Is anyone here really good with installing Unix scripts? (NEVERMIND)
hey all.. I'm setting up a video site and the stupid *** FFMpeg-php library portion of my video stream script is erroring. I tried installing FFMpeg and FFMpeg-php multiple times with no success.
The problem is all the installer scripts call /usr/bin as the directory to install, and since I'm on a shared server, I get permission errors. I've tried to fix it numerous times and finally got fed up.
If you're really good with this stuff or know someone that is I'd appreciate the help. let me know.. willing to pay for your time

Typically, shared server hosts will block this sort of thing. They don't like people sucking up their bandwidth.
Have you tried editing the config files so they are installed somewhere else? Can you just copy the needed files over? If it actually needs to install and not just copy files over, good luck.

Edit the ./install file to change the directory. I doubt it will work on a shared server tho...
You have to root the box

Well, you can try to change the prefix to a directory where you have access.
./configure --prefix=/my/directory
make
make install
Only caveat, your binary will be in a non standard location and you have to account for it when calling it.
