Also jungs, hier gibt boonex Hilfestellung bei einer Installation mit htaccess:::


Things To Know Before You start ¶

Before you start the install, there are a few things you need to have and do.

* Access to your web server (via shell or FTP): you should learn your shell or FTP account requisites from your hosting provider

* Access to your MySQL Database Management System: this is usually phpMyAdmin which can be accessed via your host's Control Panel or separately from that

* Access to your Web server Management Interface: this is usually CPanel or shell (for experienced users)

* Your web browser of choice

Things You Need to Do For The Installation ¶

Begin your installation by:

* Check to ensure that you and your web host has the minimum requirements to install and run Dolphin.

* Download the latest release of Dolphin.

* Unzip the downloaded file to a folder on your local hard drive.

* Make sure you have set appropriate PHP settings for uploading media files.

a) If PHP on your server is running in CGI mode, you need to create a php.ini file with the following contents:

register_globals=Off
magic_quotes_gpc=On
allow_url_include=Off
upload_max_filesize=300M
post_max_size=300M
max_input_time=3000
max_execution_time=3000
memory_limit=128M
short_open_tag=On


Then copy this file to every subfolder of Dolphin directory except for the following folders:

* orca/xml/langs

* ray/modules/*/skins

* ray/modules/*/langs

where * stands for every subfolder of the ray/modules folder

b) If PHP on your server is running as Apache module, place this code in the .htaccess file which resides in the main Dolphin directory:

php_flag register_globals Off
php_flag magic_quotes_gpc On
php_flag allow_url_include Off
php_value upload_max_filesize 300M
php_value post_max_size 300M
php_value max_input_time 3000
php_value max_execution_time 3000
php_value memory_limit 128M
php_value short_open_tag On


* You can also change some MySQL settings to prevent connection timeouts when uploading big files: Insert the following commands

mysql_query ("SET @@local.wait_timeout=9000;");
mysql_query ("SET @@wait_timeout=9000;");
mysql_query ("SET @@local.interactive_timeout=9000;");
mysql_query ("SET @@interactive_timeout=9000;");
mysql_query ("SET @@local.connect_timeout=9000;");
mysql_query ("SET @@connect_timeout=9000;");


after the line:

@mysql_select_db($this->sDb, $this->rLink);


in the ray/modules/global/inc/db.inc.php file and after the line:

$this->link = @mysql_pconnect( $this->host . $this->port . $this->sock, $this->user, $this->passwd );


in the inc/db.inc.php file.

If everything is fine with the above mentioned issues let's proceed with installation.
