I am attempting to install SPT on a site hosted by lunarpages.com. They
offer Apache 1.3.29, PHP 4.3.3, MySQL 4.0.15, and Perl 5.8.1. I do not
have telnet access, but instead must use FTP or their cpanel
GUI.<br><br>
I placed the two SPT files in my cgi-bin folder, created an empty SPT
folder, and modified sptinstall like this:<br><br>
<pre># default installation directory and web address
my($DefaultDstDir) =
"/home/public6/public_html/".$AppShortName;
my($DefaultWebAddressDir) = "/".$AppShortName."/";
</pre><font size=3>[snip]<br><br>
</font><pre>my($WebAddress) =
"<a href="http://(my/" eudora="autourl">http:/</a><a href="http://(my/" eudora="autourl">/(my</a>
site's URL)";
</pre>To run the install I pointed my browser to
<a href="http://(my/" eudora="autourl">http://(my</a> site's
URL)/cgi-bin/sptinstall-1.2.2<br><br>
Everything appears to run without problems. Here is the message I get at
completion:<br><br>

</pre>However, when I try to browse to <a href="http://(my/" eudora="autourl">http://(my</a> site's URL)/SPT--Install.php, I get a 404 error.<br><br>
<h1><b>Not Found</b></h1><font size=3>The requested URL /SPT--Install.php was not found on this server.<br><br>
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. <br><br>
</font>Any ideas about what might be going wrong with the install?<br><br>
Thanks.<br>
