Fatal Error Issue when installing TestLink 1.8.5

Post by hammerton »

Hello,

I have install Testlink and when I got to to the login page I am getting the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function reportFatal() in C:\xampplite\htdocs\testlink\lib\functions\database.class.php on line 193

Does anyone have any idea what is wrong?

Thanks for your answers in advance.

I just installed 1.8.5 as well. When I first started I had a PHP4 error. I fixed that by using PHP5. I now can't get past this. I believe it may be an SQL error due to the way my hosting package is configured. If anyone knows what may be happening please post. In the mean time I'm going to try to configure the DB Manually.

I got testlink working. I think the problem is with the installer is that it asks for "Admin" rights and regular user rights. With the "Admin" rights it tries to create the database.

With my hosting package, the database has to be created first.

Once the database was created I followed the "manual install instructions" in the manual. I used PHPMyAdmin to import the .SQL files to create the tables and import the initial data. I then created the db_config.inc.php file with the proper information and I can now login/use TestLink successfully.

Hope this helps you.
