Installation procedure
If the full BGS CMS is installed by BG Svetionik team please disregard this section and jump to next section of this document.
Installation of BGS CMS requires installation package of BGS CMS, running Apache web server, support for PHP enabled and MySQL database running. It is required to have specific database already created. If such database does not exist on the server, system would try to create it automatically during the installation process although this feature is restricted in most of the cases due to security reasons on the hosting server. Therefore, having database already created is highly recommended. System will begin installation procedure and request database parameters to be provided. URL would be automatically recognized. If your server has enabled support for rewrite URL mode, it is recommended to enable “URL friendly” option during the installation. Debugging mode is recommended to be enabled in test environments – servers used for performance testing and debugging. In production environments, when hosting on public servers, this option should be disabled. If phpBB forum is enabled on the main site it is required to set a relative path to forum location in “forum_path” variable.
