Description

I have downloaded the package from the web to do a clean install and there are too many errors with capitalized filenames. Filenames are lowercase but the installation is looking for the capitalized version.

These are the problematic files from public/install/include.php:

  require_once INSTALLER_PATH . '/library/classes/ScriptInstaller.class.php';
  require_once INSTALLER_PATH . '/library/classes/ScriptInstallerStep.class.php';
  require_once INSTALLER_PATH . '/library/classes/ChecklistItem.class.php';
  require_once INSTALLER_PATH . '/library/classes/Output.class.php';
  require_once INSTALLER_PATH . '/library/classes/Output_Html.class.php';
  require_once INSTALLER_PATH . '/library/classes/Output_Console.class.php';
  require_once INSTALLER_PATH . '/installation/acInstallation.class.php';
  require_once INSTALLATION_PATH . /environment/classes/template/Template.class.php';

These are the problematic files from public/install/installation/installation.php:

  require_once INSTALLER_PATH . '/installation/steps/WelcomeStep.class.php';
  require_once INSTALLER_PATH . '/installation/steps/ChecksStep.class.php';
  require_once INSTALLER_PATH . '/installation/steps/SystemConfigStep.class.php';
  require_once INSTALLER_PATH . '/installation/steps/FinishStep.class.php';

We'll need more information because ProjectPier is indeed installable. Moreover, the filenames in my package do have capitalized names, following what is used in the include.php file.

One thing that could have happened is that you uploaded the package to an FTP site and either the FTP site or your client converted (for some reasons...) your filenames to lower-case. I have seen some comments about that on some other forums.

Please describe your setup and confirm that the filenames in the downloaded package (before uploading it anywhere!) are indeed lower-case. They shouldn't be and haven't been on the different installations I have done.

May I also suggest to discuss your problems on the forums before creating a bug report, unless you can give steps to reproduce it.

Closed since I haven't heard back from the author regarding this issue.
Will be reopened if it can be reproduced on other systems.

I just had this issue. Not sure what's causing it.

I tried to unzip the download and the Linux unzip utility extracted all of the files lowercase. UnZip 5.52.

On windows, using WinRAR, I could extract the files in mixed case.

Worked around the issue by using SCP to send the files to the Linux server.

But is it a problem with the PP archive or the unzip tool? Have you seen the problem before?
