Mandrake 10.1 Install Help

Hello,
I ran into a stumbling point in the install of OpenEMR.  The instruction on this site dont indicate what options to install during mandrake installation. I chose the default values, I am sure I am missing a php module, but cannot find it in the available packages to install.

When I attempt to install the OpenEMR RPM I receive the following message:

"Some Package requested cannot be installed:
openemr-2.7.0-1mdk.i586 (due to unsatisfied php-xmlrpc)"

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to install php-xmlrpc using either the Mandrake control center or urpmi.

install urpmi in the configuration tool.

Goto http://easyurpmi.zarb.org/ and install the core library from the command prompt.

Once that is installed type urpmi php-xmlrpc
at the command prompt. Urpmi will download the file from the internet and install it.

Yahoo Im f_p456 if you get stuck. If I am hone I will be glad to help.

I am having a problem installing the software.  After I enter in all the information to create the database, I click next to continue and what I see is the following message

Step 3

Connecting to MySQL Server…

and that’s it… it just stays there.  Here is my install information.

Mandriva 2005, everything is loaded on one machine, apache, mysql.  The version of openemr I am installing is 2.7.1 using the mandrake rpm which installed fine.

Help! :>

Can you let us know what you are putting in the boxes so we can get a feel for what is happening.
Is the service started. Remember PHP 5 will not work correctly. You must use 4. I am not sure what 2005 is using.

turn display messages on too, (php.ini, restart apache)

Yup… I bet you that’s what the problem is… I am running php version 5.  mandriva 2005 automatically installs php5 and I cant seem to load php4 on it so i am now reinstalling it with mandrake 10.

Do you know in the near future if openemr will work with php5?

yup that’s exactly what it was. I installed mandrake 10.0 and it automatically installed php4.  I installed the openemr software and voilla works like a charm.

Has anyone gotten Fedora FC4 to work with the software?  By default php5 loads and I couldn’t find a rpm for php4.  I would like to run fedora instead since the firewall that I have is running fedora fc4.  Would like to keep then similar.
