I suggest you use PHP 7.2 or 7.3 for phpvms v7

Since you don't have SSH available on your host, you will need to use Composer locally and then upload all the files to your server (host).

Be aware that phpVMS 7 is still in Beta and probably shouldn't be used for a live (production) site.

If you decide to go with phpvms 5 - I would suggest version 5.5.2.72 (this is the Simpilot version updated to work with php 7.2) - use php 7.2 as it won't work in php 7.3. There is a link to it in the phpVMS Classic Support forum.

I think the curl install has to be done by your host. I would contact your host and ask them about it.

It is my understanding that phpVMS 7 doesn't have the typical install like prior versions. You should be able to go directly to the sub-folder it's installed in and run it from there - the page you showed is how it's supposed to look (plus the images) and the install is done directly from there.

Also - do NOT install in public_html - put the files in a sub-folder of public_html. This will allow you to easily have multiple installs (if desired), have forum software installed in its own folder and keep everything organized and not all mixed together.

Additionally, having each program in a separate sub-folder under public_html will easily allow you to have a different version of PHP in use for each sub-folder if required by the program installed.

/public_html
/public_html/phpvms7
/public_html/forum
/public_html/phpvms5.5.2.72
/public_html/whatever......
