I have Omeka running on my MacBook. After upgrading to Snow Leopard (and fixing the PHP/MySQL connection by adding back a php.ini), I was greeted with gibberish upon loading the Omeka site in my browser. This happened with the front-end and the admin site. The problem seemed to be with SL running version 5.3.0 of PHP. (It broke other software as well.)
After searching the forum, I found this thread, which describes a similar problem. The solution, described here, is to comment out lines 26-30 in paths.php. So, this...
if (extension_loaded('zlib')) {
ini_set('zlib.output_compression', 'On');
ini_set('zlib.output_compression_level', '5');
}
should become this...
// if (extension_loaded('zlib')) {
// ini_set('zlib.output_compression', 'On');
// ini_set('zlib.output_compression_level', '5');
// }
I did exactly that and upon reload everything went back to normal.

Spoke too soon. Omeka runs fine, until I try to write to the database. When I try to edit an entry (or add an item), I get this error:
No data supplied for parameters in prepared statement
I thought maybe this was due to something wrong with my installation, so I tried setting up a new install. On the first page (/install), it gives the me the same error.
Any ideas?
Whoops, the full error is as such:
Mysqli statement execute error : No data supplied for parameters in prepared statement
Hi Sandy,
Looks like you're experiencing the same error as this: http://omeka.org/forums/topic/mysqli-statement-execute-error-while-installing
We'll bring this up at our next developer meeting, and I'll keep everyone posted on any temporary or long-term solution.

Dave-
Has there been any progress on resolving this error?
Thanks,
-Sandy
There's a new release due out this week that will fix this error.

I'm having this issue ('gibberish' on install) on CentOS 5.3 running PHP 5.2.10 as well. I will try rolling back to 5.2.6 to see if that seems to rectify the problem...
drexellib: Santheo's fix above (commenting out the lines of code) should work. Also, expect a new release of Omeka soon that fixes this and has been tested w/ PHP 5.3 as well.
