Cyberspace » Installing Joshua

I am running an SME Server (based on MiTel) happliy running Joomla and several other things I've tried.
I have PHP 4.3.9
I have created a new 'i-bay' and extracted all the Joshua files
I have set all the file permisssions to 0777
Joshua displays, but on entering a command nothing happens.
I have tried putting PHP 5 on my joshua folder

What am I doing wrong? What step have I missed?

Couldn't tell you without more information. Make sure you're trying with the latest version.
I'm 189 cm, 115 Kg, 45 years, blonde hair, blue eyes, favourite colour is blue.

Downloaded Joshua 2 days ago, can't get much newer than that.

Epic.
I'd say 45 years is pretty old.
Just because Cyborg T-Rex never gets old (what a pun)!

Cheers Neil, but what does your JS console say when you try a command?

Hmm, I guess i'm going to have to find out what a javascript console is.

Still I do know that I'm only running php 4.3.9 and my attempt to upgrade to php 5 didn't work as such.

When I run
{?php
phpinfo();
?}
It's still showing 4.3.9

But then, hey, at least this PHP page IS working!
So it can only get better.

I'm off to redo my upgrade to version 5 (and hope I don't break the rest of the website), and to find out what a javascript console is...

I so far only know to create a text file called .PHP and place it in my joshua folder (using WinSCP), then open it in my browser. But i'm always willing to learn something new.

When I pico my php.ini with
display_errors = On
and then try to run joshua
this shows at the top of the page
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: scandir() in /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html/joshua/index.php on line 52

and in the Joshua 8.2 stable box i get
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html/joshua/joshua.php on line 360
scandir() is PHP5+.
Also, this syntax won't work in PHP4:
   1  $name = $xml->characterInfo->character->attributes()->name;


You would have to bind the result of the attributes function to a variable first:

   1  $attributes = $xml->characterInfo->character->attributes();
2 $name = $attributes->name;
Yeah, you can't hope to be able to install most of today's PHP products on PHP < 5… You should concentrate on upgrading your version of PHP first.

It's like trying to browser the web on IE6 : good luck with that :)

I always see it as a personal offense from IE when I have a perfectly nice looking layout (in Firefox, Chrome, ...), and I open it up in IE and it's like
CRAP FLYING BOXES EEEVERYHWEEERE WHOA NOW I BELIEVE IN CHAOS THEORY!!!!1
