Quick start

Requirements

• PHP 5 >= 5.5.0
• with php_gettext extension

• older PHP will work with https://github.com/ircmaxell/password_compat
• MySQL
• Web server
• most features currently require a Linux machine (ping, traceroute)
• basic features work on Windows

Installation on Apache

1. Have some *AMPP installation ready (I used AMPPS on Windows)
2. Set up database with INSTALL.sql
3. chmod the /path/to/Runtime/tmp folder to be writable --IMPORTANT
4. Modify db.php to have your server and user details.
5. Enable php_gettext if not already enabled.
6. Optional: Enable php_intl if you want translations. Then change setlocale(LC_ALL, $lang); to LC_MESSAGES in index.i18n.php
7. Set timezone in PHP with date.timezone if not already set.
8. Set up a cron schedule for cron.php
9. You can modify how fast the re-checks happen in cron.php
10. Verify your SMTP or mail() settings for alerts.
11. It's done.
