Installing on a Virtual Server

---

On most virtual servers the directory paths that you can see from a telnet session are not the same as viewed from a Web browser. Keep this in mind when specifying the paths used by the browser-based install program.

 

• Ensure there is a tmp directory at the virtual root or tar will produce errors.
• The Web server needs to have access to the tar executable.

Iserver (Verio) Install Issues

• The Web server does not have access to the tar executable. Copy the tar program from /bin/tar to usr/bin/tar under your home directory. For example:

  cp /bin/tar ~/usr/bin/tar 
  chmod ug=rx ~/usr/bin/tar 

• As of this writing the default perl version on Iserver is 4.0. Find a 5.004 (or later) version and copy to ~/usr/bin/perl5 or similar directory accessible to the Web server. Don't forget to make the file executable ('x'). For example:

  cp /usr/local/bin/perl5.004 ~/usr/bin/perl5
