REQUIREMENTS
=============
Oxwall Requires:
- Cron ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron )
For more detailed information about Oxwall requirements, including the list of necessary PHP

INSTALLATION
============
The latest Oxwall release can be found at http://www.oxwall.org/download . The main package is
available in zip format, which can be extracted using most compression tools.
a. FTP Upload
Extract Oxwall archive to a temporary directory and rename the unpacked folder to oxwall_x.y.z/;
Upload contents of oxwall_x.y.z/ into your site’s public directory (typically public_html/) using an
FTP client. Do not forget about .htaccess file.
b. Shell Mode
Enter following commands using a typical Unix/Linux command line to download and extract files:
wget http://www.oxwall.org/dl/ow_x.y.z.zip
unzip oxwall_x.y.z.zip
This will create a new directory oxwall_x.y.z/ containing all Oxwall files and directories. Enter
following command to move contents of this directory to your public HTML directory:
2. Create Database;
Oxwall stores all site information in a MySQL database, which means you must create this database
on your hosting and assign it a user with certain privileges, such as create/drop and modify tables.
Note the username, password, database name, and hostname given during the database creation,
since you will need it during the installation.
If you encounter problems creating the database, please contact your hosting provider for support
and specific instructions.
3. Run Installation;
ow_pluginfiles/
ow_userfiles/
ow_static/
ow_smarty/template_c
A notification will appear if this process fails. In this case set writable permissions recursively. For
instance, go to folder with Oxwall and enter the following command for ow_pluginfiles/ directory:
or
Use native tools of your FTP client to change permissions for selected folders.
During the installation you must manually replace contents of ow_includes/config.php file with the
code provided by the installation guide.
Many Oxwall features include tasks that will be run periodically, such as updating profile's online
status, processing memberships, mass mailing, importing data, etc. This is why it is strongly
recommended to setup Oxwall Cron Tasks immediately after the main installation.
As an example of how to setup this automated process, you can use the Unix/Linux crontab utility.
The following crontab line uses PHP command to execute the run.php file, and runs every minute
(recommended):
* * * * * /usr/local/bin/php /your/path/to/oxwall/ow_cron/run.php
where "/usr/local/bin/php" is the path to the PHP binary file. You may contact your hosting to
determine the exact path to the PHP binary file on your hosting.
