700/777 ?
whats the 700 for? i only set it to 777

Ok here is my problem...

my webhost installed GD, but its not showing on my php info page. But it is installed into /usr/bin/perl or the files are in there.....

WHAT DO I GOTTA DO TO GET GD ON MY SERVER?????? ;(

have them upgrade to php 4.3.0, that comes with GD

A lot of you guys are confused, especially those of you that are:

1. Too lazy to learn Cron
2. Running your own server on Windows

I have a fix for people like you. I have created a SigMaker scheduled task that kills off the IE window it launches itself in. It will take editing of both of the included files, but it works perfectly!

Just make sure you run the Task as ANOTHER user, otherwise you'll get annoying windows appearing and dissapearing every 15 minutes. :D

See... GD goes into the extensions folder of the PHP executable. Not your user directory. If it's in your user directory, and your host claims to have "installed" it, I'd change hosts now. They obviously don't know what they're doing. :bandit:

In the meantime, I suggest you tell them that GD comes with PHP, it just isn't enabled by default.

This line must exist in their php.ini file (well, it's called that on WINNT servers.... :nervous:) and must NOT be commented out with a semicolon.They could even add it to the bottom if they wanted, for easy removal if something goes wrong.

Trust me, it's simple to setup, it only took me 5 minutes of searching to figure out how to enable it when RC3 came along! :D

ok im confused. the readme says upload sig.php to the forum directory and run it fromwww.yourdomain.com/sig.php ???

upload it to your forum directory then run it from www.YOURDOMAIN.com/FORUMDIRECTORY or if your forum's a subdomain FORUMDIRECTORY.YOURDOMAIN.com

upload it to your forum directory then run it from www.YOURDOMAIN.com/FORUMDIRECTORY/sig.php or if your forum's a subdomain FORUMDIRECTORY.YOURDOMAIN.com/sig.php

my sig.php is still giving me a blank page without making the new jpg

how do u make it show the users online???
