USING AND INSTALLING FreeRealty:
Download the newest FreeRealty. Unpack the file.
Create a new folder on your server.
Configure and set parameters (explained below).
Upload the contents of the zip file to your server.
Create and configure your mySQL tables (also explained below).
Highly recommended
- Remove configurator.sql, configurator.php, upgradeasaurus.php,
upgradeasaurus2.7.php, phpinfo.php, convert.php, convert.sql from the
admin folder.
That's it!
Alternative Installation
- Unpack the FreeRealty file directly on the server.
A release will unpack to a directory with the same name as the release ie FR-2.9-pre2 will be a folder named FR-2.9-pre2
- Rename the folder to something that makes sense for your site
- Make sure that you have a MySQL database with at least
- A user name
- A password
- Know what the table prefix is (if you have one)
- Run the install script to create your
common.php file.(If permissions are properly set)
- Run the configuration script
- If you are upgrading an older version of OpenRealty or FreeRealty use the upgrade scripts in /upgrades
Once everything is working like it should delete or move /install, install.php, /scripts and /upgrades from the web directory
REQUIRED TO RUN FreeRealty:
1. MySQL
2. PHP 4.0 (If you're curious about what version you have, run the phpinfo.php script which comes with this release)
3. Apache Web Server for Linux (Others may be possible, but have not been tested)
