SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/09/01 07:08 Marco,

Recently we've had quite a few users with database issues with their clients table. We suspect these are new installations from your PCH download package. Can you check that it's not corrupt, and/or rebuild with the 1.21 release.

Especially annoying as these are new users trying SwissCenter for the first time with the PCH.

Thanks,
Nigel

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/09/01 12:08 Nigel,

I also had a corrupt clients table. But it happened after an upgrade to 1.21 from 1.20. And not a new simese installation.

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/09/01 12:35 I am not seeing this problem. I wonder if it could be related to a specific version(s) of Simese? Showcenters 1000g/200/250HD Popcorn Hour A-100

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/09/01 13:10 I am not seeing this problem. I wonder if it could be related to a specific version(s) of Simese?
Me neither, which is why I think it only affects users that have downloaded a Simese/SwissCenter package in the last 4-6 weeks. ie. since Marco updated the packages for separate Simese versions.

I can confirm that. I made a new Simese installation about 5 weeks ago. Swisscenter 1.20.1 was running without any problem. The corrupt client table problem emerged when I updated to 1.21

Yes but when did you download the install package?

It was probably corrupt when you installed but 1.20 didn't do much with it so no errors were occuring. This would explain your other issue with missing fields in the clients table.

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/09/01 17:02 Installed Swisscenter 1.20.1 a couple of days ago as a new (first time) install. The problem did occur. Fixed it with a sql statement found in the forums. Upgraded to 1.21 yesterday and there was no problem. As the finishing touch, God created the dutch

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/09/02 01:52 Hi,

I downloaded the Simese/SC package on Aug. 10 with Simese 1.45. Everything was working very sufficiently (except some well known PCH-A100 issues).

I upgraded recently to SC 1.21 and I got big problems (video not working anymore). Then I downloaded/copied the Simese 2.05 code, however, no success.

Yesterday I decided to start from scratch again with SC 2.05.

Don't know exactly. I downloaded and installed it about 5 weeks ago.

Is there a way to clean my installation to get ride of all these problems?

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/09/09 04:37 I'll run a new, clean install of the system tables before the next release. That should fix any corruption.

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/09/17 08:49 Marco,

When you create the next install package do you fancy updating it to PHP5?

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/09/17 11:53 If everything works fine with PHP5 I'll add this version. Some time ago I created a package with PHP5 and MySQL 5 for Rob. As far as I remember there were some issues, but that was an older SwissCenter version.

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/09/17 12:01 I've been using PHP 5.2.6 for a few months now and am not aware of any outstanding issues.

Maybe we should update MySQL too, would need to do some testing first though.

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/09/17 14:32 Somehow I can't get it to work with PHP 5. Simese starts the interpreter and returns only some headers. If I add a debug echo at the top of the index.php, it is written, but it looks like php exists after the first line 'require_once( realpath(dirname(__FILE__).'/base/page.php'));'

The same on the command-line:
php-cgi.exe "\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Simese\Data\index.php" dumps the headers and nothing more.

My PHP experience is very limited, so any suggestions where to look?

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/09/17 15:01 Where is your php.ini? I have mine in the Php folder with the exe. Player : Netgear EVA700 & Popcorn A-100 (081106)

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/09/18 13:50 I tried both the original location and the php folder. The weird thing is I don't get an error message, just nothing. If I add an invalid line to the script, it will show an error.

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/11/01 11:31 I've created a new package containing a fresh database. MySQL has been upgraded to version 5. PHP is still version 4.x.

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/11/09 09:15 Sorry, missed the message

My knowledge of MySQL is limited. It seems if you want to retain you current database, you have to upgrade the MySQL database. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/upgrade.html.

Maybe you can make a copy of the Simese data folder (including the MySQL database), install a new Simese package and try to upgrade the database. You can find the mysql update herehttp://matdev.com/download.hpas?filename=simese/kpw/mysql_upgrade.sfx.exe

As said, I don't have any experience with this.

In the next Simese version, I'll try to make an installer option to keep the old database files.

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/11/09 09:30 It looks like you need a few more files. I've included the files in the mysql_upgrade.sfx.exe.

Extract the files to the Program Files\Simese\MySQL folder and start MySQL by:

Code:

 C:\Program Files\Simese\MySQL>mysqld.exe --basedir="c:\Program Files\Simese\MySQL" --datadir="c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Simese\MySQL"


(change the folders to your situation)

Now run mysql_upgrade.exe and see what happens....

Re: SwissCenter download package corrupt - 2008/11/09 18:25 Well crud.. that didn't work...

Somehow in my efforts I lost the database. I just re-installed Simese and have the new MySQL now... rebuilding database.... no big thing...

BTW.. Obviously it has been some time since I installed Simese/Swiss and I had forgotten how really easy it is to do. You've all done a really good job with this.
