Upgrading to Zabbix 1.5 (Using Ubuntu 6.06)

[bigZabbixnoob]

I've tried to install Zabbix 1.5 and it's not going so well. Though everything seems to go smoothly, once I finish the install, I get all these errors on the mainpage of the site.

and it says

[ERROR: Table users is empty. Possible database corruption.]

I'm pretty confident I put up the database correctly, it isn't my first time making one and I use phpmyadmin =[.

I really have no idea what I'm doing wrong. There are simply too many documentations for installing other version and none for 1.5 itself. I've tried using the instructions for 1.4 and 1.6. When I use the compiling code for 1.6, it simply isn't able to complete. So, I use the instructions given by the 1.4 doc and it works perfectly until I get past the php page installation.

Is anyone else having this problem? How can I fix it? Is there a better installation doc out there?

Thank you in advance .

It sounds like the configuration of the database settings for the front-end either are wrong, or that you haven't imported the .sql files from the installation. Remember that there are two files that need to be imported, this is in the 1.4 docs.

It seems you're right =). I created the database but I didn't import anything to it. I didn't realize there was anything to import. I somehow missed that step. I kind of figured that when I installed it that it would just do it by itself if needed.

Thanks a lot for the help. I have it up and running now.
