Hello

That seems weird. I tried to reinstall 0.5.1 on my local machin, and everything worked fine. Try once to set the rights for vars.php to 666, which would be "more correct". But actually, I am pretty clueless.
For the folder everything is fine?
If you know how to alter your database manually, you could try to remove the line where it checks if vars.php is writable (line 179).

If something works or not, or you found another solution, let me know over launchpad, thanks.

Greets, Michael

I tried uncommenting line 179 as well as 53 and I got it to write tables to the database. However, it returned the following errors:

The installation of zock! was a success! In order to continue delete the directory "installation/" with all its contents

Is there any way you could provide a manual install? I tried importing the tables myself and I got zock! to run, however there were a lot of problems with the titles of buttons and things like the site title.

HI

I have really no idea why it would'nt work. It doesn't complain about installations?

And you should really edit your 2. post, since you made the data of oyur database public.

You can look at the file src.vars (in the installation folder, it is a template) and fill out what is needed in the variables. And then everything should be fine, I think.

Good Luck!

I got it installed and I got the tables pupulated, however it is still returning a lot of errors.

When I open up index.php after manually installing the tables and src.vars, the front page looks like this:

EMPTY: home_title

EMPTY: home_welcome

EMPTY: home_content

EMPTY: home_noevents

EMPTY: home_fun

How do I enter things like home_title and home_welcome? Can I do that by editing the tables template in the installation folder?

Also, index.php returns the following errors:

Warning: sort() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /functions.php on line 219

Warning: array_flip() [function.array-flip]: The argument should be an array in /functions.php on line 220
