index.php?qa=install form results in error

Question

Virgin install.

Followed instructions, created mysql DB and user via cPanel, added user to DB via cPanel, have given user full priviledges, updated qa-config.php file and copied to server.

 

Ran index.php?qa=install but when submitting form, nothing occurs on web browser.

 

Checked error_log, every time try to install the following is logged:

PHP Question2Answer MySQL query error 1146: Table 'enquiryn_qa.qa_options' doesn't exist - Query: (SELECT 'options' AS selectkey, title, content FROM qa_options) UNION ALL (SELECT 'time', 'db_time', UNIX_TIMESTAMP(NOW()))

 

So the DB is at least recognised by the install, however doesn't create tables.

 

PHP version 5.3.10

MySQL version 5.1.63-cll

 

 

If the Q&A author wishes, am happy to help find the cause of this issue (you can obtain my email) as I see some other users have reported same issue.

 

 

[edit] 

 

The work around I used to get this going:

Installed onto another server running

PHP version	5.2.9
MySQL version	5.0.95-community

 

then made a DB dump and copied the DB to the other server.

 

Seems there may be an issue with installing using php 5.3.10 or mysql 5.1.63-cll

Answer 1

This is probably a non-core plugin which is causing the problem.

Comments

No, as per my first post, this was a new install with no other plugins and no other files on the server.

I confirmed the error log by the fresh installation of Q2A, too.
