As a temporary fix, and to keep the GPL agreement, give this a try.
Using WinZip, or similar, extract the file GPL.inc from the GPL.gz file. Upload that to the install directory (where the GPL.gz file is)... leave the original GPL.gz intact.
Modify the file install.php, in your root directory, as follows;
FIND, in install.php
| PHP: |
if (function_exists('readgzfile')) { echo '<textarea name="textfield" rows="15" cols="80">'; readgzfile('install/GPL.gz'); echo '</textarea>'; } else { echo '<h2 align="center">'.$instlang['no_zlib'].'</h2>'; }
|
and CHANGE TO;
ABOVE THAT, comment out the following;
| PHP: |
$gpl_md5 = 'd091504b07b03991e24b6075ccc21f38'; if ($gpl_md5 !== md5_file('install/GPL.gz')) { die('<h2 align="center">'.$instlang['license_edited'].'</h2>'); }
|
Then, run the installer.
What this does is checks to see if the file GPL.inc exists in the install directory. If it does, it bypasses the original routine to read from the GPL.gz file and, instead, reads from the GPL.inc file. If it's not there, the original routine is run.
