Title: SMF Now Auto-Installed by Fantastico
Post by: David on November 19, 2004, 07:42:16 PM
As a present surprise this morning, in my e-mail was a message from the Fantastico (http://www.cpanelthemes.com/fantastico.php) team letting us know that as of last night SMF can now be auto-installed by their product.  "Fantastico is the leading autoinstaller for CPanel servers with more than 13,000 installations, accessible by more than 1 million webmasters."  If your host supports CPanel and has Fantastico installed, you should now be able to install SMF with only a few clicks.  If your host does not support Fantastico, you should let them know about it and the fact that many providers (http://netenberg.com/partners.php) give it to hosts for free.  Once again, we'd like to thank the Fantastico team for their great product and choosing to include SMF with it.

Actually, I hate CPanel's file manager. I prefer to use Net2FTP (http://www.net2ftp.org/beta) ;)

Both YaBB SE and Invision are disabled for the reasons that they are unsupported and could contain possible security holes (but cannot be updated, if they do.)  They are only shown, apparently, if someone has already installed them.

What really impressed me is that fact that they have taken SMF onboard whilst still at Beta stage

I think that speaks volumes about the project and the Dev Team.

Well done to you all ;D

  why being so happy by that news,   usually those hosting co  that use fantastico , allow us to install OLD version of those various forum,  which we have to update manually,  so what's the big news anyway... :D

  it is a good news for SM ...   but useless for most users as they will be installing old versions...

When I installed SMF via Fantastico, I didn't notice any way to update through the same application. I think you may have to do it via the Admin CP.

one thing is certain,  you look for a cheap hosting co... you'll get what you pay for,  fantastico will not be fantastic at all..

old myphp version,  old mysql version , old forum versions. name it they got it,  Museum pieces.

  If anyone have the name of Great hosting companies that have the latest versions of all softwares, name them...  the list will be very short..

Wow, I'm impressed by SMF.  I have been a phpBB user and am tired of having to install all the mods manually.  However, I do make phpBB Pre-Modded packages for the phpBB community.  Anyways, in responce to the hosting service providers.  I must say http://elitehosting.biz is by far the best company I've seen.  I am currently using their service.  It's cheap, reliable, stable, and constantly updated.

Hope that helps.

interesting - we install fantastico deluxe on our servers and we now only see phpbb2 as the only discussion board - fantstico De Luxe 2.8.2 r11

We do offer to install any software for clients - but if SMF was in our fnatsico we wouldnt have so many IVP problems. Is SMF still supposed to be in fantastico?

edited -

this is not a plug as suggested above - merely wondering why our installs dont show SMF in our fantastico builds - as a comment above this would make us seem to be a "cheap host" :-)

Well,

I checked this site and their reseller plans. This is what I found!

<quote>Our Reseller plans have been removed to be updated due to over 4 clients heavily abusing them after assurance from all 4 that this would not happen.

Sorry for any inconveniences caused. The new plans should be up in early January. </quote>

This is now late January!
If they allow 4 customers to bring down the entire sales department. Not very good. I use a host which I have been extrememly happy with, they use fantastico, unfortunately are not displaying SMF yet, so I will not release their name, as I have seen some of you post already that your hosts are offering SMF1.0.

Whichever host offers SMF1.01 1st, I would like to hear about it. Please email me directly if you like.

I'm certainly not saying that any one should disrespect anothers religion or views, but I can't see how anyone could possibly be seen to be disrespectful for using the word "God" in exclaimation or surprise.
Are we saying now that non-christians are excluded from using the word "God" ?

That is more likely a permission that is not set correctly.  You can fix this via your FTP client.  SMF works fine with safe mode enabled.

I'm sorry, this is not something reinstalling or reconfiguring will change.  The next major version of SMF (1.1) will hopefully fix this issue, but until then you'll either have to ask your host to turn off safe mode, or apply mods manually.

how do you install mods manually?

Golden Rule -
Always take a back up first!

Any good mod should come with a read me file - following the instruction in there to the letter and you should be fine - step by step:

Download any files that need to have changes made to them using FTP
Make changes to the files using a text editor like Notepad by following the instructions in the mod file
Upload the changed files to their correct locations on the server
Upload any additional files included in the mod
Execute any files that make changes to the database structure

You should then have a working modification.

If the mod fails for what ever reason then re-upload the backup files and report any error messages in the thread started by the mod writer :)

Am now in the process of converting from phpBB2 to SMF!

I install SMF using Fantastico, but changelog.txt and changelog-themes.txt are always missing, and I have to add them manually for forum upgrades and modifications, which is easy enough, but I have to be sure of installing from the same SMF version as Fantastico install for the upgrades to work. - This all works fine, but can someone tell me why these files are missing, and what are their significance? I've never installed an SMF forum without using Fantastico, so have nothing to compare with.

Thanks.

That's because you neglected to fill that field in when creating the forum in Fantasico. I've done the same thing myself.

It is only your display name though, and you can create that in your profile.

If your host supports CPanel and has Fantastico installed, you should now be able to install SMF with only a few clicks.

I installed a fresh copy the other day in less than 5 minutes.  The only ****** I had is that it was v 1.02 and not 1.03.  Other than that it went through flawlessly.  Cpanel is the 'only' way to go.  I have used several others with different hosting companies and I like it the best of all, so far.

Hmmm... in reading these posts it seems that Fantastico, or rather the version that is being hosted, my vary from one host to the next.  I installed SMF through Fantastico and it took maybe 7 minutes because I had to get up and get another beer in the middle...lol... anyway, thinking of converting from phpBB to SMF on all my boards, just giving it a test run for now though.

Ello all

I've read loads about SMF and from what it seems SMF is the way to go.
I currently run PhpBB for the ACE forums, which is quite heavily modded although most of which is now deactivated through the ACP.
If I use Fantistico to install SMF, would I still have to do the conversion myself or does fantastico actually do the conversion too?..I think I already know the answer to this question, but I'm just curious...lol

If the conversion still has to be done manually, is there anybody from simple machines that actually does this as a service? or anybody else for that matter?

Nice work ppl ;)

Post by: Grudge on June 01, 2005, 07:18:55 AM
[ACE]$tealth,

You would have to do the conversion manually but it really is *very* easy. You simply upload the conversion script to the SMF directory, and run it from your browser. The only setting you'd need to put in to the script before hitting "go", is to tell it where you have installed phpBB to. Good helpfile is here:

Again, thank you for your help.

Post by: Oldiesmann on June 03, 2005, 08:16:50 PM
Before you convert, you will need to make sure that SMF's MySQL user has access to phpBB's database...
In Cpanel, click on "MySQL databases", then scroll down until you see "Add user to database". Select the MySQL user account that is being used for SMF from the first one and the phpBB database from the second one and click the appropriate button. After that it's pretty straight forward. You will also need to get the MySQL password from SMF's Settings.php since Fantastico generates a random one... From the File Manager, browse to the directory where you installed SMF, and click on "Settings.php". From the menu on the right, click "View File". Look for $db_passwd.

Just a little! I upgraded another site a few months ago. Next choice was whether to use something like Mambo and the simpleboard module but I couldn't get that to work and didn't know if I could convert to that from YaBB. Maybe I need to keep two seperate systems? Anyway, once I get YaBB upgraded I'll upload the SMF upgrade to that on both sites.

I have been helping out a mate to get hosted and set up smf for his students (he be a teacher) he's in Australia me in new zealand which is kinda irrelevant however he jumped the gun a bit and auto installed through fantastico which is fine but fantastico only installed 1.05 and I want to upgrade to 1.1 so he has now got a few members etc and data he doesn't want lost so the questions are as follows:
I am sure there is a simple way to do this but I am just not confident enough to try without a bit of instruction I dont want to muck up his hard work but I would prefer a manual install so that I know where everything is ie in the /forum dir and not auto installed to who knows where.
Thanks in advance.

So will the version for automated installation auto update when a new smf version releases?
also why does it have the old version 1.0.5 for automated installation?
why not the latest smf 1.1 rc1 ?
Title: Re: SMF Now Auto-Installed by Fantastico
Post by: JayBachatero on December 28, 2005, 05:12:02 PM
The reason they have 1.0.5 for the installation is because 1.0.5 has been around for a while and it's very stable.  Although 1.1 is fairly stable its still being developed and reaching it's final stage.  Once 1.1 hits final stage I believe that they will add it to the installer.

Post by: redone on January 30, 2006, 05:07:16 AM
Providing version 1.06 of SMF is entirely an issue the providers of Fantastico and indeed your host needs to address. Updating your version of Fantastico is entirely down to these two factors and not under any control of Simplemachines.

Fantastico is actually a third-party addon for cPanel, but we are looking into what needs to be done to get it added to the regular Bulletin Boards section of cPanel. Seeing as to how YaBB 2.1 is now available this way, I may email the YaBB developers for advice :)

So any dreamhost customers here should vote for it since decisions are based on how many votes a suggestion gets - all dreamhost customers get 44 credits by default to vote on issues (u can vote a max of 3 credits per suggestion)

Incase you didnt know have a link in your CP under:
HOME >> SUGGESTIONS

currently my suggestion is pending approval to appear on the list, but keep checking and when it appears be sure to vote via ur Control Panel :P so we can have 1 click installs for SMF as well

A lot of places have auto installs, but they usually arent the latest version, I checked the one at Godaddy, I didnt know it had an auto one, I just downloaded it here, but the version they have is 1.0 :P

Eh, I've had this in my cPanel for the past few months (Around the time I signed up for my first plan that had a direct cPanel).  Old :P

hmmm...I just opened an account 3 days ago with fantastico with it and I'm installing by hand? it isn't in there so perhaps I need to tell my host to get over here so I can offer it to MY customers as well.
