install.
Thanks Avi;
That's done it. Its successfully installed.
Cheers
