[edit] Installation
To be able to install successfully you need a webserver with:
- PHP >= version 5
- the GD Library
- MySQL >= version 5.
You will need the PHP Zip and Xml extensions in order to use the automatic update system.
After you have unpacked the files in the archive to your installation path, point your browser to the install (i.e. http://kb.example.com/kb/install ) folder and follow the steps provided.
You need to set some special rights on some of the folders:
- The cache directory needs to be writable by the user that the webserver runs as. Setting it to be world writable (mode 777 on unix - "chmod -R 777 cache") will work fine.
