| 63 | <h1>Installation Instructions</h1>
|
| 64 |
|
| 65 | <p>Code Igniter is installed in four steps:</p>
|
| 66 |
|
| 67 | <ol>
|
| 68 | <li>Unzip the package.</li>
|
| 69 | <li>Upload the Code Igniter folders and files to your server. Normally the index.php file will be at your root.</li>
|
| 70 | <li>Open the <dfn>application/config/config.php</dfn> file with a text editor and set your base URL.</li>
|
| 71 | <li>If you intend to use a database, open the <dfn>application/config/database.php</dfn> file with a text editor and set your database settings.</li>
|
| 72 | </ol>
|
| 73 |
|
| 74 | <p>If you wish to increase security by hiding the location of your Code Igniter files you can rename the <dfn>system</dfn> folder
|
| 75 | to something more private. If you do rename it, you must open your main <kbd>index.php</kbd> file and set the <samp>$system_folder</samp>
|
| 76 | variable at the top of the page with the new name you've chosen.</p>
|
| 77 |
|
| 78 | <p>That's it!</p>
|
| 79 |
|
| 80 | <p>If you're new to Code Igniter, please read the <a href="../general/index.html">Getting Started</a> section of the User Guide to begin learning how
|
| 81 | to build dynamic PHP applications. Enjoy!</p>
|
| 82 |
|
| 83 | <h2>Troubleshooting</h2>
|
| 84 |
|
| 85 | <p>If you find that no matter what you put in your URL only your default page is loading, it might be that your server
|
| 86 | does not support the PATH_INFO variable needed to serve search-engine friendly URLs.
|
| 87 |
|
| 88 | As a first step, open your <dfn>application/config/config.php</dfn> file and look for the <kbd>URI Protocol</kbd>
|
| 89 | information. It will recommend that you try a couple alternate settings. If it still doesn't work after you've tried this you'll need
|
| 90 | to force Code Igniter to add a question mark to your URLs. To do this open your <kbd>application/config/config.php</kbd> file and change this:</p>
|
| 91 |
|
| 92 | <code>$config['index_page'] = "index.php";</code>
|
| 93 |
|
| 94 | <p>To this:</p>
|
| 95 |
|
| 96 | <code>$config['index_page'] = "index.php?";</code>
|
| 97 |
