    • no database selected in query

    Posted by rgjawanda posts: 2

    I believe I have followed the installation properly but I get this when I run
    http://localhost/tiki/index.php
    Does anyone know what this means.
    Thanks

    PS: I am on Windows Xp with IIS 6. I have created the virtual dir.
    Mysql has a db called tiki and i have modified the apropriate .php files to tell it my db name, username and password.
    I can login to mysql
    mysql -u root -p passxxx
    connect tiki
    This works.
    Also I have crated the tiki database using the script.
    Here is the error.



    Warning: MYSQL error: DB Error: no database selected in query:
    select value from tiki_preferences where name='rememberme'
    in C:\tikiwiki\lib\tikilib.php on line 101

    I saw this message also before I created the tables within the database tiki, if I recollect correctly.
    But I'm running tiki on a hosted linux server which has phpMyadmin.
    Or you sure that all the necessary tables or in the database tiki!?
    If not try to use a MySQL database administration tool wich works in XP. You have to use a PHP/MySQL servvices anyway which can read php and can connect to you're databases!.
    If you have installed MySQL you should also install PhpMyadmin, I think.
    See: PHPMyAdmin homepage


    Hope this is usefull info!

    well I dont know why or how but in the tiki-db.php file i moved the:
    ?>
    EOF

    to just below the database connection section and I get a whole list of different errors

    well i moved the EOF and ?> back to where it should be, and then i edited the /tiki-1.7/db/local.php to the correct mysql stuff and now I have some progress, the new error is:

    Unable to login to the MySQL database 'tiki' on 'localhost' as user 'wiki' go here to begin the installation process, if you havent done so already

    DB Error: connect failed

    I'm sure I have all tables and still get the same message.

    Warning: MYSQL error: DB Error: no database selected in query:
    select value from tiki_preferences where name='rememberme'
    in C:\tikiwiki\lib\tikilib.php on line 101

    I have phpMyAdmin and I checked

    Any other ideas please

    Thanks
