Missing folders

Joined: Sep 13, 2008 Posts: 3

I recently d/L the map man. 2.1 and as i was reading the readme , i noticed the files to chmod

(-modules/Maps/ "maps"
-modules/Maps/ "temp"
-modules/Maps/images/ "cat"
-modules/Maps/images/ "maps"
-modules/Maps/images/ "maps/thumb")

didn't exist in the d/L. Is there a recent d/L i need that has these files/ folders?
I am using this w/ nuke evo 7.6 by the way. So of course i installed the app and there were tables that failed to be created.
This is the result,

* CREATE TABLE nuke_mapcat failed
* CREATE TABLE nuke_mapconfig failed
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* INSERT INTO nuke_mapconfig was successful
* CREATE TABLE `nuke_mapmap failed
* CREATE TABLE `nuke_mapreviews failed
* CREATE TABLE nuke_maptemp failed
* CREATE TABLE nuke_mapvoters failed
* CREATE TABLE nuke_mapvotes failed

Installation Complete!

I have never used this module but just downloaded it to see.
Those directories are missing from the package but I suspect the script might try to create them for you but doesn't because it doesn't have permission to.
I would just go ahead and create those directories and CHMOD them as per the instructions.

As for the install routine, that looks fine.
I'm a bit confused though as the first couple of errors suggest that the tables were not created but that's impossible as the INSERT worked - the script would not be able to INSERT data into the table if it did not exist so if you have a tool like phpMyAdmin I would check the tables with what is in the downloads .sql file. I think you will find the tables are there.

yes i checked my phpadmin and yes the tables mapcat and mapconfig are there. I also created the folders and changed the permissions, i ran the installer again and the same result occurs. Another thing is when i try to select a map category, there is no category to select in the apps map upload/setup. any other suggestions?

Looking at your first post there is not INSERT for nuke_mapcat so it looks like the script just creates the table to hold the categories and you would therefore have to create the categories yourself. That kinda makes sense to me as the script would have no way of knowing what categories you want.
