Does it make a difference if you chmod 755 it before you FTP?
I know a little about FTP and have Captain FTP. Is the on-rev
FTP already turned on?

Hello Folks,
The Revolution CGI engine is not pre installed on on-rev. You need
to upload
it there, to the cgi-bin folder and chmod 755 it. A webdisk, I
think is a
WebDAV volume like an iDisk, still, the on-rev account support ftp
access
and ftp supports chmoding. I find WebDAV a novel thing which I
never use.
Best go with FTP.
:D

As for uploading the engine file which I assume is the
executable renamed
to revolution
I was simply transferring it using the webdisk like I would move
files on
my hard drive.
What is the proper way to install it?
Is this on your On-Rev account?
If so, I don't believe you need to install the Rev CGI at all; it
should be
pre-installed, so all you'd need is the path to the engine, which
should be
described in your signup docs or online help for On-Rev.
If not, what is webdisk? If it's an FTP client, does it offer a
choice
between text and binary transfer modes?
I've seen some FTP clients read the first few bits of the Rev
engine, see
that it's ASCII, and try to use text mode, which will convert line
endings
which may be fine for text files but will break the engine, since
of course
the engine's object code is binary.
