Koobi Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Has anyone had any experience with Zend Core 2 or Zend Core for Oracle? The installation seems VERY buggy. Feels more like a Beta really. It asks you if you want to install the bundled Apache, I selected no but it created an Apache dir in the Zend dir as well as an apache startup file in /etc/rd.c The problem is, it keeps asking to restart Apache after a change is made and it seems to be pointing to another Apache file that I can't locate and so changes made from the UI don't reflect on the system. It's insanely frustrating because I can't get it to work properly and the Zend support takes over two days to reply (we've purchased 3 of their other products) and the client is getting frustrated as well, understandably so. So, has anyone else had a similar experience? I just want to know if i'm the only one because i feel kinda silly that i can't get it to work :/ Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/46540-anyone-had-any-experience-with-zend-core/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 I tried it out on Windows when it was in beta. It worked fine for some days, but then the its web interface suddenly broke. The installation failed a couple of times as well. I don't know how it is now in the final version though.

448191 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 The obvious thing to try would be to remove apache (backup httpd.config), let Core install it, and re-add the custom settings from your original httpd.config afterwards. Pretty bad move from Zend though, too send (no pun intended) a buggy installer into the world for a 'premium' product.

Koobi Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 I tried it out on Windows when it was in beta. It worked fine for some days, but then the its web interface suddenly broke. The installation failed a couple of times as well. I don't know how it is now in the final version though. wow really? it just broke without you editing anything? that's not right :/ i even noticed a lot of spelling mistakes in their GUI. The obvious thing to try would be to remove apache (backup httpd.config), let Core install it, and re-add the custom settings from your original httpd.config afterwards. i've considered that but unfortunately it's not an option on our live dedicated server because apache seems to be tied to plesk in a way i don't quite understand just yet. so i'd have to keep apache as is. i did however try letting zend core install its own apache on another machine. i dont remember what exactly hapenned but i dont remember it being successful. in any case, i am provided with the option to use my installed web server or install the bundled server, neither option seems to work :/ Pretty bad move from Zend though, too send (no pun intended) a buggy installer into the world for a 'premium' product. thing is, i'm not sure if i've done something wrong. i mean i'm sure there are many people who use it but i haven't seen a case like mine before which is why i made this thread. thanks for the replies so far guys Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/46540-anyone-had-any-experience-with-zend-core/#findComment-226598 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koobi Posted April 22, 2007 Author Share Posted April 22, 2007 well it looks like Zend Core 2.0 was a buggy release. i contacted their tech support because it kept giving me errors that i know didn't exist on the system because i set it up myself and the tech guy logged in via SSH and after about two days told me that there seems to be a problem with Zend Core 2.0 that other customers had been experiencing as well and that they are releasing Zend Core 2.1 today (apr 22, 2007) so i'll give that a go tomorrow and hope for the best!
