    Hello,

    I am installing a php application to my server and in the installtion instructions there is some thing i could understand, can anybody help me please.

    here is the instructions:


    Step #3.
    -----------------------------------------------
    Database Management & Configuration
    -----------------------------------------------

    a. Go to the url http://www.yourservername.com/admin/install.php file in web browser.

    It asks for the following details :
    -------------------------------
    i. Base_url,
    ii Base_path,
    iii Database name,
    iv Database username,
    v Database password,
    vi Table prefix - Leave blank if not sharing a MySQL database.

    Now the required Tables will be created and configured automatically.

    Step #4.

    a. Set a cron job for the file 'realmailer.php' for every minite.
    b. Set a cron job for the file 'weekmailer.php' for every Sunday 00.01 AM.

    ['dbtype'] = "mysql";
    ['dbhost'] = "localhost";
    ['dbname'] = "dotproject";
    ['dbuser'] = "root";
    ['dbpass'] = "pass";
    ['dbpersist'] = false;
    ['root_dir'] = "/var/www/html/project";
    ['base_url'] = "/var/www/html/project";

    or

    /home/your name/public_html/

    if you don't know

    paste on notepad

    save as - test.php Then upload on your root dir

    little down u can see - Apache Environment

    DOCUMENT_ROOT
    SCRIPT_FILENAME
