I've been using Moodle for about 11/2 years. I decided to try the 2.0 with a new test install. During the installation I receive the common error:
You must set register_globals=off
I worked with my host compay to compile a php.in file per the specs for 2.0. However, the error will not go away. Attached is the php.ini file.
HELP!
I had this same problem, but I was only installing 1.9.7 then.
The fact is your Host company should be able to fix this by upgrading you to a higher version of PHP where Register_Globals is turned OFF by default.
Hi Donna,
In both files you attached, register_globals is still set On (in line 365). You need to change that line to
register_globals = Off
If changing it in php.ini doesn't work, you can try changing it in the .htaccess file for your hosting account. Put these two lines somewhere near the top of the .htaccess file
php_flag register_globals on
php_flag register_long_arrays on
Some people have reported that they have to use the following code instead, so if the above doesn't work, try the below
php_admin_flag register_globals on
php_admin_flag register_long_arrays on
Hope that helps.
Muyi
