VCD-db Installer
Welcome to VCD-db installation, v.
Congratulations with your copy of VCD-DB
Before we start there are few things that need to be done.
1) You must have a database access or the SQLite module enabled.
2) Create an empty database.
At the moment the following databases are supported
a) MySQL (3.x, 4.x and up)
b) Microsoft SQL (7, 2000 and 2005)
c) Postgres (7.x or 8.x)
d) IBM DB2 (7.2 and up)
e) Oracle 8, 9 or 10G
f) SQLite
3) Create a file called config.php in your VCD-db root folder
4) If your webserver is on a Win32 box this step is unnecessary, otherwise if your webserver is on a Unix/Linux box, you must have a Shell or FTP access to chmod some files and folders.
Open up a console session to your box and go to the directory where you extracted the VCD-db zip/tar file.
5) Now you are all set and ready to install. Press Continue to proceed. Attention! If you reload the page, you will reset the installation process!
Before the installation continues, VCD-db needs to verify the host environment.
Each procedure must return positive results for the installer to continue.
