The following applies to (( ReleaseOne))

Server Settings Checker

you can download a server settings checker here, upload it to your server and point your browser at it. this should give you an overview of your servers settings and will allow you to determine if bitweaver can be installed on the server:


Generic Requirements

bitweaver is written in PHP and thus requires PHP and a webserver such as Apache or IIS

Operation Systems Supported

basically any system that can run a webserver and a database. the most common ones include:
  • Linux
  • Windows
  • Mac

Databases Supported

you will need access to a table on either one of these databases

PHP Settings

The settings below are required by bitweaver to run. If any of these settings are not met, you will have to change these before you can continue with the installation process.

Required settings

Make sure that
  • PHP version is greater than 4.1.0.
    (Firebird installations require PHP5 for enhanced driver module).
  • zlib compression support is available.
  • the configuration file 'kernel/config_inc.php' is available and the file is writeable by web server.
  • the directories 'storage/' and 'temp/' are writeable too.

Recommended settings

The following are settings that aren't strictly required by bitweaver to run, but are recommendations.

However, bitweaver will still operate if your settings do not quite match those recommended.

Setting Should be
Memory Limit at least 16M
Safe Mode OFF
Display Errors ON
File Uploads ON
Magic Quotes GPC ON

Settings worth knowing about

The following settings are merely for your information and are meant to help you work out problems that might occur.
