    Im installing onto a local server (Synology Cube Station). Using phpMyadmin 2.9.1. Everything went well, till I installed wp on the server (wp-admin/install.php), entered my email in step one, then I get hung on the next screen, which only displays the info below:

    Second Step

    Now we’re going to create the database tables and fill them with some default data.

    Great!!.. No password. and it appears to be done downloading. When i go into the wordpress area, everything seems to be there. But of course, I cant login as admin without the unknown password. No email was sent either. Tried using Firefox browser.. same issue.

    Anyone seen this one before??

    Thanks, T

  • This *might* shed some light on the matter maybe? Also, use this guide to “reset” your password, then WRITE IT DOWN.. ;)=) I hope this helps.. Good luck!

    Thanks so much for picking this “ONE” to RE: to!! I have no doubt Im seeing the same issue described where the send mail option is somehow disabled on the server.. Need to do some digging to find out where that gets turned on (Synology Cubestation)

    I have achieved sucess, however following the guide you pointed me at to manually edit the password with phpMyadmin, so I am blogging!!

    Thanks!

    Glad to help, can this be marked [Resolved] now, or..? ?? =)

    ah yes.. resolved. THis isnt a WP issue, but if anyone can tell me how to enable send mail on my Synology Cube station, it would save me a great deal of time, and possibly the life of my cube station.

    Without this enabled, users are unable to register.. ??

    Hmm, don’t they have a support contact address, or forum? I’m sorry.. but, I never dealt with that before.. hopefully someone else might have though. Good luck!

    Probably not anyone else out there with a Synology product.. But Just In case (cool products, and they run WP nicely!!), They have acknowledged the issue is in their server and are looking to release a Beta S/W Rev to fix it next week (11/24/06).

    This appears to be an issue in their Cube station and Disk Station products.

    Oh ok, well, hopefully things get worked out for you then.. Good luck! ?? ??

    A way to bypass the bug is this.
    Replace line 390 in index-install.php before install or on a reinstall.

    It will input YourPassword as the password.

    $user_id = wpmu_create_user( ‘admin’, $pass, $email);

    Change to:

    $user_id = wpmu_create_user( ‘admin’, YOURPASSWORD, $email);

    Change the code back after install for secuirty.
