I've tried installing demo version of wwwthreads twice following the support library as best I could. I have zero knowledge of php and mysql. Hope you'll bear with me as I ask basic questions.
My site is on a host server (Unix) that has php 4 and mysql. Do I need my own personal web server and php 4 on my computer too? Do I need a php enabled directory on my computer or is my host server's sufficient? I keep screwing up the paths because I don't know where to install wwwthreads.
According to the uncompress step in the support library, it says not to put php files in the cgi-bin directory but in the upload step, it says to put the configure.inc.php in the wwwthreads folder in the cgi-bin directory. Where should I install wwwthreads? Do I put wwwthreads in both the public folder and the cgi-bin folder?
It was difficult to follow the support library because it refers to telnet steps and I don't have access to telnet. But I did read somewhere that telnet wasn't necessary.
I would greatly appreciate any help. Thanks very much.
