Installation Guide

 

1) Please completely read the installation instructions before proceeding!
We have tried to make these instructions as simple as possible, but we recommend that the installation is done by someone very familiar with the Linux/ UNIX operating systems, the Linux / UNIX Security Model, installing and compiling packages, Apache, PHP, and MySQL.  The requirements for the program are the following:

1.1) System Requirements:

1.1.1 Server Requirements:

Unix/Linux: FreeBSD5.0 or later, recommended FreeBSD 6.2,you can get the latest stable version on ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ ,depends on your CPU type, you should select the correct version which is suitable for your CPU.
Apache: Apache 1.3.28 or later for UNIX, recommend 2.0.59 version. You can download the correct version from http://www.apache.org/.
PHP: 4.0 or greater for UNIX, recommend 5.2.3 version. You can download the correct version fromhttp://www.php.net.

2) Components Installation:
About installing and troubleshooting of Apache PHP, MySQL, Linux/UNIX, please refer the corresponding sites from above. You can find sufficient information about the procedure.   

3) System Parameters:
Modify the following parameters in the php.ini file as your MYSQL database:

['servername'] = 'localhost';

['username'] = 'root';

['password'] = '';

['dbname'] = 'Nebula’;

 

4) Database Installation:

Import the dump file into MySQL by typing all the following on single line at the shell prompt:

mysql -p -h DBSERVER dbname < dbname.sql

The above steps based on the assumption that your database name on our system is "dbname" and the dumping file that you uploaded was named "dbname.sql". Replace those with your correct database name and dumping file filename. Also replace DBSERVER with correct database server name.

5) Program Installation:
Simply navigate to your systems http directory, usually at /var/www/html and create a directory called "Nebula"
Now, copy all of the files in the "iainternet" directory from the distribution to the newly created " Nebula " directory.

After this is done, go to the ./ Nebula /include/ directory and modify the "config.php" directory with your system settings. If you are running the database locally, please use the setting "localhost" instead of the "127.0.0.1" IP address where it asks for the database location.

Installation is complete! You can now begin customizing your software!
