[Answered] Question about apps


Recommended Posts

I have a question about installing apps on my site. If I want to install an app like phpbb to a different directory instead of the root directory, how would I do that. Would I have to create the directory first?

I will see what I can help with, but just as a foreshadowing, installing apps to the root directory will cause them not to be seen or used by anyone. You are gonna wanna make sure its installed/unpacked in httpdocs or a subdirectory in httpdocs and then go to your website or website plus the directory you created to get the install process started. I usually create the database with user and password, copy that down first before i upload anything and then proceed with installation.

It looks like you managed to install phpbb to httpdocs/forums/ so I guess you answered your own question. Let us know if you need help with anything else.
