there is one thing, than make me doubt, i heard from people to look for inc/header.php

but i dont see any inc/header.inc.php

Does Dolphin Free ADs come with it? or am i missing that file?

The /inc/header.inc.php is NOT in the zip file  .....  it ts created upon install and is at /inc/header.inc.php on your server.

Are you trying to say 'adfree'? (paid)

I am posting the server techincal requirements, however, what i have found that is not listed is jdk which is required if you are on a vps, dedicated, or shared environment if you plan on using RMS.

Technical Requirements

Dolphin requires the following pre-requisites for your server:

  • Linux/Unix (Red Hat, Debian, FreeBSD, Mandrake, etc.) or Windows OS, Apache Web Server
  • Ability to run executable files (necessary for ffmpeg.exe)
  • root SSH access (necessary for RMS installation)
  • PHP 4.3.6 and higher (register_globals must be Off, safe_mode must be Off, exec() must be allowed and allow_url_fopen also must be On) with mbstring, domxml and xsl extensions (they are required to run Orca forum and support UTF-8)
  • Sendmail or Postfix
  • shell or another interface for setting Cron Jobs
  • 20MB of disk space and 1MB of MySQL DB space for installation
  • 8MB of disk space and 50KB of MySQL DB space for an average user

Otherwise you will not be able to install and operate Dolphin properly.

if this is not what you were looking for then i have no clue what your post is about.

as for the /inc/header.inc.php

if you have dolphin installed anywhere, this file would be present in your home directory or root directory of the dolphin install. in the inc directory, the file name is header.inc.php hope you can find it.

If JDK is required WHY does boonex NOT put it in the Technical Requirements where it should be  .....  DUH??????

DD  .....  header.inc.php is NOT in the root of my standard v6.1.4 installation??  It's in the /inc directory at /inc/header.inc.php


I don't remember it being in the root in previous versions or am I wrong  .....  ?

RB, one other thing, as you can see that my post states that if you plan on running RMS. not all are interested in running RMS, but in the event that you do, jdk jre must be installed as one of the most tedious steps in installing RMS is knowing the JAVA_HOME path

RB,

my statement was that in the directory where dolphin is installed the root of where dolphin is installed as i specified the /inc/header.inc.php but who knows how deep that is installed so many install on a sub domain, and its hard to say where they can look, so you are right, its not in root of a standard install but where dolphin gets installed is the root of that install. :D

It's still a REQUIREMENT albeit a 'conditional' requirement  .....  you mean to 'host' the RMS service.

I'm too used to paths being relative from web root I suppose  .....
