When I try to install and choose the Hostmaster profile I get the following fatal error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function db_result() in /home/aegir/drupal-6.15/includes/path.inc on line 55 The standard profile works okay and doesn't show any database errors. I can't figure out why it would be giving this error because at this stage I haven't even had the option to enter any database settings so it shouldn't be running a database query.

Do you get this error while installing aegir itself? Or is aegir already installed and you're trying to create a new site? Please clarify.

FYI The most classic case of this, which has been seen in other tickets, is a missing dependency. From memory missing jquery_ui or the third party library component of jquery_ui can cause this.

I am also getting this error message. It occrs when installing aegir itself - i.e. the first time you hit install.php and select the hostmaster profile on a fresh drupal install (with the required modules in place).

In response to mig5 the install process shows jquery_ui and modalframe as requirements (not mentioned in the latest aegir install notes for debian). I grabbed both of those but the error remains - i'll check on the third party dependency for jquery_ui and report back.

Yes you need the jquery.ui 3rd party library.

The reason it isn't mentioned is because you shouldn't have to download them manually. If you follow the install.txt you would execute the install.sh which does all this automatically.

so it was the subsidiary dependencies of the jquery_ui module that was causing the issue.

thanks for the heads up.

FYI: install.txt does not mention install.sh - I admit I didn't try the unsupported install script - maybe that would have helped but it didn't appear to be grabbing jquery_ui either.

cheers.

You mustn't be installing the 0.4alpha but perhaps 0.3, where the install.sh was not mandatory (but still supported, it *is* part of the project after all).

In the 0.4 alphas, the install.sh is mandatory, and is mentioned in the INSTALL.txt

What I don't understand is that if you were installing 0.3, and there really was no mention of install.sh, you also shouldn't have seen an error at all, because 0.3 doesn't depend on jquery_ui or modalframe for that matter!

So it sounds like you have some hybrid system containing different versions of aegir components which is scary, not sure how that could've happened.

Perhas follow my recent install screencast to see how to install 0.4alpha5
