[TYPO3-linux] Typo3 Version 4.0 Installation Question

[Anthony Caskey]

Dear Unix Install List Members:

My name is Tony Caskey. I live and work in Shanghai. Unfortuately there do not seem to be many Typo3 users in China yet, so I am turning to this list for some help.

I could install Quickstart into Typo3 version 3.8.0. However, I am having problems installing Quickstart into version 4.0. The domain name of my website is www.ecfnews.com. To go to my installation of typo3 version 4.0 one goes to www.ecfnews.com/buck/

This is how I am trying to install my system right now:

1. I log into the control panel of my website
2. I run the Fantastico install tool and install Typo3 version 4.0 onto my website
3. I have renamed "database.sql" from the Quickstart installation on typo3.org to "quickstart.sql". I copy quickstart.sql to buck/typo3conf/
4. I rename /buck/uploads to /buck/uploads_old and copy the Quickstart uploads subdirectory to /buck so my new Quickstart website will have the photos
necessary to run Quickstart.
5. As you know, a bug in Typo3 verison 4.0 is that the cs, GB, llxml, pics and temp subdirectories in the typo3temp subdirectory are not automatically created by Typo3 Version 4.0. I delete the automatically installed /buck/typo3temp and in its place I copy a new typo3temp subdirectory which has cs, GB, etc.
6. I configure localconf.php

More specifically, I insert this code above the double hash marks:

  $TYPO3_CONF_VARS["GFX"]["gdlib"] = '1'; // Inserted by Anthony Caskey 6/7/29
  $TYPO3_CONF_VARS["GFX"]["gdlib_2"] = '1'; // Inserted by Anthony Caskey 6/7/29
  $TYPO3_CONF_VARS["GFX"]["im_version_5"] = '1'; //  Modified or inserted by TYPO3 Install Tool.
  $TYPO3_CONF_VARS["GFX"]["im_negate_mask"] = '1'; // Inserted by Anthony Caskey 6/7/29
  $TYPO3_CONF_VARS["GFX"]["im_imvMaskState"] = '1'; // Inserted by Anthony Caskey 6/7/29
  $TYPO3_CONF_VARS[GFX]["im_v5effects"] = "0"; 
  $TYPO3_CONF_VARS["GFX"]["im_mask_temp_ext_gif"] = '1'; // Inserted by Anthony Caskey 6/7/29

  $TYPO3_CONF_VARS["GFX"]["im_combine_filename"] = 'composite';

  $TYPO3_CONF_VARS["GFX"]["TTFdpi"] = '96'; // Inserted by Anthony Caskey 6/7/29
7. I comment out the die command in the /typo3/install/index.php file

8. I run the Typo3 123 install tool:

/buck/typo3/install/index.php?mode=123&step=1

The database is successfully read, but I get this error message at the front end:

 Error!
No pages are found on the rootlevel! 

In addition, no tree structure shows at the front end.

If any of you have any suggestions about what I should do, I would be most appreciative.

Many thanks,

Tony Caskey
