Hi,

After uploading moodle through ftp, when i try to access the index.php i get this error.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: qualified_me() in /home/farazom/public_html/install.php on line 83

And some files of the it subfolder of the lang folder failed to upload too. I've tried uploading, overwrite/ skip/ resume many times.. rest all is uploaded well. I'm a newbie and really getting confused.

Are you sure you are not running out of disk space? Maybe your disk space is limited to a very low quantity.

Thanks Inaki... I now have lots of disk space and the upload is done... but i'm facing another problem... there's an error during installation -

The 'Data Directory' you specified could not be found or created. Either correct the path or create that directory manually.

I checked in the forums and found this link , it was the same issue, but there isn't a resolution in the end however... the moodler seems to have got his issue corrected somehow...

I have set permissions to 700 to the moodledata folder, as in the security docs.. put the moodledata folder in different places, tried manually editing install.php and give the address... still it doesnt seem to be working.

Regards,

Faraz Omar

Minor point but it is the path to the data folder, not a URL, yes?

I tried 701 on mine but, for reasons I know not, it would not work until the data directory was 770, due to the setup of my server.

Thanks David & Timothy... Finally the installation n setting up of databases is complete... i reset the permissions to 777 and it seemed to work and moved the folder where I had the moodle files i.e. in the root itself as I haven't put moodle in a seperate folder.

The permissions have to take into account who created the data directory. If it was you, you will be the owner and your web service user (apache or whatever you use) won't be able to write to that directory unless you set your permissions to 757 or 777. If the directory was created by your web service user, 700 is just enough.

So have a look at the directory and see who is the owner of the it and adjust the permissions accordingly.

Sorry to ask a silly question: How do I determine the owner of a directory?
Thanks for bothering

Hi David

Thanks for your advice.

Can I do this in a Control Panel application like VDeck on a hosting service? I don't think I can call up an interface to execute anything like a command, all I see is a directory listing with 777 or 755 for directories and 644 or other numbers for files. I can ftp there, but can't figure out how to execute anything like this.

Hi

Can't see anything on VDeck, but will enquire. Might come back if I do have such access.

Thanks

If you can ftp there, issuing a 'dir' command will show you the same information that executing 'ls -al' at the shell prompt would.
