In the configuration section under Administrator account I get an error "you must enter name" even though a name has already been entered.

Using ie7

I got the same problem in Safari 4.0.2 on Mac OS X 10.5.7. Firefox was ok for that, but again, stumbled on the next step.

Same thing in IE8 was able to get past by using opera 10

Any news on this? I would really like to install Kaltura on my windows machine, but stumbled on the next page like the others

I am having this same problem and, for me, it is happening on every major browser (IE, FireFox, Chrome, ...) on multiple computers. As with others, I am entering a name, but it still tells me "You must enter name" during step three of the installation. Unlike some of the others, I am not able to get to the next step in any browser.

I looked through various logs on this fresh Ubuntu 9.04 Kaltura system and haven't found much of use.

Due to the nature of my integration plans, having stand alone copy of Kaltura is my only option.

If anyone could give some pointers, I would appreciate it.

Thanks

getting the same on google chrome.

redone the installation in FF, it failed first time. I went again through installation and changed two points:
site url was:
kaltura
changed to
http://kaltura/
email was:
admin@localhost.loc (doesn't work)
changed to
my real email address (not posting it here)

hope these help someone

That would be a JS error in install/js/functions.js

The browser is having issues with the use of the variable "name", probably as it's an existing property of the window object, so you can't do

name = get('general_name');

because the window.name property is not writeable on many browsers (and messing with it may have unexpected results on the rest).

CE users, try replacing install/js/functions.js with the attached file (you'll have to rename it).

Kaltura team, here's the patch.

EDITED again to correct the patch. Sorry :S
