1. Setup Database

Login to cPanel and create a new database.

• Login to your hosting cPanel and navigate go MySQL Databases
• Create database.
• Create user and set up user password.
• Add the user to the database by selecting the database and the username.
• Make sure you have checked All privileges when adding the user to the database.

2. Upload files to your server

(Option : 1) In the root folder (inside public_html or www)

• Upload the files to your server in the same location where public_html or www folder is located ( do not upload inside the public_html or www).
• The application comes with a folder called “public“. Open the folder and move all the files and folders  to public_html or www folder and then delete the public folder
• Now from your browser go to http://yourdomain.com/install

(Option : 2) In a sub folder

Let’s assume you have a folder called “crm” inside public_html or www on your server

• Upload the files to your server in the same location where the folder crm is located ( do not upload inside it).
• The application comes with a folder called “public“. Open the folder and move all the files and folders  to the crm folder and then delete the public folder
• Now from your browser go to http://yourdomain.com/crm/install

(Option : 3) In a sub domain directory

Let’s assume that you want your sub domain name to be called crm and you want to access the application using a url which will look something like this: http://crm.yourdomain.com.

• Create a folder called “crm” inside public_html or www on your server
• Upload the files to your server inside the folder crm 
• From your hosting cpanel go to the subdomain option and create a new sub domain.
  • Subdomain Name : Enter your subdomain name. (In this case, enter crm )
  • Document Root : Enter public_html/crm/public
  • Finally click create
• Now from your browser go to http://crm.yourdomain.com/install

   3. Finally Click on Connect Database
4. Click Install, if the installation is successful you will see a success message. If not it will provide a link to a file for you to download which will contain information about what went wrong.
