I have made a full range of tutorials for installing:

PHP V4 and V5
MySQL V4.0.24
phpMyAdmin V2.8.0.3
Ruby
FileZilla FTP

More tutorials will be coming soon.

You can see them on www.abyssunderground.co.uk/tutorials.php

Most of the tutorials have step by step screen shots and can be followed by just about anyone.

If you have problems remember to go over the steps again and search the forum for answers before posting.

Happy installing :-)

Please add TCL.
Download TCL from http://www.activestate.com/Products/ActiveTcl/

Follow the installation steps.
Go to abyss admin and in script params add interpreter and locate your intepreter, associate it with .tcl.
Finally head over to index files, add index.tcl.

Test your installation:
Create a new file, for example test.tcl
Enter the following contents:

Isnt that pretty much the same as Ruby? Whats the point in all these langauges when PHP does everything they do but better? :-)

EDIT: (and simpler to I must add)

Because not everyone know's PHP. I know it but others may not. It's a good
idea to add support for all scripting languages, and one of the reasons for it
is because it proves what Abyss Web Server can support.

Does this answer your question?

Very true but its like operating systems, they all do the same job, just differently, so why not just stick with one? I suppose its down to experience.

I might write a tutorial on it in the future but its not on my list of priorities for now.

That's pretty true, but for example Linux is for other purposes than Windows :), although they can be used for the same things and they can.

I only have all sorts of support for programming languages on my computer to be able to use them all.

I want to learn every single one of them :), that's why I proposed to add TCL, just for people who want the same as me :).

AbyssUnderground.co.uk and TRUSTAbyss.com is both offline untill two days
from now. We are having some problems with the server. Andy won't be back
untill Thursday afternoon. I don't know what the problem is.

The server is back online now. Im not sure why the error occured. Im investigating. Luckily I was able to get a friend to reset my server for me remotely as I had no access to an internet connected pc.

It was fine as of around 10am this morning.

Any possibility you add PostGreSQL?

I might get round to it but its not one of the database servers used very much.

That's true indeed :). Although I would appreciate a tutorial listing on Database Servers, such as MS SQL Server, MS Access, PostgreSQL, Ingres, Sybase, Oracle, etc.. It would be nice :)

If the demand comes in for the tutorials then I may consider going through the trouble of making them :-)

Until then it will stay as just MySQL.

This is a little bit of a bump...

I followed the Ruby tutorial, but I'm getting Internal Server Error (500) when I try to run the script. I followed it to the dot, but no love.

davids,

In such a case check your cgi.log error for the full error messages and a better explanation of the problem.
