Instructions

When this installation script runs for the first time . . .

after entering and testing the required data, it will install the calendar(s) with the specified name and title.

After successful installation:

the LuxCal version number, the database credentials and the name of the default calendar are stored in the file lcconfig.php in the calendar root folder
the default calendar settings are stored in the database table settings
an administrator user account is created with the specified Administrator credentials

When you launch this installation script a subsequent time . . .

it will list the installed calendar(s) (name/title pairs) and will offer the possibility to create more calendars and to change the database and administrator data.

When saving the data:

specified calendars will be created if not present already
the calendar tables will be checked and missing tables will be created
the configuration data in the file lcconfig.php will be updated
the Administrator credentials are saved/updated in the users table of each calendar

Note: The administrator credentials can be changed later by the calendar administrator for each individual calendar.

Description of form fields:

Database server, username, password and database name

The database server is the name of the database server and could for example be 'localhost'. The username, password and database name are the values used when you created the database on the server. If the entered values are incorrect, the installation script cannot create the calendar tables and the installation will fail.

New to install calendar(s)

Calendar name/title pairs (format: 'name = title', one per line) of new calendars to be created. The initially proposed calendar name = title pair is 'mycal = is My Web Calendar'. If multiple calendars are installed, then - when starting a calendar - the calendar name is used to select a specific calendar.

The calendar name may contain maximum 20 of the following characters: a-z, 0-9 and -.

Default calendar

The name of the default calendar. In case of multiple calendars, this will be the default calendar when no explicit calendar is selected. The specified name must be present in the New to install or in the Installed calendar list.

Installed calendar(s)

List with the currently installed calendars in the specified database folder

Administrator Name, Email and Password

These values must be remembered as they are required later to log in to the calendar. When, in case of multiple calendars, the administrator name, email or password are changed, the values will be changed for all calendars.
