Requirements B0x1A1

• PHP installed webserver 5.3+
• MySQL database

Installation B0x1A1

1. Copy the all files to your server. For general xampp or mamp there is a htdocs folder. Create a folder named ‘engaged’ and copy all files there. If you install to your local webserver, at the end you should access to you Engaged app from http://127.0.0.1/engaged. Don’t try to access it now. Installation is not finished yet :)
2. You have to first change permissions of App/tmp folder and it’s subfolders. If you receive App/tmp/cache/persistent error, just create that folder. Also change the permissions for App/webroot/img folders. (Unix: Chmod 777) (Windows: I don’t know)
3. On your MySQL database, create a database called engaged. Import engaged.sql file in the db folder.
4. Change App/Config/database.php like:

public $default = array(
    'datasource' => 'Database/Mysql',
    'persistent' => false,
    'host' => 'YOURHOSTNAME',
    'login' => 'YOURUSERNAME',
    'password' => 'DATABASEPASSWORD',
    'database' => 'engaged',
    'prefix' => '',
    //'encoding' => 'utf8',
);

public $authake = array(
    'datasource' => 'Database/Mysql',
    'persistent' => false,
    'host' => 'YOURHOSTNAME',
    'login' => 'YOURUSERNAME',
    'password' => 'DATABASEPASSWORD',
    'database' => 'engaged',
    'prefix' => '',
    //'encoding' => 'utf8',
);

1. After you change the database config, you can access http://127.0.0.1/engaged. A wild installation form will appear. Simply change that as you want and you are ready!
