If your system does not accept “.php” as an extension for PHP files and requires “.php4” then follow these steps: • Rename index.php, main.php, install/index.php and upgrade/index.php to end in php4 extension. • Browse to install/index.php4 and proceed with the install. Note the “Go to Gallery” link at the end of the install will not work. • After installation follow the steps in the FAQ entry above to change main.php to main.php4. • Optionally rename config.php to config.php4 and update end of bootstrap.inc to reference config.php4 (to protect config.php contents from being viewable via browser). • Now you should have a functioning G2. • To support upgrades, find this line in upgrade/index.
