    I have looked for the php-fpm file or entry in any of the files and wasn't able to locate a mention of it.
    Besides, I additionnally installed on a local wamp server and got the same problem than with mamp (and couldn't locate the php-fpm either).

    BUT, following the path of the "wrongly downloaded/unzipped files", I downloaded the archive directly from vanilla's github page (branch 2.1 or master, both worked), unzipped it AND it seems to be working now (at least, I can access the Installer).

    When you guys install the archive vanillaforums.org/addon/vanilla-core-2.1.1 on a server, no one has a similar error?

    Thanks for your help!

    I create the official download by just downloading the 2.1 branch from GitHub and zipping it :\ Should be identical.

  • That's weird ^^
    Is the 2.1 branch on github the 2.1.1 with security fixes?

  • different zip program have different degrees of resilience.

    grep is your friend.

    Yes.

    It's the same zip program we've used for every Vanilla release afaik, YemuZip, so I'm really skeptical it's to blame.

  • I'm not saying it is to blame I'm saying that not all unzip can handle all forms of zip.

    grep is your friend.

  • still seems more likely it was a copy error.

    grep is your friend.

  • @x00 Yeah, but then you get the .gitignore file (and soon the .editorconfig file), which I always remove first, and I rename the folder to 'vanilla' so it's standard every time.

    If I get further reports of the zip being incorrect I'll replace it or consider altering the release procedure, but 1 person getting a bad download doesn't substantiate a problem here. I just did a fresh install from the same zip and it worked as usual.

  • Good news then, it's weird because I downloaded it and unzipped it several times with the shipped-in OSX extractor and the Unarchiver.

  • Regardless of platform, use 7zip: http://www.7-zip.org/download.html

    Seriously is the best zip tool I have ever used.

  • Update: I have (finally) been able to try to import on a live environment, and the import worked perfectly. This is an issue linked to my el Capitan native php/apache conf... Very boring.

    Sorry for the inconvenience.
