Step 1 ------ Upload the contents of the folder named 'cgi-bin' that came in the package *.tar files must be uploaded in Binary *.cgi files must be uploaded in ASCII The contents of INSTALL_DATA directory must be uploaded in ASCII Step 2 ------ CHMOD to world writeable (0777) the following directories (You may need to create the first if they were not included in the .zip and/or your unzip program didn't create them) Data, Database, Languages, Skin, Sources Step 3 ------ CHMOD executable (0755) ikonboard.cgi and installer.cgi PUBLIC_HTML part of your webspace Step 1 ------ Upload the empty directory 'iB_html'. VVVVV IMPORTANT! CHMOD to world writeable (0777) 'iB_html' ^^^^ THAT IS IMPORTANT! That's it, just run the installer. I know it's ugly and probably won't render in NN, but I'll fix that. If you kept the 'iB_html' directory named the same, remember to add that when it asks you for NON-CGI paths and URLs. Also, don't worry about trailing slashes, add them, don't add them - the scripts sort that out for you. AFTER INSTALLING ---------------- Once installed, be sure to remove installer.cgi from your webspace! Leaving it there poses a huge security risk. -Matt 11/6/01 |
