I'm pretty experienced at installing software at webhosts (joomla, xaraya, drupal, plone, gallery etc). I have the latest patched plogger (ploggerb2.1) unzipped in a dir www.mysite.complog on a linux server (hostgator). The plog dir is 775. I've created a db for plogger. When I try to nav to www.mysite.complog_install.php my browser just spins it's little icon, nothing ever appears. I can get to the readme.txt just fine in the browser and all of the files are where they ought to be, as I unzipped right in the plog dir.
So, it's been two weeks, the only response here has been from another person with the same issue. I'm bumping this after waiting for someone who has a clue to suggest something...is it that the new version of plogger is busted? I know there are working plogger sites out there, but maybe those were earlier releases?
Hi there. Im rather new to linux server but... Try to change ownership in the folder where you have your plogger files. The account that apache uses for your website should be the owner in the folder.
