login instead of install
#1
Hello,

I very recently started fiddling about with GetSimple. Also, this is my first time dealing with a CMS, so I might take a bit to get stuff.

I've uploaded the folder and set the file permissions according to the instructions in the Wiki.

Now when I go to http://www.der-warst.de/getsimple/admin , I get presented with an ugly login form instead of the installation form.
I've tried a few things with the .htaccess file with no results so far. What am I doing wrong?

If this is a common thing and I should have found it with the forum search, which I haven't, please tell me so or forward me to an already existing solution...

Thanks a lot,
Simon

There is php 5.2.17 installed and it works flawlessly with several scripts on my site.
It came up with the login screen only after I modified my .htaccess. Before I did that, I got a parse error in line 28 of common.php.

Here's what it looks like now:

Code:
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
Options -Indexes

# blocks direct access to the XML files - they hold all the data!
<Files ~ "\.xml$">
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
    Satisfy All
</Files>
<Files sitemap.xml>
        Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    Satisfy All
</Files>

RewriteEngine on

# Usually it RewriteBase is just '/', but
# replace it with your subdirectory path
RewriteBase /getsimple/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule /?([A-Za-z0-9_-]+)/?$ index.php?id=$1 [QSA,L]

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php

I thought that would do the trick, but apparently, it didn't.
Hm.

Any ideas what could be wrong?

I can see php code in my browser, so it is not working for .php files.

Which is very odd

Never mind, I figured it out. My provider had a new option introduced where you have to manually choose which version of php your site is using. I wasn't aware of this.
It's working now. Exciting.
