Hi,
Apparently, partway through the installation process, the script deletes the .htaccess file from the directory I'm installing the script from.
I'm not confortable installing as the webserver in my non-jailed shared hosting environment. However, in order to run scripts under my username at my webhost (pair Networks), I have to add a couple lines to my .htaccess file:
Action application/x-httpd-wphp /cgi-sys/php-cgiwrap/username/php4.cgi
AddType application/x-httpd-wphp .wphp .php
php-cgiwrap is a customised suid wrapper based on http://sourceforge.net/projects/cgiwrap
I can set the Action line in the .htaccess file of my site's document root. However, I don't want to set the AddType line for my entire site. If I set the second line in the .htaccess file for the board install directory, it doesn't work because the file gets deleted.
I've got around this temporarily, but thought that I should report this edge case for a possible future fix.
Thanks,
Jason
