NEW INSTALLATION OF CE PHOENIX
This how we have installed CE Phoenix on our host server with success.
Some actions will depend on host server - host servers may slightly differ.
You will need some software freely available to download from the internet :
- FTP (file transfer) software to connect to your host server and transfer files between your computer and your host server.
- File editing software to edit .php files.
See Must Have Tools for details.
INSTALL
NOTE: Ensure domain name, host account, SSL certificate and database have been created.
- Open FTP software e.g. FileZilla - connect to host server using FTP Server Address, FTP Username and FTP Password - ask your host server if you cannot find these details in your account
- After connecting with Filezilla for example you will see this:
- In right window pane, this is the host server, double click htdocs to open root folder/directory - dependent on server may be named public_html or httpdocs
- NOTE: This procedure installs Phoenix in the root folder/directory so the website home page will show as
yoursite.com/index.phpin the web browser. - Some users may wish to install in a sub-folder/directory so the website home page will show as
yoursite.com/yoursubdirectory/index.phpin the web browser. - If this is required a sub-folder/directory must be created in htdocs, named and opened before the next step.
- NOTE: This procedure installs Phoenix in the root folder/directory so the website home page will show as
- In left window pane, this is your local computer, navigate to and open the unzipped/extracted Phoenix folder/directory.
- Select all folders and files in unzipped Phoenix folder/directory. Ensure you have them all selected and have not missed any.
- Right click and click Upload to transfer all files from your computer to the host server.
- FTP software will indicate progress - it can take several minutes to complete transfer.
Proceed to the next step when the FTP software indicates the upload is complete.
