Relay – Ajax Directory Manager

Friday, March 2nd, 2007

Oliver Raduner has written a post about Ajax Frameworks. He wrote a link to MiniAjax.com. There I’ve found a nice tool called Relay.
It’s a Ajax based directory manager for webservers. I searched a very long time for a tool like this. So I’ve installed it on my Hostpoint webserver and it’s fantastic.

During the installation I had some problems, but these problems are very simple to fix. Folow these steps and you can run Relay on your webserver!

  • Download Relay here
  • Extract the relay folder to the desired directory on your webserver
  • Add
    ini_set('allow_url_fopen', 'on');

    after the first php opening tag in

    install/index.php

    and

    index.php

    in your Relay root

  • chmod 755 upload.pl in your Relay root
  • Browse to that directory from your favorite web-browser
  • Follow the on-screen instructions

Requirements for Relay at minimum:

  • PHP version 4+
  • MySQL version 4+
  • Perl 5.8.0 (for upload progress)
  • Apache/IIS

If you want to test Relay, visit the demopage.
