Install Error
 

I could not get vbgallery 3.01 to install. It took me some time to track the problem down. My server is Windows 2008 R2 with php 5.3.5 NTS and 64bit mysql 5.5.8.

In the setup script you use TYPE = MYISAM. This does not work because it is deprecated. I had to change all queries to ENGINE = MYISAM. Once I did that the install progressed, but, never seemed to finish. The script just stopped running. I checked everything and although it seemed like the install didn't finish it really did.

I just thought I'd post this to let you know that you should remove the deprecated code from the install script.

any fix to this issue i have the same problem...can't install it...

Main problem is I cant test it as I am running on my linux and windows (64bit) boxes the config:
php 5.3.4
mysql 5.1.5.3
apache 2.2.1.7

and there it works...

But you are correct that the deprecated code should be changed.

Here attached an installer where the deprecated "Type=" has been changed to "Engine="
Overwrite the existing one in forums/admincp

but the fact that it runs without stopping... i cannot reproduce:
question @AWS:
Does it hang AFTER or Before it says: now installing product? (after the db part)
What you should do.. anyway.. is goto
ACP => plugins & products => manage products
and reinstall the product xml file with overwrite ON
(the product xml file is located in admincp directory and called: product-vbgallery.xml)

(I will look into it and see if i can find a windows 2008 server to run some test)

ok thank you that worked.but didn't have issue when it hangs

I found my problem with the install never finishing. I have IIS compression and kernel level cache setup for the site. I had to change the cache config to not cache get or post variables. Once I did that I uninstalled and reinstalled and everything worked as expected.
