Installation

DOCKER

FROM SOURCE

1. Install the above mentioned requirements.

2. Download the source code to your computer

3. Change directory to the root folder of the application. Update composer then run it in order to install the application dependencies. You may need root permissions to update composer.

   composer self-update
   composer install

4. Update the application configuration files to suit your local settings:

• Set the "Application URL" in /app/config/app.php
• Create a database and set the database connection details in /app/config/database.php
• The organization name in /app/config/kblis.php

5. Run the migrations to create the required database tables.

   php artisan migrate

6. Load the basic seed data

   php artisan db:seed

   If #5 or #6 above fails, you may need to run the following command then repeat the two commands again.

   composer dumpautoload

7. If you are running the application on a webserver eg. apache, ensure that the webserver has write permissions to the /app/storage folder. Ideally the web-root should be the /public folder. The default login credentials are 'administrator' 'password'.

Troubleshooting

Ensure that you enable mod_rewrite, sudo a2enmod rewrite if you are using apache. This should solve the problem of routing failures.
