OBBLM setup issue

Post by Zithith »

Hi all,
New around here, but my group is looking to start a league this month and I saw obblm and thought it was ace.
I've grabbed the latest zip and uploaded it to my webhost but it's here I hit a problem.
Now I've run a number of php forums on this host and have just confirmed that php 5.4.35 installed so there shouldn't be an issue here, especially on the easiest step.
That said however when I try to go to http://gkbb.malekith.net/install.php (where it was extracted) I get a http 500 error (internal server). I can get to the basic text files in there (INSTALL, README) fine, so I don't know where this going wrong.
Any ideas?

Also, we're running a 2 round opening tournament of our own 4-player BB variant as a season opener (http://malekith.net/BrawlRoyale.txt). Would there be anyway to customize obblm to count this? Especially as there may be other tournaments in this fashion during the league season. Or would this just have to be done by news items and manual edits to players?

Thanks!

Don't think this is an OBBLM error, it seems to be a server config issue that's kicking in before OBBLM has a chance to do anything.
Couple of things you could try:
1) Create a basic HTML file on the server and see if you can access that. That'll confirm if the web server is working correctly.

Code: Select all

<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<p>HTML Test. If you can read this, we're all good!</p>
</body>
</html>
2) Create a basic PHP file to display the PHP configuration. This'll confirm that PHP is running on the server.

Code: Select all

<?php
// Show all information, defaults to INFO_ALL
phpinfo();
?>
Hope that helps.
