Hello All,

Please forgive my barging in with a problem on my first post, but I
really don't know where else to turn. Here's my situation:

I'm running XAMPP 1.5.1 on Mandriva Linux 2006,
and trying to make Joomla 1.0.8 (Sunshade) work.

XAMPP 1.5.1 includes (among other things):
- Apache 2.2.0
- MySQL 5.0.18
- PHP 5.1.1 & 4.4.1 & PEAR (It gives me the option to switch between
PHP4 and PHP 5)
- phpMyAdmin 2.7.0-pl2
- OpenSSL 0.9.8a

Apache's working fine, I guess. I'm able to load Joomla pages onto my
browser (Firefox). However, when I try to load some pages that needs to
access the database (for instance, the content item managers) I get
error messages that look like this:

---

DB function failed with error number 1

Can't create/write to file '/root/tmp/#sql_6753_0.MYI' (Errcode: 13)
SQL=SELECT c.*, g.name AS groupname, cc.name, u.name AS editor,
f.content_id AS frontpage, s.title AS section_name, v.name AS author
FROM ( jos_content AS c, jos_categories AS cc, jos_sections AS s ) LEFT
JOIN jos_groups AS g ON g.id = c.access LEFT JOIN jos_users AS u ON u.id
= c.checked_out LEFT JOIN jos_users AS v ON v.id = c.created_by LEFT
JOIN jos_content_frontpage AS f ON f.content_id = c.id WHERE c.state >=
0 AND c.catid = cc.id AND cc.section = s.id AND s.scope = 'content' AND
c.sectionid = '3' ORDER BY cc.ordering, cc.title, c.ordering LIMIT 0, 30

I've tried "chmod 777 /root/tmp", "chown -R nobody:root /root/tmp", and
switching between PHP 4 and PHP 5 to no avail.

I decided to return to Linux when I realized I couldn't get Joomla's SEF
URLs to work on Windows XP/XAMPP (after more than two years of
next-to-no-Linux computing). I don't want to retreat back to Windows if
it can be helped. :)

I'm at wit's end, but I thought (and am hoping :) the solution to this
is obvious to somebody.

Thanks in advance,
Jay Mandac


i think mySQL 5 is not yet compatible with joomla, use the 4.1 version instead. our test site is using joomla here on debian sarge with php4 and mysql 4.1
