Keld: Web Portal System =========================== Base Requirements ----------------- In order to setup Keld the folowing prerequisits are necessary. A Linux Box (http://www.linux.com) Installed and working properly. Apache Web Server (http://www.apache.org) PHP3 or PHP4 (mod_php) Apache module (http://www.php.net) MySQL database server (http://www.mysql.com) The above doesn't mean it work with other configurations, OS's, DB's etc, but we only provide INSTALL instructions for the above configuration. In fact Keld works under Windows (all), FreeBSD, OS/2, MacOS, etc. Set-up of these required packages is beyond the scope of this document and if you are unsure you should check with each of the appropriate web sites for further details. Installing the Package ---------------------- Unzip and Untar the package into the directory you want to use on you web server, if you're unsure where that is, ask you system administrator. tar -zxvf keld.tar.gz Change to the keld/ directory and there is a file called "keld.sql" this file contains the commands to build the database structure, tables and the default data. 1) Create a database called, for example, keld: mysqladmin create keld 2) Now fill the databases with the tables in keld.sql file: mysql nuke < keld.sql 3) In order for the news.txt and archive.txt file to be create, chmod the keld/ directory to 777. 4) That's it!... now you need to edit the file "variables.php" to set the database options. After that, point your browser to: http://yourdomain.com/keld/admin.php Login with the following data at the prompt: User: admin Password: setup Now click on "User Administration" to change your password and name. From here you can add more users, or edit existing users. ------------------------------ This install script is virtually an exact copy of the php-nuke install file, with a small amount of editing.
