  1. I'm not familiar enough with GreyMatter to help much more than basic suggestions. I can help you get Movable Type working though. I've installed it a number of times and have gotten so I can have it up and running in short order. If you want to try using it let me know and I'll be glad to help. Another thing, you can run cgi files from a directory other than cgi-bin on here. I run MT from it's own directory and that simplifies the install.
  2. Go to your cPanel and check the error log and see if it gives you any additional information. There are a lot of things than can cause an internal server error including wrong permissions and uploading the files as binaries rather than ASCII. If the instructions told you to give permissions of 777 you might try changing them to 755. If the error log says something about files being writable that would be the problem. I use Movable Type for my blog software and it works great on here and is pretty simple to set up. Give this stuff a try and good luck.
  3. There is a way to add a link to allow updating from your browser whenever you want. It is an option that can be set in your .conf file. For more info look at this thread. Note: I think this is the longest thread on the board. There is a lot of info on the config options. There is also some information from this thread on the Help Site found here.
  4. Here is a post I made from another thread that details the process to fix the problem whenever it occurs. In particular, I have found the the HTML Kit program I mentioned is invaluable in easily finding the line where the error occurs. I can fix the error in seconds since I can go straight to the line rather than search for the setlocale string. If you look at the error message it tells you the line number and which file has the error. Just delete the quotes around the LC_TIME statement, i.e. changed "LC_TIME" to LC_TIME. Don't change anything else.
  5. I agree with knucklehead. Gallery has lots of options. I recently installed Coppermine to play with and found it easier to install. Gallery is a bit vague in some of its docs. If anyone wants to compare you can check out my pics at My Gallery.
  6. I also noted that you are getting the setlocale error on phpNuke that was discussed on here earlier. You might want to check out this thread for info on how to fix it. It requires editting the php files so be sure to follow the directions carefully if you decide to tackle it.
  7. The only cPanel theme supported is the Blue Lagoon theme on the regular accounts. Not sure about the reseller accounts.
  8. You have to name it index.html or index.htm. Go to cPanel and the file manager and rename it adding the extension and it should work.
  9. Try copying this text into a file and call it index.html. Upload it to your public_html directory. It will do the redirect to the /home directory and run phpNuke from there. All it does is redirect to your /home directory after half a second. You might also want to create an entry page and have people click to enter.
  10. Oops...nothing to see here...move along. (I accidently replied to the wrong post. )
  11. You have to have your web files in the public_html directory for them to show up. I'm not sure how the cPanel install of phpNuke works and whether it requires you to enter a subdirectory for the install. If you install phpNuke into your public_html directory it should run as your home page. Right now you have nothing in there but the default directories.
  12. Here's a water tower near where I live: (They added the leaf later because it looked too much like something other than a peach.)
  13. I certainly hope there won't be a next time for something like that. But it is good to know. It was a fluke thing, I think. I think I may go make a backup now while I'm thinking about it.
  14. It is great that a backup is made every day but it's still a good idea for users to back up data as well. I made a mistake in cPanel late one night and hosed my public_html directory. I immediately contacted Tech Support and dropped a Help Desk ticket. By the time they were able to get to the request the system had backed up the server with my hosed version in the backup. I had an old backup so all was not lost and since I mainly run Movable Type I just had to reinstall it and the MySQL database was fine so I lost nothing.
  15. A few months back there was a thread with a script that I have used that simplifies logging into webmail. It uses horde and eliminates the need to add the @yourdomain portion. You still have to click a second screen but it is filled in for you. The last post in the thread is a cleaned up version of the original script. I set up a subdomain and copied the script to am index.html file there. You can edit the code and make it match the rest of your site. The thread can be found here.
  16. Something like the following will redirect to where you want them to go: Just change the text to suit you. You can change the 3 to any number you want as a delay.
  17. Go to your admin panel and choose Manage Skin Sets. Click on the edit link for the skin you want to make the default and choose yes for default near the bottom of the page. You can also choose to hide skins from the users if you want them to use only the default skin. I'm not sure how that will affect users who have already chosen a different skin. If I get the chance I will explore it further.
  18. You can see the ftp addresses you need to download your access logs if you click on the Manage FTP option in your cPanel. I can't help you with the other questions.
  19. What version of phpNuke are you testing? It will certainly be convenient to be able to install it directly from the cPanel. I played around with it a little and my opinion is that is is not an "Install it and forget it" program. There is a lot to configure to get it just like you want it and adding modules is much of the appeal. I still prefer to install scripts manually rather than through cPanel. For me, it makes it more likely that I will not be afraid to update them when needed. Plus it's just fun to get something working.
  20. Go to your cPanel and choose Web Protect under the Site Management section. You can protect any subdirectory you create and assign users and passwords for access.
  21. I just got through upgrading a 1.0.1 board to 1.1.1 and it went very smoothly. Download the latest version from Invision and unzip it to your computer. Be sure and view the upgrade_v101.html file (found in the previous_updaters directory) and follow the directions exactly. The instructions were very clear and the process took less than 10-15 minutes. I was updating a board that I had just installed so it had little data so I didn't back anything up. I would be sure that you are using the default skin before updating. The update will replace the default skin and version 1.0 skins are not compatible with version 1.1 skins. Good luck.
  22. What program are you using? I use Gallery and it also uses Image::Magick and it worked fine with the program defaults for locations.
  23. You can access the Error Log from the cPanel under the Stats section. It may tell you what is happening. As for the path to perl files, my path to perl as found on the cPanel is /usr/bin/perl. I checked the .pm files and they have #!/usr/bin/perl just as you mentioned and not /usr/local/bin/perl as the readme docs state. You might try changing them back to the defaults and see if it works on your server. I did try changing the permissions on addevent.cgi to 777 and got the Internal Server Error. When I checked the Error Log it said the error was that the file was writable by others. The cgi files must be chmoded to 755 to work. You might also try uploading the files again and be sure that they are uploaded in ASCII format and not binary format. I uploaded the .tar.gz file to my public_html directory and extracted them in cPanel. I just tried going to your site and running the script and got the Internal Server Error again so something is not working right.
  24. Not sure why you would have to change the path since that is the default in all the files as downloaded. The only difference I see from my set up is that I installed everything into /calendar2 off my public_html directory rather than in the cgi-bin subdir. I just tried adding an event in my set up and it worked fine. Did you check the error log to see what errors were reported? That could be a big hint on what is awry. I plan to look at the html and see if I can modify it to be a bit more like my own site.
  25. It's not included right now on the cPanel but it is not that difficult to install manually if you follow the installation instructions. I've installed phpNuke and PostNuke and had them up and running in little time. There are lots of folks on here that can help you install it. I prefer to install scripts myself rather than through the cPanel so that I can install the latest version.
