    Just found out about Akelos today and downloaded to try.
    Unfortunately encountered some problems. Followed the booklink tutorial.
    After creating the database, I proceeded to generating the configuration file using the web configuration wizard to configure my environment.

    I encountered the error that says "Could not find any database driver on your current setup. You might need to enable MySQL or PostgreSQL on your PHP settings."
    Unfortunately couldn't find out where that PHP settings are supposed to be, even though I looked in the PHP.ini and do not see where this could be enabled.

    So I tried to configure manually by setting the database configuration in the config.php. And when i tried http://locahost/booklink, I got an blank page/screen.

    I'm running this on a Windows platform, using PHP 5.2.4 and Apache 2.2.4

    I read the Booklink tutorial steps over and over again to figure out what I might have missed but couldn't find anything.

    Hopefully someone is able to point the way from here.
    Thanks

    Hi stevel, and welcome to the Akelos forum.

    Your current PHP seems to have mysql disabled, although SQLite should work in your case.

    You can find where your your PHP configuration file is by looking for php.ini whe running

    <?php phpinfo(); ?>

    then Google how to enable MySQL on your system using your local MySQL copy.

    What I recommend you is to get a fully working stack like XAMPP, you'll save endless hours on configurations :)

    Good luck!

    Hi Bermi,
    Thanks for your pointers. I finally managed to to enable MySQL on my PHP installation. Apparently it didn't come pre-enabled.
    Glad to be on the way now to test out Akelos.

    cheers,
    Steve
