make a script with:
<?php phpinfo(); ?> and run it, this will not only tell you the version of your PHP, but also allow you to see what modules are avaliable & other PHP settings.

I've uploaded a script like that at www.paulholman.com/forum/phpver.php it reports PHP installed version 4.2.3 etc etc.
Other php scripts work fine it just seems to be FUD install files don't work at the moment.
Any ideas ?

How did you upload the file to the server as ASCII or as Binary? You need to upload the installer as binary for it to work.

It was uploaded as binary.
This is the second time I've tried to install FUD.
The first time worked fine (once I knew what to put in the configuration pages), but after a month started to misbehave (not displaying icons etc). I vaped the installation completely, but despite using the same settings and files it now won't install.
My hosting company reckon there's no problem with PHP and the version detecting script I've placed on the server works OK, as do other PHP based scripts I've tried.
So I'm at a bit of a loss as to what to try next.

You've mentioned you have used old configuration files, how did you do that? Are you installing over an existing forum?

No I didn't say I used the same configuation files. I should have been clearer, I used the same configuration for the FTP program (ie binary transfer) and the same file I used previously, so there shouldn't be any issues with incorrect ransfer or unzipping.
For reference; I've also tried unpacking two different archives, so have tried three different install.php scripts now with the same results.

Are you sure you want a 3mb mail ?
I can send one to you, but which one of the three scripts would you like ? I haven't altered them at all anyway.
As one did work previously and someone else has the same problems, it seems more likely that something might have happened to other servers, rather than the scripts.

I've just tried to run the install.php script from 2.3.6RC4 and still get the error
[Sun Jan 5 17:10:25 2003] [error] [client 62.3.124.241] malformed header from script. Bad header=
: /domains/p/a/paulholman.com/public_html/forum/install.php
Is there anything that my ISP may have done that would cuse these errors ?
I've had no errors with other PHP scripts, should I just give up with FUD ?

Still same error.
Script now starts
----------------cut----------------------------------------
<?php
if( !ini_get("track_errors") ) ini_set("track_errors", 1);
if( !ini_get("display_errors") ) ini_set("display_errors", 1);
-------------------cut-------------------------------------
What interests me is that both pinkandblue and myself have had similar errors. Both happened after the icons stopped displaying on the forum pages.
Is it possible that some odd configuration change has happened to our, virtual, servers that made the "icon" problem happen and now makes it impossible to install the script ?
The script installed perfectly a couple of months ago.
If it's a problem at our hosting we need to know what to try and chase. My company claims PHP is OK, which it seems to be with other scripts, could mySQL be causing this sort of error ?

Ok, I see that you are using CGI sapi, which may be what is causing this problem.
Let's go step by step, at the bottom of the file there is a BIG binary data string, if you remove that 'string' does the script begin to work?

Very unusual.
At the top of the script there are some enviroment (PHP) modifying settings, if you remove them
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
ini_set("memory_limit", "20M");
ignore_user_abort(true);
set_magic_quotes_runtime(0);
@set_time_limit(600);
does the problem remain?

I'm afraid it still fails with the same error.
Header now reads;
-----------------cut----------------------------------
<?php
if( !ini_get("track_errors") ) ini_set("track_errors", 1);
if( !ini_get("display_errors") ) ini_set("display_errors", 1);
/* Determine SafeMode Limitations */
if( !ini_get("safe_mode") )
$SAFE_MODE = 0;
else
$SAFE_MODE = 1;
$SLASH = ( !empty...............etc
-----------------cut----------------------------------

By removing chunks of the install script could you try to narrow down to the problem to the smaller possible piece of code. I am unfortunately unable to replicate the problem you describe on any of my test systems.
