If it's on your own computer, just download the zip file, uncompress it and move the calendar directory to root of your web files.

see this is what i don't understand (i'm sorry...)
i'm supposed to create a folder called calendar?
i was told by my hosting company to put it in the httpdocs folder....

i created a database called calendar (i think)

also, other question....with your program am i able to install more than one calendar?
i need 2-4
thanks!!

i just went to install it again and it says : Connection timed out and not letting me even connect thru your program...i think i was playing with it too much yesterday....

looks like its in my httpsdocs folder/calendar
i would like to try that now, but not letting me connect.
ugh.

looks like this should be easy, but i am having trouble

THANKS!

All the info you require for setting up the software properly is in the documenation which is available at http://docs.easyphpcalendar.com/

If you're having problems with the auto-installer, download the zip version and upload it yourself using a full-fledged FTP program following the instructions in the docs.

Support can only be provided via the use of tickets, which Brian will respond to. I do offer email support when Brian is unavailable (at any other time, that email remains unchecked).

I've just re-read this whole thread, and it struck me... Do you by any chance have a firewall enabled on your computer? Or maybe have WinXP SP2 and responded to block the program from connecting to the internet? If either of these are true, then that is the reason why it times out. Your firewall would either have to be disabled (not recommended) or an exception be made for the auto-installer to have access to the net.

Did you run the tester script from the Free Download page? What was the results?

ve9gra · 09-07-2005, 01:26 PM

I managed to install it for her, everything is hunky-dory now!

jenn · 09-07-2005, 04:19 PM
