Installing a new tiki version from scratch | |
|
Create a database | |
VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: From version 1.6 after unpacking the files and creating the database just point your browser to tiki-install.php, the script will install Tiki.
And then run the tiki.sql script that creates and initializes the tables.

(assuming the user will be tikiuser with tikipassword as password)
Now point your browser to http://yoursite.com/something/tiki/tiki-index_raw.php and you should see some page displaying an error message since you won t have permission to access any feature yet. If you see a page generated by Tiki then congratulations, you have successfully installed Tiki. |
Upgrading the database | |
If you want to add 0.9 to 1.0 without losing your data upgrade first 0.9 to 0.95 and then 0.95 to 1.0 using the ad-hoc .sql files. etc.
|
Final database configuration | |
Now you can edit the file db/tiki-db.php and setup your databasename, host, user and password for the database. You may need to contact your system administrator or ISP to know what databasename, user and password you can use. |
