When building these new scripts, what am I supposed to use to package up the files that get dropped into the http directory of the user?
I take all the necessary files that will be put into the users install directory of choice... SSH cd into the directory... set the file permissions they should inherit... remove the install folder... and then execute tar -czf package.tar.gz *
But, for some reason it's just not decompressing the files into the folder when the install is requested.
Anyone got a dumbed down version of the documentation for this? It used to be so much simpler to offer custom scripts... now with the sync and vender and junk, it just comes across as a PITA. It's just a simple modified version of phpBB... where is the problem here?
I don't need it to be publicly distributable (I don't need an addon sync server), I don't need it to be a "trusted vendor" (I'm fine with it being parked in the cpanel folder). I just want to know why it won't decompress the tar.gz file.
Oh yeah... plus the IE bug. But there are enough posts about that already.
