Friendika Installation
|
||||
|
||||
We've tried very hard to ensure that Friendika will run on commodity hosting
|
||||
platforms - such as those used to host Wordpress blogs and Drupal websites.
|
||||
But be aware that Friendika is more than a simple web application. It is a
|
||||
complex communications system which more closely resembles an email server
|
||||
than a web server. For reliability and performance, messages are delivered in
|
||||
the background and are queued for later delivery when sites are down. This
|
||||
kind of functionality requires a bit more of the host system than the typical
|
||||
blog. Not every PHP/MySQL hosting provider will be able to support Friendika.
|
||||
Many will. But please review the requirements and confirm these with your
|
||||
hosting provider prior to installation.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
1. Requirements

local .htaccess file

- At this time we require the installation to be at the top level of a
|
||||
domain or sub-domain (without an extra path). This requirement may change in
|
||||
the future.

reasonable price. If your hosting provider doesn't allow Unix shell access,

you might have trouble getting everything to work.]

2. Put this directory into the root of your web server document area.

2. Unpack the Friendika files into the root of your web server document area.
|
||||
|
||||
- If you copy the directory tree to your webserver, make sure
|
||||
that you also copy .htaccess - as "dot" files are often hidden
|
||||
and aren't normally copied.
|
||||
|
||||
- To use a subdirectory of your main domain, set the
|
||||
config variable $a->path to the relative subdir
|
||||
in .htconfig.php - for example to use http://example.com/test -
|
||||
use
|
||||
$a->path = 'test';
|
||||
3. Create an empty database and note the access details (hostname, username,
|
||||
password, database name).
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: This has NOT been fully tested!
|

In this case, you cannot use the web installer.

Skip step 4 and proceed to step 5 - especially steps 5a and 5b.
|

|

- Everything will work much better if you can dedicate a domain
|
||||
or subdomain so that you don't require an extra server path.
