Important [SOLVED] uddeIM 2.3 won't install

As suggested from many users, today I've decided to install uddeIM on my Kunena 1.6.4 running on Joomla 1.5.23.
I've examinated all of the readme, and all of the enormous PDF manual attached to the zipped uddeIM file.

So, excited like a child, I have started the installation of the component (com_uddeim.zip) using the Joomla installer. But... here the first stop
I've got this message:

There was an error uploading this file to the server.

So, I've checked again the PDF document and examinated all of the problem cominf from the FTP layer. After a post-universitary course about file permissions, I was more confused then before...
But I have understood the I must change the FTP layer options (I think..). So I have gone in the global configuration panel of Joomla and I have found the "Enable FTP" option disabled (I have never touched this setting before). So, I have enable the FTP and I have gone back to the Joomla installation manager.

After setting my administrator credential, I have again selected the com_uddeim.zip for installation. After pressing the "Upload & install" button I've got the message of installation success, but... but.. I've got also this two error messages together with it:

JFTP::connect: Could not connect to host "127.0.0.1" on port 21
JClientHelper::setCredentialsFromRequest failed

So, I'm blocked again... .I have checked the list of components and there is no uddeIM component installed (even if I've got the success message). I have set the "enable FTP" option back to the false value.

What I must do now? Any idea?

Hello,

Start if you can by increase the max file upload in your php.ini, actually you have only 2 MB which is a bit low.

mmmh... that's a good idea! Maybe this could be the reason!
where is located the php.ini file you are referring to?

Scanning the "Php information" tab coming from the "System info" menu, I have found thei path for the php.ini file:

/etc/php53.ini.d/

but I cannot access to the etc/ directory using the CPanel... I'm blocked again...

Did you unzip the uddeIM installation files first? Did you then install each of the parts that you needed, one by one, as the uddeIM installation guide shows you? Ultimately, installing uddeIM is not really the business of this website and, if you have problems with installing uddeIM, you should take them up with the author of uddeIM.

Hello magic Sozzled!

Yes, I have unzipped the file first (in my post I'm referring the com_uddeim.zip file only).
But I strongly suspect that the problem are the PHP settings. The com_uddeim.zip is larger than 2Mb (2108978 bytes on my Linux system).

I've read somewhere that I could create a php.ini file in my public_html to ovveride/change default settings. Is this true?
I'm using not a my own computer, but a shared one on a server-provider. So, the etc/directory is forbidden for me...
