TYPO3 Core

Got an Email from Michael Stucki at the Windows-Install list:

Seems like the file copy is not working then. Can you please do this:

- Open t3lib/class.t3lib_install.php and search for "Configuration written"
- Please remove the "@" before "unlink", "copy" above in this condition
- Some lines down, look for this line:

$this->messages[] = $msg;
and append this:
                                t3lib_div::debug($msg,'Message');

There shouldn't be any write access problem. Apache is running as a user who has write access to the complete document root (with subdirs).

The install tool gives the following information about the permissions:
typo3temp/ writable
typo3temp/pics/ writable
typo3temp/temp/ writable
typo3temp/llxml/ writable
typo3temp/cs/ writable
typo3temp/GB/ writable
typo3conf/ writable
typo3conf/ext/ writable
typo3conf/l10n/ writable
typo3/ext/ writable
uploads/ writable
uploads/pics/ writable
uploads/media/ writable
uploads/tf/ writable
fileadmin/ writable
fileadmin/_temp_/ writable

Maybe some program holds a lock on the file? You could eg have opened the file in an editor.

So can we assume it's a problem of your configuration, not TYPO3?

I dont think that it is a Problem with my configuration. If i'm using the class.t3lib_install.php from the SVN Checkout Version 3-8-0rc1 everything works fine.

In 3.8 TYPO3 didn't write the changes into a temporay file.

I have been running TYPO3 on Windows XP, 2000 and 2003 without encountering this problem.

Hi,

the localconf.php.TMP.php is written with the correct values.
if i'm using the t3lib/class.t3lib_install.php from 3.8 in the installed 4.1RC1 everything works fine.

So can we assume:
1. The localconf.php.TMP.php is writeable
2. The localconf.php is writeable to (The 3.8 install Class can write to that file)

I will take a look at the diff between those versions and will tell you if i find any problems

Resolved, unable to reproduce:

- Two years with no further feedback
- No one else seems to encounter and confirm this problem in recent versions, so this is probably an issue specific to your system environment

Please reopen if this is still reproducible on other (Win) systems.

I have the same problem: renaming of localconf.php.TMP.php to localconf.php did not work on Windows platform
I inserted -> t3lib_div::debug($msg,'Message'); in line 416 of class.t3lib_install.php
and I got this debug message:
typo3conf/localconf.php.TMP.php was NOT written properly (written content didn't match file content) - maybe a disk space problem?
