No clue about the log as I haven't seen errors like this yet. Personally, I would clear out the database and remove all your files, then go through the install again.

The first time it failed because I did not have a number in my admin password. But now it is throwing an error: FAILED ERROR: Invalid mode for clean() method Do you have any ideas what would cause this? Is it a pear thing or is this trying to remove the magento directory? The thing is that my homepage still loads, I was able to submit a poll in the sidebar, but when I go to the admin login page, I enter my credentials and it throws me another error: Error log record number: 391738256155 Do you know how I can view the log? Thanks again, Mike Thanks a lot for taking the time to post this, it looked very promising even through installation. The first time it failed because I did not have a number in my admin password. But now it is throwing an error: FAILED

If you want to get good performance you need to run it on a PS. Other then that you need to read up on SSH: http://wiki.dreamhost.com/SSH So you'll login using ssh to execute the commands.

I've been trying to solve this problem for days and this works great. Thanks! One question: I'm trying to move the flash player out of the site root to a subdirectory but when I do it seems like it stops finding the media file. I moved the php and js files and adusted their paths in the code without a problem it's just when I move the player itself. Any suggestions? Wow!

I tried to contact Globat billing after reading the email and i have had no success, when i email they are auto replied saying i cannot contact the email address, and when i try and use there internet live chat it just says your the next in line but nobody ever replies to you. I think i am safe as they do not have my current credit card details but i would like to clear up the situation for my own peace of mind.

I bought a one-year domain service. The next year, they informed me that they had charged my card for a renewal. They insisted it was in the terms. I would never had agreed to this, as I only wanted a two month test site. Mastercard would not reverse the charges. Globat gave me the runaround when I tried to cancel. I will likely have to cancel my card as this is the second time it has happened. Yet another Globat victim here.
