Client requirements

For using OpenHomeopath Javascript and Cookies (at least from the same site) have to be enabled in the browser.

• Screen resolution: 1280x1024 or more
• Browser: Chromium/Chrome, Opera and Firefox
• Operating system: tested under Linux, but should work also on other systems.

Server requirements

• MySQL from version 5.1
• PHP from PHP 5.3
• UTF-8 support.

Installation and configuration

1. Create a MySQL database and a user who has all rights for the database.
2. Rename the file "include/classes/db/config_db_sample.php" to "config_db.php" and edit it, providing the name of the MySQL database, the username and his password. Also you must choose the database driver: "mysqli" or "mysql".
   Protect the file "config_db.php" on the server against unauthorized read and write access (e.g. with chmod 600), because the password is saved in plain text. Please note, that the server still needs read access. Not necessary with a local installation.
3. Upload the whole folder to your webserver. This can also be your local computer or laptop.
4. Open "https://your.webaddress.org/install/install_db.php" in your browser and import the data to the database.
   If everything is fine you can delete the file "sql/OpenHomeopath.sql.gz" on your server.
5. The default user with administration rights is "admin" with the password: "admin". Log in as "admin" under "https://your.webaddress.org/login.php".
   This can take a while, because OpenHomeopath has to generate some more tables.
6. Here we go. I recommend to change the admin password.
