[Radio_Head]

Hello ,

one of my client received following error attempting to install FP extensions :

=================

Starting chown, port: 80, web: &/&.

He is receiving the error because the domain name is still not transferred , is it correct ? In other words is not possible to install fp extensions on an ip address , is it correct or am I wrong ?

thank you
