This web host is running a particular implementation of PHP safe mode which places severe limitations on what files the Mambo admin interface can create. File uploads will currently not install correctly unless you select the FTP Assist option below. FTP Assist uses your site admin’s FTP account to copy, make directories, and set permissions for newly installed components, modules, or templates. This also allows all file ownership to be retained by the site admin uid which can improve security and alleviate site maintenance problems thru the FTP client later. To use FTP Assist, click the ‘Use FTP Assist’ checkbox below and provide your FTP account username, password, and host address in the provided test boxes. The password is not retained by Mambo for security reasons.

If the ‘use FTP Assist’ checkbox is disabled below, then your current PHP implementation on this host does not support FTP. The only other alternative for installation is to perform a manual install using the Install from directory option below. You will need to use an ftp client on your PC to transfer the uncompressed component or module installation files (using a zip utility) to a temporary directory on this site. You will need to view the module/component/template's .xml installation directive file to determine what and where to manually create (thru your ftp client) any new installation subdirectories and where to copy the files from the temporary install directory over to the proper destination areas, just as the .xml file would direct this installer script. After completing this manual process, proceed with the Install from directory option below. The script will verify that all required files and directories have been properly copied by you. Then the required Mambo database changes will be performed to complete installation. Note: you will need to enable write access to your components subdirectory as 755 at a minimum (ie. owner: rwx group: r-x everyone: r-x) or 777 (all rwx)
