4) Ensure that your web server <strong>and</strong> database server are started.<br />

5) Point your browser <strong>to</strong> the URL http:///<strong>egroupware</strong>/setup<br />

6) The check <strong>install</strong> script should start au<strong>to</strong>matically.<br />

- Wait until the script is finished, then correct any errors that are shown<br />

- After fixing any errors, reload the page <strong>to</strong> check your <strong>install</strong>ation again<br />

- When there are no errors left, scroll down <strong>and</strong> click “Return <strong>to</strong> Setup”<br />

[WINDOWS] You may have a couple of things that do not resolve completely. For instance the<br />

register_globals = on setting in your PHP.ini file (Usually under C:\WINNT). Some scripts require this <strong>to</strong> be<br />

on <strong>and</strong> some require it <strong>to</strong> be off. If you turn it off – some of your Website may not work. The sure way <strong>to</strong><br />

find out is set it the way eGroupware recommends (off) <strong>and</strong> check your other Sites. If they cannot run,<br />

set it back <strong>to</strong> register_globals = on. Please notice: eGroupWare does not require this <strong>to</strong> be set <strong>to</strong> (off)!<br />

Also the MsSQL (Microsoft) database extension will not be loaded if you are using MySQL!<br />

With these conflicts resolved - now you can click “continue <strong>to</strong> the Header Admin”<br />

7) Start the Header Admin configuration.<br />

- Fill out all of the fields<br />

[WINDOWS] Server Root – This is the „root“ of your eGroupware <strong>install</strong>ation. ie:<br />

D:\websites\yourwebsite\<strong>egroupware</strong><br />

Include Root – make this the same ie: D:\websites\yourwebsite\eGroupWare<br />

(Please note: this is not your .com address, it is the actual direc<strong>to</strong>ry path <strong>to</strong> you eGroupWare <strong>install</strong>ation.<br />
