install was almost complete?

Hi, I was almost finished with install/index.php when the last tab "modules" gave me

allow_url_include is On (warning, you should have this param in Off state, or your site will unsafe)
Please go to the
Dolphin Troubleshooter
and solve the problem.

I encountered this error when I first loaded install/index.php but was referenced to changed the source code of install/index.php by adding "1" opposed to the "0" and finally got it to work.  You know there was no trouble shoot  information from dolphin directly for me to change the code dolphin came with? what is this? any help?

You need to disable allow_url_include for PHP for Dolphin to work.  Your solution is kind of like taking the batteries out of the smoke detector for making too much noise.

I have already changed the php.ini settings to what dolphin recommends that includes "allow_url_include=Off" Now you said disable does the property "off" disable it or is there something other to disable it? Also, changed the install/index.php as mentioned above I will give you in detail:

if (version_compare(phpversion(), "5.2", ">") == 1) {
        $aErrors[] = (ini_get('allow_url_include') == 1) ? '' : '<font color="red">allow_url_include is On (warning, you should have this param in Off state, or your site will unsafe)</font>';

zero's were changed to one's in the code above to even get the install working.

All this was done before my post. Any suggestions?

Are you sure you're editing the right php.ini?  Add a phpinfo.php to the same directory with Dolphin and check.

I only have one php.ini file. I get the the second to last tab in the install "permission reversal" then when I click next to go to modules I'm getting the error as states above.

this is the setting directly from the php.ini

"; Whether to allow include/require to open URLs (like http:// or ftp://) as files.
; http://php.net/allow-url-include
allow_url_include = Off"

now my whole site is offline with this error?

If allow_url_include shows as off, then I have no idea why this would be happening.  Never had this kind of issue with Dolphin, even when I run it on BeOS.

Edit: Er, what do you mean by "my whole site is offline?"  If your entire site is Dolphin, sure, but this wouldn't affect another install unless Dolphin was installed in the same directory.
