Can't Install on CentOS4!!

Post by KillaH425 »

Hi,

I have a GoDaddy Virtual Linux hosting server using CentOS4. I manually decompressed the source file because when I tried to do what the install file says, it wouldn't work for me. So I try to run ./configure, it doesn't work, I get permission denied. I am labeled as system administrator. I am calling GoDaddy now, but if anyone has any ideas on how to help me, or if I am trying to install from the wrong file, please let me know. Thank you.

I got it to work, and below is instructions on how to install ImageMagick-6.3.5-5 on a GoDaddy virtual dedicated hosting server.

Using SSH (Putty for me) this is what I did:
  • Logged in
  • Became root (type 'su -' without quotes and type in the same password) - If it doesn't allow you, you have to edit sshd_config and PermitRootLogin to yes.
  • Code: Select all

    gunzip -c ImageMagick.tar.gz | tar xvf -
  • And the rest is in the Advanced Unix Source Installation
