I have followed instructions from http://open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/XAMPP_and_OpenEMR_Installation_in_OS_X I am using a MacBook Pro with Macos Sierra 10.12.3 , with XAMPP 7.1.1-0 and the Windows version of OpenEMR 4.2.2 and Firefox 51.0.1 (64-bit) as the browser
There are plenty of ‘Notices’ along the way e.g. :
Notice: Undefined index: state in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/openemr/setup.php on line 14
Notice: Undefined index: iuser in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/openemr/library/classes/Installer.class.php on line 13
Notice: Undefined index: iuserpass in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/openemr/library/classes/Installer.class.php on line 14
Notice: Undefined index: iuname in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/openemr/library/classes/Installer.class.php on line 15
Notice: Undefined index: iufname in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/openemr/library/classes/Installer.class.php on line 16
There are more Notices, the above is just an example
**HOWEVER, the installation proceeds until Step 3 and then stops there with:
**
Notice: Undefined index: source_site_id in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/openemr/library/classes/Installer.class.php on line 28
Notice: Undefined index: clone_database in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/openemr/library/classes/Installer.class.php on line 29
Notice: Undefined index: no_root_db_access in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/openemr/library/classes/Installer.class.php on line 30
Notice: Undefined index: development_translations in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/openemr/library/classes/Installer.class.php on line 31
OpenEMR Setup
Step 3
Configuring OpenEMR…
Connecting to MySQL Server…
Warning: mysqli_connect(): (HY000/2002): No such file or directory in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/openemr/library/classes/Installer.class.php on line 470
ERROR. Check your login credentials. unable to connect to database as root
What should I do? Where should I start?
Thanks
