Could not find Mint db.php

Just getting started with Mint and this isn’t a pleasant issue. I’m sure this has been discussed before, but my searching capabilities don’t seem to be strong enough to track that discussion down. Sorry. :/ Anyway…

Breezed through the Server Compatibility Suite, downloaded v2.06, modified config/db.php with my database’s username and password and proceeded to mywebsite.com/mint only to be presented with “Could not find Mint db.php.” Looking through the code, I see that the scripts aren’t getting very far.

So yeah… Can I get a link to another thread discussing this issue and, barring the existence of such discussion, perhaps some specific help on my instance of this issue?

Thanks a million. I’m quite excited to get this up and running.

Have you uploaded your modified db.php to /path/to/mint/config/?

This could be an include path issue. Try adding the following to an .htaccess file in your /mint/ directory:

php_value   include_path    '.'

(However if that is the issue, this would have been necessary for the Compatibility Suite too.)

I appreciate the input but neither solution solved the problem. Instead, I modified the first line of index.php as follows:

if (!defined('MINT_ROOT')) { define('MINT_ROOT', ''); }

becomes

if (!defined('MINT_ROOT')) { define('MINT_ROOT', './'); }

Everything went off like a charm after that. Thanks.

I also had to do this to get Mint working after an update
