DONATE:Installation Manual

Installing the DONATE project database on a personal PC.

NOTE: To setup the DONATE database on your system, you must have Xampp installed. If you need instructions on how to install Xampp, refer to this page: http://foss.unh.edu/opencomputing/index.php/XAMPP


 * 1) Install the Donate repository on your PC. I recommend installing it in the htdocs folder, found at C:\xampp\htdocs
 * 2) Run Xampp. In the control panel, make sure Apache and MySql are both running.
 * 3) Nagivate your browser to the DBInstall.php file. If your DONATE repository is in the htdocs folder, then the link will look like this: http://localhost/cis605-donate/db-control/dbInstall.php Your web browser should display messages indicating that all tables in the database have been successfully installed.
 * 4) Now run the DBInstallSandbox.php file. If your repository is in htdocs, the link will look like this: http://localhost/cis605-donate/db-control/dbInstallSandbox.php Your web browser should display messages indicating that at least 5 data entries per table have been entered.
 * 5) The Donate Repository has now been successfully installed with sample data.
