Elgg is a social networking framework. It provides the necessary functionality to allow you to run your own social networking site, whether publicly (like Facebook) or internally on a networked intranet (like Microsoft Sharepoint). Installing Elgg Before you begin, make sure you have read Elgg's.

If you discover problems after following these instructions, check out the page. For detailed, step-by-step instructions for different types of local server environments (could be your home computer), see the operating specific instructions at the bottom of the page. Upload Elgg • Download the to your computer and then unzip it. • On the webserver, you can store elgg in one of two ways: • In its own directory (i.e. /home/www/elgg) • In the document root (i.e. /home/www) • Upload the files with an FTP client to your web server.

Click on Next, now the install will ask for folder that contains php.exe file. By defaul the install will do this for you, however if you need, php.exe is located in C: xampp php. Click on install to finish setting up Composer. After the installation is finished, you must enable (php_intl.dll) in php.ini.

Create a data folder Elgg needs a special folder to store uploaded files including profile icons and photos. You will need to create this directory. We recommend that this folder be called 'data'.

For security reasons, this folder must be stored outside of your document root. For example, if Elgg is installed in: /home/www/elgg/ You might want to create the data folder in: /home/www/data Alternately, if Elgg is installed in: /home/username/public_html/ then you may want to create it in: /home/username/data/ Once this folder has been created, you'll need to make sure the web server Elgg is running on has permission to write to and create directories in it. This shouldn't be a problem on Windows-based servers, but if your server runs Linux, Mac OS X or a UNIX variant, you'll need to. If you are using a graphical FTP client to upload files, you can usually set permissions by right clicking on the folder and selecting 'properties' or 'Get Info'. NOTE: Setting your data directory to 777 will work, but it is insecure and is not recommended.

If you are unsure how to correctly set permissions, read or contact your host for more information. Create a MySQL database Using your database administration tool of choice (if you're unsure about this, ask your system administrator), create a new MySQL database for Elgg.

You can create a MySQL database with any of the following tools: • • • Make sure you add a user to the database with all privileges and record the database name, username and password. You will need this information when installing Elgg. Visit your Elgg site Once you've performed these steps, visit your Elgg site in your web browser.

Elgg will take you through the rest of the installation process from there. The first account that you create at the end of the installation process will be an administrator account.

A note on settings.php and.htaccess The Elgg installer will try and create two files for you: • engine/settings.php, which contains the database settings for your installation •.htaccess, which allows Elgg to generate dynamic URLs If these files can't be automatically generated, for example because the web server doesn't have write permissions in the directories, Elgg will tell you how to create them. You could also temporarily change the permissions on the root directory and the engine directory. Set the permissions on those two directories so that the web server can write those two files, complete the install process, and them change the permissions back to their original settings. If, for some reason, this won't work, you will need to: • Copy engine/settings.example.php to engine/settings.php, open it up in a text editor and fill in your database details • Copy /htaccess_dist to /.htaccess Note for installation on a virtual host (e.g. Rackspace, Amazon EC2) For installation to proceed successfully, modify the.htaccess file in the root, and uncomment: 117: #RewriteBase / To be: 117: RewriteBase / XAMPP Installation for Windows • If you want to test your Elgg installation on your local computer running Windows • Best run as a development/test server 1 - Download and install XAMPP to your computer from - we'll assume you installed it on the C drive 2 - Once the installation is completed, it will prompt you to start the XAMPP controller panel. Leave it for now.
