ATK not running out of the box

287 Views Asked by At

I'm very new to all this so please be gentle with me. I've been teaching myself PHP and decided to check out some application frameworks and decided Agile Toolkit seemed to offer some of the best features. However, having unzipped the install file into my web root I can't get it working. I get 'HTTP Error 500 (Internal Server Error)' when I try to access the Agile Dashboard.

I am running Apache 2 on RHEL5 (64-bit) with PHP 5.2.17. All other software I have is running fine so I am at a bit of a loss as to why ATK4 isn't. I've checked the config.php and from the httpd logs it appears to be using the correct path when trying to load. I did edit loader.php by commenting out the existing code and uncommenting the alternative code to see if that made any difference and I did get 'Low level error: Class is not defined and couldn't be loaded: Frontend'.

I've tried the examples and the html page loads, but the examples fail too. When the MySQL settings are wrong the error reports this, but when the MySQL settings are correct I get the 500 error or the low level error, depending on what is set in the config file.

Can anyone give me some pointers as to why this isn't working? Or where I can look to get more information or logs that I should be looking at? Are there settings I am unaware of?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Thanks to Roman I have now got Agile Toolkit working. I feel slightly foolish, but I'm learning every day.

The problem was that the version of PHP I am using has json disabled. Once I realised that I uncommented it from the json.ini file I found and that enabled it.

Now I can get on with the serious business of learning this stuff :).

Thanks again!
