Install hangs at Step1 (3.0.0 Beta 1)

I just tried a fresh install of 3.0.0 Beta 1 on a testforum but after clicking on "Next Step (1/9)" I get: "VaultWiki 3.0.0 Beta 1 requires vBulletin version 4 or less".

I use vBulletin 4.0.0 Patch Level 1. Maybe the Patch Level 1 is the problem?
Btw. Is it "normal" in the beta that the background on the installation is white?

Greetings

Ah thanks for this. Updated the ZIP to bypass this check.

In vault/install/upgradecore.php, change:

Code:

define('MAX_VBULLETIN', '3.8.999');

Replace with:

Code:

define('MAX_VBULLETIN', '4.9.999');

It's likely that the location of the styles used for the background has changed for version 4. Since we didn't install version 4 on a fresh test and just added it to the existing file system, it's possible we missed this.

Changing the upgradecore.php has no effect. After changing the installcore.php too i come further. Think that's while it's a fresh install, right?
But now i get a database error at Step 8:

Code:

Database error in vBulletin 4.0.0:

Invalid SQL:

			REPLACE INTO stylevar
			(stylevarid, styleid, value)
			VALUES
			('imgdir_vault', , 'a:1:{s:8:\"imagedir\";s:12:\"vault/images\";}'),('imgdir_vaultedit', , 'a:1:{s:8:\"imagedir\";s:12:\"vault/images\";}');

MySQL Error   : You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ' 'a:1:{s:8:\"imagedir\";s:12:\"vault/images\";}'),('imgdir_vaultedit', , 'a:1:{s' at line 4
Error Number  : 1064

I see. In vault/install/install_functions.php, find:

Code:

xml_import_stylevars($parsed_xml['stylevars'], $styleid);

Replace with:

Code:

xml_import_stylevars($parsed_xml['stylevars'], -1);

This should get you to the end.

Okay, with the change the installation is going to the end. But than I had "no style" at the forum. But after editing the default-namespace (first time - building a forum) the style is back.

Odd. I would ask for a screen shot but obviously you've gotten past the issue. It sounds like an asynchrony with vBulletin's 4 cache mechanism, or an .htaccess problem, since the CSS should be in the programmed location.

I just restored a database-backup and installed VaultWiki new and was able to reproduce the "no style" error.
I can send you login-details for the testforum, so you can run the install-script for yourself and take a look. What do you think?

That works for me. Please send a PM with the details.
