I just got iStrip to make Glass of STFU look sexier (That is why I haven't updated for a while) I've been messing with it, and I JUST got it on my server and it's giving me problems.

I have a few questions. Install directions are here.

http://istrip.foxholeproductions.com/docs/install.html

Problem #1 - When I go to my site I get "admin/index.php: Version incompatibility"

The directions say "PHP 4.2.x or later. iStrip should work on 4.1.x but hasn't been tested under this version of PHP. iStrip hasn't been tested under the CGI version of PHP and it's strongly recommended that you don't attempt to use it under this version. Smarty requires PHP 4.0.6 or later to run, therefore iStrip will not function on any PHP version older than this."

So I download PHP 5.0.4 but I have no idea what to do with it. It's just a REALLY LOT of files in a big folder.

Problem # 2

"In order for iStrip to function it needs to be able to write to several directories and files. You should CHMOD the following files and directories:

* content/strips/ (Wherever you are storing your strips) - 0777
* content/news/ (Wherever you are storing your news items) - 0777
* smarty_compiled/ (Wherever you are storing compiled templates) - 0777
* admin/smarty_compiled/ - 0777
* include/istrip-config.php - 0666
* .stripindex - 0666"

What?!

Bah, I hate things...

tech forum? I've got no clue mate

CHMOD is the read/write permisions use set on the foldrs and docs, most of the file when u upload are 755, you can use most FTP progs to re-create the File permisions by right clicking them and selecting CHMOD, just look in the help page of your FTP for clear instructions how.


Depending on your webhost, they should update php automaticly for you.

Anikan rocks... He got iStrip to work. He is God.
