I have tried several times to install open scholar on a vm. I have tweaked sql to take advantage of the memory allocated to the vm and I've altered the php.ini file to the settings most commonly recommended on the interblags.
It will do one of a few things:
1) It will hang, for hours, at the "Install Profile" step.
2) It will install a generic pressflow site w/o anything related to OpenScholar
3) It will generate db erros and fail.
4) It will say that OpenScholar is installed but give me a whitescreen (this is rare as it usually never gets this far)
I would love to know what the minimum acceptable requirements and settings are for OpenScholar to successfully install.
I have achieved joy using the Acquia Dev Desktop but even then everything was duplicated and it was full of HUGE boxes of error messages.
Suggestions?
