<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hi list,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">i wanted to try out mapbender but i'm afraid the installation wasn't successful. Here's my configuration:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">-Mapbender Version 2.5.0 RC3 (28-05-2008)</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">-PostGresql/PostGis 8.3</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">-PHP 5.2.5</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">-Apache 2.2.8</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I was following the installation instructions of the wiki </FONT><A HREF="http://www.mapbender.org/Installation_de"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">http://www.mapbender.org/Installation_de</FONT></U></A><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">. Firstly installed the db, created the tables, the sequence and inserted the data with success. Then the virtual directory in the Apache, the mapbender.conf and the php.ini.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I was successful entering the context </FONT><A HREF="http://localhost/mapbender/"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">http://localhost/mapbender/</FONT></U></A><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"> and got the portal's login surface (therefore i think the virtual directory in the apaches htttpd.conf is o.k.). I was able to login by root/root and got the mapbender GUI list (so i think the db is o.k. either). But clicking any entry on the list produced this error: "<B></B></FONT><B></B><B><FONT FACE="Arial">Fatal error</FONT></B><FONT FACE="Arial">: Call to undefined function mb_internal_encoding() in</FONT><B> <FONT FACE="Arial">C:\LokaleDaten\Krimskrams\Downloads\mapbender\mapbender_2.5\http\frames\index.php</FONT></B><FONT FACE="Arial"> on line</FONT><B> <FONT FACE="Arial">21</FONT></B><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">". Also on the login surface there was the message: "create new user:</FONT> <FONT FACE="Arial">This module is disabled. Please check your mapbender.conf.</FONT><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">" And i wasn't able to enter the mapbender_setup.php: "</FONT><FONT FACE="Arial">The requested URL /mapbender/tools/mapbender_setup.php was not found on this server.</FONT><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">" But the path to the mapbender_setup.php was correct. I think that there is still a missing or wrong configuration somewhere, but where?</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The apache log shows nothing. Even not the access to the index.php under </FONT><A HREF="http://localhost/mapbender"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">http://localhost/mapbender</FONT></U></A><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"> was logged from apache. That means the logging isn't right either. I think i did everything like in the wiki was told, but there's still a bug somewhere. Could somebody help?</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Thanks</FONT>
