    Installing Eris

    Hello, I'm having trouble working out how to install Eris.

    I downloaded it from here and followed the instructions to edit the file accordingly, but I can't figure out where to upload the files or how to make it appear on my site. I'm new to website building and use Joomla 1.5, so step by step is appreciated.

    I don't think you need my site but if you do, it's http://pokemonpeople.pcriot.com/

    Hello pirran,

    Welcome to x10hosting

    Your website is down at the moment so i cant have a peek but no matter.
    So you want to install an IRC client? Does it have to be "Eris"?
    If not Joomla has lots and lots of plugins/extensions/module you can find one there. It will be easy to install and easy to configure.

    Re: Installing Eris

    I could only find ccIRC for a Joomla module and it's broken beyond belief. (You can read about the brokenness here if you want) I couldn't find any other IRC specific modules, I could only see shoutboxes, voice chats and one on one chatboxes. If you could link me to one though, that'd be great

    Re: Installing Eris

    If you could find some information on how to install it, that would be cool. It doesn't show up in any menu but the uninstall menu in Joomla, and there's no installation tutorial anywhere on the site so I can't figure out how to get it up on my site.

    Re: Installing Eris

    I already tried everything written in that thread. When I tried to change the line of code, it broke, and when I went to that link, I could see what I could edit, but when I hit save it wouldn't save (even though it said it did).

    Re: Installing Eris

    You think it'd work with a manual installation? Because the normal way doesn't work. It installs and uploads,etc fine, but then there is nowhere to find it at all (which is at the step "Some extensions may provide further instructions on installation.", and obviously this one doesn't) xD

    If I manually install it, will there be an area I can edit it, and how would I get it onto my front end?

    Re: Installing Eris

    if you go here

    You can see it starts to load but none of the conf is set up so you get a runtime error.
