Problem installing Drupal on fresh WAMPserver 2

By Steven_NC on 4 Jun 2009 at 23:12 UTC

Today I updated my WAMP 5 to the latest WampServer 2.

WampServer 2.0h [04/16/09]
Includes :
- Apache 2.2.11
- MySQL 5.1.33
- PHP 5.2.9-2

I tried to install the latest versions of Drupal from both drupal.org and acquia.com. Created new db and user on all attempts. Each time I received the following warnings:

user warning: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ') ORDER BY fit DESC LIMIT 0, 1' at line 1 query: SELECT * FROM menu_router WHERE path IN () ORDER BY fit DESC LIMIT 0, 1 in C:\wamp\www\devsite\includes\menu.inc on line 315.

I have searched for this problem and it seems to have happened before. From my reading, patches have been committed. But it doesn't work in my case.

I am not a programmer, but can follow instructions. Could someone point me to a definitive solution? Suggested configuration changes? Revert to a different version of WAMP?

Thank you

Drupal version?

bekasu commented 5 June 2009 at 01:48

Which version of Drupal were you trying to install?

Were each of your downloads the same size?

Could you post the output from phpinfo()?

I want to know if 'php_flag session.cookie_secure' is set to 'on'.

I just installed wampserver2 on my vista machine on Monday night, installed Drupal 7 and Drupal 6 with no problems.

let me know,
bekasu

Thanks for the reply I used

Thanks for the reply
I used Drupal 6.12, which is also the base for the current Acquia package. (same result)
Session cookie secure is off. (phpinfo below) Is that a problem? I assumed a mysql problem.

Directive Local Value Master Value
session.auto_start Off Off
session.bug_compat_42 Off Off
session.bug_compat_warn On On
session.cache_expire 180 180

Should 'php_flag session.cookie_secure' be set to on?

Updated info

I have tried several downloads of Drupal - Drupal.org's latest, Acquia's latest, and a tutorial profile from Lullabot which I assume is current. I have tried WAMPserver2, XAMPP, and Acquia's Stack. I have tried both Firefox and Explorer.

The error keeps coming back. This is all on an XP machine which ran WAMP5 and Drupal 5 and an early version of 6.

Any ideas would be appreciated. I'm dead in the water.

Thanks
