gzinflate()

Post by nykey »

Hi. I am looking for some answers for some time now.... And while I was Googling came up with this site and tought maybe I'll get here a little chance. Ok, this is my problem: I instaled latest versions of PHP, MySQL (licensed version even ), Apache, OpenSSL, mod_SSL and mm on my personal Linux server. Now... I have a script ( PHP script ofcourse ). And when I tried to install it ( it has a web installer ) I opened my url in a browser ( e.g. http://localhost/scriptdir/admin/install.php ) and I got an error. I cannot tell you the exact error but is something about gzinflate() ( the "install.php" file is coded so I cannot look into it too much, I only see this: "eval(gzinflate(base64_decode('FZW1zsYMjkZvZbuZXynCpNEUYWZ806zCzJyr328rd5at59invNLh3/XXTtWQHuW/s3QvCex/izKfi/Lf/+KTCBZOVxN7F0wyCBU+XRDZyxZ4a3NzQtqN2IhJmgazxQ2TAd+7..." and it goes on with more encrypted stuff. ). Now, my question is ... how do I make the script work ? Do I have to enable some module, or function. .. when installing PHP or Apache on my server ? I would be more than greatfull if someone would get me out of this mess. I hope you understand my problem, and what I meant. -Cheers-

Pyrite how should I compile PHP with zlib support ? Run the "./configure" command with --with=zlib option or should I specify the full path to zlib's dir... for example --with=/usr/local/zlib ... I need more info on that if you could. Thanks.

By the way guys... the script is not old... actually is the latest version of RadLance Gold v6 from http://www.radscripts.com.

And it uses "eval" ( I don't know why )... but the script is very much encoded... so I cannot modify it to using something else. So, I just have to install it as it is. But I seem not to get an answer for my problem. And neither do the RadLance guys know... they said I'm the first one that I couldn't get the script installed. I may be noobish... but I can install a damn thing wich uses a web interface :)
So I tought it is something with my webserver or my webserver's "components". So Pyrite sugested that zlib is the problem. Anyone has a better answer for this ? Untill Pyrite answers me and I'll try to configure it with zlib. Thanks again guys.

A simple --with=zlib should be enough, but if configure doesn't find it, then yea, try the full path to it. Read the php manual page on zlib.
