Hi Kurt,
Definitely will need to have PHP working correctly in order for any of the
modules to work, but since our last email exchange, Memetic Core released
an awesome and easy to follow package of modules for groups, offline IMs,
profiles, and search. I got it installed on both my personal grid and the
grid at work with not a single issue - and the instructions made sense!
I highly recommend it, download the package at: http://public.odosys.net/**
files/opensim/os_modules/<http://public.odosys.net/files/opensim/os_modules/>
I detailed the steps I took on a Windows & IIS system:
http://fleep.wikispaces.com/FleepGrid (11/19 entry)
Best of luck with the PHP errors but I think if you can iron those out,
you'll have a lot more success with Mimetic's package than we were having
trying to install each module individually. :)
Sincerely,
- Chris/Fleep
