Prerequisites

== System Requirements == You need:

• A Webserver that is capable of handling PHP scripts (i.e Apache HTTPD Server)
• PHP 5.1.0 or newer with the following extensions
  • PCRE Extension
  • Session handling enabled
  • MySQL Extension
  • GD Extension
  • IMAP Extension (c-client imap library)
  • gettext support if you want to use localization
• An SMTP and POP Server for email support
• MySQL Database Server (you can get it from the MySQL Download page)

 -Eventum 2.0.1 may give an SQL syntax error for using 'DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8' with MySQL 4.0.18, The installation worked fine for me on a machine running MySQL 5.0.21

Checking PHP Requirements

If a requirement is missing from your PHP installation, Eventum will output information about those missing modules. You can also check using one of the following methods:

Via the Command Line

Type this command as any user:

php -m | egrep -i '(gd|imap|mysql|pcre|session)'

NOTE: If your system has multiple PHP installations, be sure to use the complete path to the same php binary that is used by your web server.

Via the Web

To see if your webserver handles PHP scripts and meets the requirements from above, just place a file with the extension '.php' somewhere in your webspace and put the following content into it:

Open that file in your browser. If PHP is installed on your webserver you will see information about configuration and extensions installed together with PHP.
