install issue

Hi,
I uploaded the files and when I went to go to the root/vbseocp.php to verify license info, it said that the file could not be found. I followed the instructions up to this point. can someone help me? thx

i was getting a fatal error but it is actually the same initial problem, sorry for the double post.

vbseocp.php should be in your forumhome directory. Is vBulletin in your root directory?

I do have it in my forumhome directory. that page should come right up, but I'm getting a fatal error.
Fatal error: Unable to read 27902 bytes in

Did you check to see if you have zend or ioncube installed and then upload the appropriate version? Did you run the test.php download to check?

I ran the test php and it said to use zend version , well I did lol

Testing Server... Zend OptimizerYes IoncubeYes
Congratulations! The software should install on your server with no server changes needed.
You should download and install the Zend Encoded version of the software.

Did you upload all the files in binary mode? Set your ftp program to binary not auto. encoded files must be uploaded in binary mode.

Thank you that did the trick. I could've sworn it was in binary mode..my bad, again thx for all your help! I might be back haha

You're welcome. I'm glad it worked out for your.

I am getting the same error I took what you suggested but I still get Fatal error: Unable to read 27902 bytes in *******/vbseocp.php on line 0

try a new FTP client. Some, even when checked, use the default for the file type.

I suggest FileZilla. you can get it at sourceforge for free.

theres an option in the top menu for transfer mode.

I am still having trouble mind if i AIMed you for help?

Hello,

this error means that files were not uploaded in binary mode (binary should be forced for the transfer). Please open a support ticket with ftp access if you still have the issue.

i helped him out on IM with this, Oleg. should be all set

Ah, great! Thanks for all your help Brian
