Installation on Windows 10 XAMPP

Unread post by janlin1975 »

Dear Esteemed nuBuilders,

Is there a link where there is an installation tutorial? The wiki documentation as below on installation, doesnt seem to give me enough direction.

Installing nuBuilder Forte

To get nuBuilder Forte up and running you'll need to do 4 things...

Copy nuBuilder Forte files into a directory on your server.
Create a new MySQL or Maria DB database.
Import nubuilder4.sql into the new database.
Update the following variables in nuconfig.php...


nuConfigDBHost
nuConfigDBName
nuConfigDBUser
nuConfigDBPassword
nuConfigDBGlobeadminUsername - globeadmin username
nuConfigDBGlobeadminPassword - globeadmin password
nuConfigTitle
nuConfigIsDemo

eg.

I would have thought that i will need to drag some files to htdocs in xampp. But i dont even know how to proceed without a tutorial.

Hi,

The user cypherinfo created a video tutorial but unfortunately, it's not available anymore.
(The Admin might have a copy "I give you for free to make it available for the nuBuilder Forte community in the youtube related channel. If so, please inform me.")

The following steps would have to be carried out. Let me know if you need more details

- Under your XAMPP\htdocs folder, create a subfolder and put all the nuBuilder files there, e.g. C:\xampp\htdocs\nuBuilder4
- Edit nuconfig.php. A Basic configuration could look like this:

Code: Select all

    $nuConfigDBHost                 = "127.0.0.1";
    $nuConfigDBName                 = "nubuilder4";
    $nuConfigDBUser                 = "root";
    $nuConfigDBPassword             = "";
    $nuConfigDBGlobeadminUsername   = "globeadmin";     //-- globeadmin username
    $nuConfigDBGlobeadminPassword   = "nu";             //-- globeadmin password
    $nuConfigTitle                  = "nuBuilder 4";
    $nuConfigIsDemo                 = false;
- In the XAMPP control panel, start the modules Apache and MySQL

- Click the admin button to launch phpmyadmin

- Create a new Database (e.g. nuBuilder4)

- Import nubuilder4.sql


Please note that nuBuilder does not run with the latest XAMPP versions. 5.6.35 / PHP 5.6.35 works all fine, not sure about 7.0.29 / PHP 7.0.29 though.
