Some simple steps for installing on lunarpages, may work with other hosts as well.
Enable php5 in cpanel.
determine what version of php5 you are running by uploading a phpinfo.php file (google this if you don't know what that is)
upload a php.ini file to your public_html directory. download the php.ini file from php.net based on what phpinfo.php tells you your server is running. (example: php5.2.9)
modify your .htaccess file by doing the following:
Quote:
Add the following line into the .htaccess file in your public_html: suPHP_ConfigPath /home/username/public_html
where "username" is your cPanel username.
Make any changes phpwebsite tells you to make in the php.ini file.
