You will have to create your own theme with ajax auto-complete for it. The grouping system works on a hierarchial self lookup for parent-child entries. Any higher level groups created will be available for being the parent group of a new entry that needs to be under it.

Re: Database error after .16 to .17 upgrade (5 replies, posted in Installation)
Please pm me your backup from within FA for the said company. Also attach your config.inc.php file after deleting the db password.
Looks like it is a clear case of either some new variables with backward compatibility options not conforming to your specific choices or a database schema incompatibility. The latter would be so if you have been using FA for quite some time and have been incrementally upgrading it as versions change.
State whether you are using Linux or Windows or Mac and the webserver, php and mysql versions. Will try to hammer out a sql that you can restore to get it working. Also please check the charset and collations used.
There are some errors in the Norweigian COA - one extra field is present there and some are mis-ordered besides some default diffs. Attached are the corrections that may be taken into the appropriate package in the FA repo.

No significant changes since v2.3.14 (2013-01-18) in the sql schema for the US standard 4 digit Chart of Accounts.
What Chart of Accounts are you using? Compare with the current one and see if there is any significant difference that might cause this kind of trouble.
Take a backup zip of your company's database and check.
Try upgrading directly to v2.3.18+Git.

Check in Firefox browser with java plugin enabled.
Also some temp or cache folder may not have write access by the webserver user.
Unfortunately, despite my having put up the code both here and in my personal repo, the official repo does not want to get update the package as it is considered vulnerable.... The rationale here is possibly to retain a non working package for users to hack it themselves rather than a partially hacked version that will still require hacking albeit a lot less and yet usable.

Re: Frontaccounting installation - What file to run (4 replies, posted in Installation)
Check where the httpd.conf resides - in debian it is in /etc/apache2/sites-available/* from where it gets symlinked to /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/* when a2ensite sitename is executed or it can be manually done and apache2ctl restart issued.

Re: The entered information is a duplicate. (2 replies, posted in FA Modifications)
The following is declared inside the function set_global_connection($company=-1) in includes\db\connect_db.inc:
$db_duplicate_error_code = 1062;The said error is triggered when the $db_error matches the above in function frindly_db_error($db_error) in includes/error.inc. The phrase frindly is used here instead of the more intuitive spelling friendly.
The function frindly_db_error is called in function check_db_error also in the same file includes/error.inc, which displays all other errors than this duplicate error.

Re: Frontaccounting installation - What file to run (4 replies, posted in Installation)
What OS?
What WebServer?
Since you used TAR, assuming linux (example Debian/Ubuntu) and that you already have your MySQL and PHP and Apache2 running and have created your FA database and user and assigned access of the database to the user.
wget https:/sourceforge.net/projects/frontaccounting/files/FrontAccounting-2.3/2.3.18/frontaccounting-2.3.18.tar.gz
tar -xzf frontaccounting-2.3.18.tar.gz -C /var/www
chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/frontaccountingMake sure that your apache server has it's root folder as /var/www/frontaccounting ( edit the file at /etc/apache2/sites-available/default and restart Apache with apache2ctl restart )
Now browse to http://IP.or.FQDN/ and start the web install. Have your FA Database name and user and password handy.

Re: FA table character set (6 replies, posted in Setup)
Make the database and tables latin1 and the columns default collation as latin1_general_ci or latin1_swedish_ci but it should be uniform throughout. Alternatively, make everything utf8 and collation utf8_general_ci which is the default recommended type.
It might be easier to take a backup of the sql, edit the sql and then restore it. The database collation and charset must be done outside of FA.

Re: FA table character set (6 replies, posted in Setup)
If you are using only english, then it may be okay but make sure the collation is the same for all string fields.

Which version of FA are you using?
What is the Host OS (Windows / Linux), WebServer (IIS/Apache) ?
Have you created your MySQL user, database and assigned appropriate privileges to the user for the database and flushed privileges to make the changes visible / usable?
Did you install any of the sqls for company 0 manually or did you go thru the full install with proper file and folder permissions?

Re: redirecting to login page again and again (19 replies, posted in Installation)
Just checked out your site and it appears some files (index.php, config_db.php, etc) are served from some other location and the database parameters too are taken from probably some default setting in the php.ini or from the host. Turned off the install folder and renamed the .htaccess file to be an invalid name. Now there is less of a time out occurring.
This is due to the fact that the site is in previewdns mode and probably, on proper hosting in the production environment (with proper dns assignment), this issue will vanish.
