FTP Only Installation Ok, so you want to install Jinzora, but you only have FTP Access to your server. While this is a bit harder, it shouldn't be that difficult to get done. If you are installing on PHPNuke/Postnuke please read that section FIRST, as there are a few things you'll need to do BEFORE launching the web based installer at the end of this guide.
Download | Seems pretty simple, but it's worth stating. First you've got to download Jinzora. You can get Jinzora from the following Jinzora Downloads Page
Extracting | Once you've gotten Jinzora downloaded you'll need to extact it on your local (normally your desktop) machine so that you can next upload it (via FTP) to your server.
Uploading | Ok, now that you've got Jinzora downloaded and extracted log into your remote server using FTP. This guide will discuss (for reference purposes) how to do this in WS_FTP (but ANY ftp program should be totally fine). Now that you're logged into your server, you'll need to create a new director for Jinzora to be installed into. If this is a standalone installation this does not matter at all. If it is a PHPNuke/Postnuke install, this folder MUST be within you /modules directory. Once your new directory is created, you'll need to upload all the extracted files from your local machine to the remote server. Once ALL the files are uploaded you're ready to start the web based installation portion
GD Libraries | NOTE: We don't support installing and configuring the GD libraries via FTP, this section is only left as a reference and a reminder that you'll need those libraries To take advantage of the image resizing functions in Jinzora you'll need the Boutell.com GD image libraries. To install these (these are ROUGH guidelines) Windows Users: 1. Download the GD Library from us (or get it on the net...) 2. Unzip it to the exact same directory where PHP is installed (c:\php) 3. Edit php.ini (usually in c:\winnt or c:\windows) and edit the following line: extension=php_gd2.dll (REMOVE the ; at the beginning of the line) *NIX Users: This can be a bit more complicated on *NIX, so we recommend you view the installation guide located at Boutell.com for assistance
Web Installer | Now that you've gotten everything ready browse (in your favorite web browser) to http://yoursite/path/to/jinzora/index.html And you'll be taken through the web based installer. The web based installer is fully documented and should describe each option that you'll have along the way. At the end of the web based installer you'll need to download and save BOTH the settings.php and users.php files. Once you have those 2 files saved to your local machine you'll need to upload them to the server, in the same directory where Jinzora is installed. If this is an upgrade just replace the old files if the exist. On *NIX systems you'll want to set the permissions on the temp and music directories. This can be done by executing the following commands (command line FTP) chmod -R 777 music/ chmod -R 777 music/ (or whatever you named your media directory) chmod -R 777 temp/ WS_FTP This can be accomplished by right clicking on the "music" dir and choosing "Properties" Then set the "Numeric Value" to 777 Then create the "temp" directory (if it doesn't exist) by click "MkDir" while in the Jinzora dir and typing "temp" Then right click on the "temp" dir and choosing "Properties" Then set the "Numeric Value" to 777 While there are many ways to do this, these are probably the fastest and easiest
