Łukasz Serwatka	Monday 27 March 2006 10:33:59 pm Angie, make sure that you have correct version ( run php -v ) of PHP and that you run PHP CLI, usually in placed in CLI sub-directory of your php installation. Script should be run from Exponential root directory. Personal website -> http://serwatka.net Blog (about eZ Publish) -> http://serwatka.net/blog
Angie Zimaro	Wednesday 29 March 2006 10:09:38 am I'm running php 5.0.5. How do I run php cli? And, if the scripts are in the update/common/scripts/ directory, do I have to move them all to the root before running them in the command prompt? And, do I run ALL the scripts in the scripts directory, and in which order, does it matter? Thank you

Angie Zimaro	Saturday 01 April 2006 10:20:55 am I installed php 4.4.2, but I'm still getting errors. Starting with failing to open stream: no such file or directory ... line 37, and ending a fatal error of undefined class name 'ezcli'. I'm past ready to give up on Exponential, and just re-do the site on a different open source cms. It has been far from'EZ' thus far.
