Instalación de LinPHA

Configurar el tipo de acceso a la Base de Datos

SI !
Tengo acceso completo a MySQL, y estoy autorizado para crear nuevas
bases de datos y nuevos usuarios. En otras palabras: Este es mi servidor! TOC

If you are going to install LinPHA at your Home-PC or a so called "root-server" on the internet, this is the option to choose. You also need full access rights to a SQL database server to create a new linpha user.

NO !
Voy a instalar LinPHA con acceso limitado a la base de datos
MySQL. Mi ISP no permite la creación de nuevas bases de datos ni nuevos usuarios. TOC

If you are going to install LinPHA somewhere on the internet, this is the option to choose. Most internetproviders do not allow full access to the SQL database.

Por favor seleccione el tipo de base de datos TOC

Some notes about the different supported Databases:
MySQL database: To continue, you need to have a root password (set) for your MySQL database. Please see the LinPHA FAQ for more details.

PostgreSQL database: Other than MySQL LinPHA will not create the DB itself for you. Therefore you need to run createdb linpha from the command line to create a new database called "linpha" before you continue. The rest is similar to the MySQL installation without the need of having a password set for your DB.
For all RDBMS make sure that there is PHP support for your DB!!!!

Miscellaneous Help

Archive applications TOC

Additional applications to create archives or extract files can be defined in the file linpha/include/archiver.config.php.

Note: These applications cannot be installed in directories which contains spaces! If you want to use a program which is installed in C:/Program Files/... you have to use C:/Progra~1/...
Alternatively you can install the program in another directory OR you can add the directory to the PATH variable, this will work too.

Another reason why your application doesn't appear in the select box: safe_mode or open_basedir restrictions. If possible, disable safe_mode or open_basedir, or use the programs which are in the allowed paths of safe_mode or open_basedir.
