Solution?

Hi all,

it seems most of your problems with CCP5 installation
would be resolved by using some kind of 'install' script
I will post here when it will be ready (about 2 hours I suppose)
it will be some kind of SSH 'emulation' for those with FTP only
access (it will be very simple and 'beta' of course)
hope it will allow you to install CCP5 in 11 minutes or less :-)

-AAJ

Re: Solution?

Thanks AAJ.  We're working on resolving some of the other issues as well.  My guess is that CCP5 is doing so much higher level stuff we're running into issues that we couldn't have possibly tested out.  They all seem to be machine specific in some way.

The good news is that many, many people are not having problems at all.  We'll be releasing an update later today that will make the intall a bit less troublesome.

Re: Solution?

Hello,

I like the idea of a 11 minute installation script for those of us forced to use FTP downloads... Can't wait to try it.

OK, just tested and works on Linux RedHat 7.2

http://www.dragontiger.com/cpp/cp-install.txt

download it (save as etc.) and rename to cp-install.cgi
instructions inside

enjoy! :-)

Re: Solution?

in first version there was -p omitted in `tar -pxzf'
now fixed

BTW. in README you can read:

`tar -xzf install_file_name.tar.gz'

while should be:

`tar -pxzf install_file_name.tar.gz'

-p is to preserve original permissions so you
dont need to set them

Re: Solution?

Have you considered adding:

`chmod -R 777 $my_web_dir/myccp5`;
`chmod -R 755 $my_web_dir/cgi-bin/ccp-bin`;
`chmod 644 $my_web_dir/cgi-bin/ccp-bin/*.pl`;

??  Thanks for the script.  It should really help a bunch of people out.

this is already done by you in an archive
so the script doesn't need to set it
the only thing: use `tar -pxzf' instead of `tar -xzf'

Re: Solution?

Hello again,

Re: Solution?

I just tried your script with the .zip version and it brought up a page that said it was installed, but when I checked the site nothing had happened.  No files or folders had been expanded.

Never mind.  I had an O instead of a 0 in the id.

thanks for suggestion
I added it to current universal version of this 'helper'
to have it compatible with *-ccp5.tar.gz AND *-ccp5.zip

Re: Solution?

Thanks.  I'm certain your efforts here are greatly appreciated - I know they are by me.  I've used a com.cgi that I wrote in the past that does something similar, but gives a full command line via the web.  I've noticed that it works on about 80-85% of the servers out there and would assume your script will do the same. 

As for the RedHat boxes we run out sites on, security is tight and they do not work.  It's a great app, though.
