Default How To: Invision Power Board [IPB] installation Guide

Hello All,

Below mentioned are the steps to install IPB on the website:

Step 1: Setup Database:

Need to create MySQL Database with require username and password details.

Step 2: Download, uncompress and upload files:

One can download and uncompress the distribution file of the application on your local computer and upload all the files in the folder where one would like the board installed. One should make sure that they show in the directory in which you would like to install the forum.

Step 3: IPB Installation Process:

Open the browser and navigate to the directory with the installation files. The address bar should be as under:

http://yourdomainname.com/forum/install/index.php

- One should click [Next] to proceed to the next page. Here one has to read and agree to the license agreement.
- When ready, click on [Next]. One will be taken to the address details page. Normally the installation detects the settings automatically and one would not have to change anything here.
- Click [Next] to proceed to the database details page.
- In the fields for database name, SQL username and password one should enter the MySQL database, username and password which one created during the database setup. One can leave the table prefix to the default IPB or change it to desired preference. One can also leave the table type to the default MYISAM. When done, click [Next].
- On the next page you should fill in the details for the administrative contact. Click [Next].
- You are now ready to complete the installation. Click on start installation to proceed.
- In the final step of the installation process will be automatically redirected through a series of screens. When done, click next.
- On the last screen one can see a note "Installation complete!" means one have successfully installed IPB forum software! Now one can set desired configuration from the admin part of the forum.

Thanks,

Shane G.
