Need a guide to getting pspell working

Unread post by RooMeat »

Hi guys.
I am wanting to get pspell / aspell working on my server to be able to take advantage of a spellchecker built into a forum package.

I have both pspell and aspell installed (or so it seems) but the forum tells me the server does not appear to have it.

I also read somewhere that it need a dictionary??

Can someone give me a step by step to getting this running.

Thanks.
RooMeat

since it is a php extension/module you will need to configure php.ini and after that restart apache.
have you done that?
if anybody can help you than some more details would be good.
what errors do you get. logs etc.
have you tried this:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/pspell.setup.php

Once you installed any module like aspell with rpm, then no need to define --with-pspell=dir or --with-pspell.

Thanks Scott. I ran that it it completed without a problem. Is that all I need to do??
I went back in to the forum package but it still shows:

Enable spell checking. You MUST have the pspell library installed on your server and your PHP configuration set up to use the pspell library. Your server DOES NOT appear to have this set up.
