CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I'm having a lot of problems getting 4.1.5 to install in Drupal using the Windows XAMPP WAMP package.

The Drupal installer wouldn't work, even if I gave it the path to a downloaded install file. I wound up un-tar-ing the install file and copying the civicrm directory to C:\xampp\htdocs\civi\sites\all\modules.

My test Drupal site is addressed as http : //localhost/civi/, which has a filesystem location of C:\xampp\htdocs\civi.

The next sign of something odd is on the http : //localhost/civi/sites/all/modules/civicrm/install/index.php page. At the top is the following message:

Strict Standards: Non-static method CRM_Utils_System_Drupal::cmsRootPath() should not be called statically in C:\xampp\htdocs\civi\sites\all\modules\civicrm\install\index.php on line 143


After providing my database configuration, the install result page begins with this:

Strict Standards: Non-static method CRM_Utils_System_Drupal::cmsRootPath() should not be called statically in C:\xampp\htdocs\civi\sites\all\modules\civicrm\install\index.php on line 143

Strict Standards: Non-static method DB::connect() should not be called statically in C:\xampp\htdocs\civi\sites\all\modules\civicrm\install\civicrm.php on line 130

Strict Standards: Non-static method DB::isManip() should not be called statically, assuming $this from incompatible context in C:\xampp\htdocs\civi\sites\all\modules\civicrm\packages\DB\common.php on line 2195


After that is what looks like hundreds of repetitions of:

Strict Standards: Non-static method PEAR::isError() should not be called statically in C:\xampp\htdocs\civi\sites\all\modules\civicrm\install\civicrm.php on line 151

Strict Standards: Non-static method DB::isManip() should not be called statically, assuming $this from incompatible context in C:\xampp\htdocs\civi\sites\all\modules\civicrm\packages\DB\common.php on line 2195


Ultimately, the install claims to have been successful, but when I go to the CiviCRM link under Navigation, I see messages that begin with the following and go on for hundreds of lines:

Any ideas why this is happening and what I can do about it?

also can you configure your php to suppress 'strict notices' from php

thanx
