Installation

First of course download the source at sourceforge. Then extract the content in a path on your webserver. Do not forget to check the a href="./requirements.html">requirements. PHPPapersDB need two additional directories: download and files. Make both directories also read and writeable (chmod 666).

Second set up your database. Edit the file config.php in the classes directory to fit your database. Then create the needed tables in the databse using the SQL which can be found in the file INSTALL.

Third check your installation. Run the script test.php through your web browser. It checks if everything is set correct. If not correct it. Once the script runs without problems your are set! Have fun.

At this stage there is no security check! If you want to secure your copy of PHPPapersDB please use something like .htaccess.
