 Print this Topic Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Steps for Installing the program:

 

Now that all the files are on your server inside the new /locator directory and you have the proper read/write permissions on the files and folders that need them, you are ready to begin the real installation/configuration of the locator system.

 

You need to launch the installation script by pointing your browser to your install.php file on your server.  Open your browser and type in your URL to your install.php file.

 

i.e.: http://www.mysite.com/locator/admin/install/index.php

 

Of course, you need to replace the mysite.com above with your real domain.

 

You will be asked a series of questions in order to setup the locator properly.  Please follow the instructions on each screen.  In order to complete this installation script, you will need to supply your mysql database info on Step 3.  Be sure you have already setup a new database and have the hostname, database name, username and password.  This info is needed.
