Check first the installation requirements. Here’s a quick step-by-step guide of the installation process:
- Download and unzip the OSClass package.
- Move the OSClass unzipped files to the desired location on your server.
- Execute the OSClass installation script by accessing index.php or oc-includes/osclass/install.php from your browser:
- If you’ve installed it in the domain’s root directory, you’ll have to go to: http://example.com/index.php or directly to http://example.com/oc-includes/osclass/install.php
- If you’ve installed it in a subdirectory inside the domain, classifieds, for example, go to: http://example.com/clasificados/index.php or directly to http://example.com/clasificados/oc-includes/osclass/install.php
- Follow the installer’s instructions:
- Step 1: Make sure the server has the required permissions to write in the files and directories specified. This will allow you to create a basic configuration file as well as upload images, documents, etc.
- Step 2: Add your access details to the database. If you haven’t created it yet, the installer will ask for another account with permissions that allows it to do it for you.
- Step 3: Add the basic installation details and select your classfieds site’s reach: international, local, regional…
- Step 4: Choose the categories you want to use on your site. If you don’t select a category, you’ll have to add it later from your admin panel.
- Step 5: Your installation is finished! Use the automatically generated password to access your admin panel (/oc-admin).
