My friend has decided he wants to build a web site and wants to use PHPnuke (he downloaded the lastest version 5.6). He uploaded all the files to his host (hi-vim or high-vim I think there called)and set about installing it but he hit a problem right away, he doesn't know how to install a database, he followed these instructions:
Change to the /sql/ directory and there is a file called "nuke.sql"
this file contains the commands to build the database structure,
tables and the default data.
1) Create a database called, for example, nuke:
mysqladmin create nuke
2) Now fill the databases with the tables in nuke.sql file:
mysql nuke < nuke.sql
3) In order to use the File Manager, please be sure to chmod 666 ALL
files and 777 ALL directories. NOTE: know that doing this can have some
security issues.
but it made no sense at all to him so he asked me but I've never used any of the stuff needed and haven't a clue whats he's tring to do but I told him I would ask here to see if any of you ppl knew what to do or the location of a simple guide to installing this program (idiot proff would be best
)
Well I hope someone can help him out, as he wants to do this himself and not pay for someone else to do it as he wants to do everything himself (its his first site)
well thanks in advance......
