TYPO3 Core

Copied from my post on typo3.install.windows

The zip-installation of v3.8.0beta1 isn't complete, and you get those errors when you are
making a fresh install on IIS. What you have to do is:
- Make following catalogs and content:
- typo3conf with subcatalog ext. Put following files there from your 3.7.0
inst (not in ext). database.sql, index.htm, localconf.php.
- typo3temp
- uploads with subcatalogs media, pics and tf
- fileadmin with subcatalogs temp and user_upload
- copy an instance of catalog tslib/media to siteroot.

Give the following catalogs change permission for user IUSR_<mashinename>(write,
read, execute etc permission).
- fileadmin
- fileadmin/_temp/
- typo3temp
- typo3conf
- typo3conf/ext/
- typo3/ext/
- uploads/pics/
- uploads/media/
- uploads/tf/

Then it should work. I have tested it - and it works on my server (pc) with XP SP2 and IIS 5.1

You're a cheater! ;-)
3.8.0beta2 isn't out yet, so why do you know it's still not fixed?

Seriously - I'll have a look at it and will fix it before 3.8.0beta2 :-)

I'am sorry for the misunderstanding, but indeed I have the TYPO3beta version 1.

With the additions decribed above it works perfect.

thanks for your support.

Stupid me! Of course it's correct how it is now.

The Zip directories are built that way:

dummy-x.y.z.zip => Contains the whole source including the site structure
typo3-src-x.y.z.zip => Only contains the source, no site structure

The site structure means those directories fileadmin/typo3conf/typo3temp/uploads.

On Unix, this is clearly split thanks to the symlinks concept. Thus the Unix tar.gz archive of dummy-x.y.z does only contain those directories but no source.

On Windows, this is not possible, therefore I have merged the full source into the dummy archive.

However, typo3_src-x.y.z.zip does only contain the full source because it is meant to be used for easily upgrading existing installations.

What you can do is to install dummy-3.7.0.zip, remove typo3/ext/ and extract typo3_src-3.8.0beta1.zip inside this directory.

All right? Hope so! I will close this issue for now...
