I have done previous installs of the links program before. Trying to install it now and Fantastico with my current hosting company only installs the admin section (I remember it used to install with www.sitename.com/directory -- now -- just an empty public_html!

Also, it appears that netenberg has the app "disabled" here: http://www.netenberg.com/fantastico_scripts.php

I like what I see on the demo and want to use this asap. Any help appreciated.

The current version (2.101) is not bundled with Fantastico, since it is up to the hosting provider to make a minor change to the included .htaccess file, and 99.9% don't bother spending the 40 seconds it requires to do so.


Possibly you need to edit the bundled .htaccess file .., if you are getting a 404 error when browsing /directory/ That's the most likely cause.

You might consider deleting your 2.01 install and grabbing the latest version from here

Regardless, the .htacess file will likely need to be edited to match your server's enviroment. An excerpt from the FAQ

QUOTE:

The contents of the .htaccess file should look like this

<Files directory>
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
#SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
#SetHandler application/x-httpd-php5
#ForceType x-httpd-php
</Files>


Depending on your version of Apache you may need to use a different syntax by toggling the commented lines in the .htacess file. (note you likely wont see the 3 newer variations in your .htacess file *if you installed using Fantastico)

This info forwarded to support @ hosting for them to fix for me and all other customers of theirs. Thanks Dewed!
