Chapter 1:  Installation

In this chapter:


1.3: Directory Structure

Before you run the installer on your server and complete the installation process, you need to create and set permissions on the directories you specified during step one of the instalation.

Below is a diagram of the default directory structure.

Whether you chose to keep this structure when you provided the paths to these directories, or specified new paths, it is now time to create these directories.

If you have telnet access, type:

mkdir directory (directory being the name of the directory you wish to create.  i.e.- mkdir templates)

If you do not have telnet access, use your FTP program to create these directories.

If you have telnet access, type:

chmod 777 directory (directory being the name of the directory you wish to set permissions on.  i.e.- chmod 777 templates)

If you do not have telnet access, use your FTP program to set permissions on these directories.

With your directories created, you are ready to run the installer on your site and complete the installation process.
