[Guide] How to setup debbo v4 + CMS!

[reetscheter]

Hi everybody,
This is a tutorial on how to setup a debbo v4 oldskool hotel with a site ( I call it a cms because cms sounds cooler)! I may add screenies later if really much people like this tutorial.
Some pics of the site:




This tutorial is for Humans, smart Primates & Dolphins only (oh and aliens)If you arent one of these. please leave.



What you need:
- A good working brain.
-horramp (better than xampp but xampp is fine too)
-Zabboweb
-mirror 2(zabboweb)
-debbo v4
-ODBC(MySQL Connector)


Step 1:
Download Debbo V4 FIXED from MediaFire and extract it to desktop.Then,download horramp.

Step 2:
Install Horramp and open the control panel.
Start Apache and MySQL.Also,install ODBC Driver.

Step 3:
Go to PHPmyAdmin and create a database named debbosql.

Step 4:
Click on the tab 'Import' after you have created the database.Upload debbosql.sql after extracting Debbo V4 FIXED.

Step 5:
Open Debbo V4.You will be asked for your hotel name and some other things for setup.Then,Debbo V4 will close after you have done all that.

Step 6:
Then,go to MySQL configuration.Fill up all those things there.DO NOT CHANGE debbosql.sql.Then,Click test connection.After the connection is correct,Debbo V4 will close.

Step 7:
Open Debbo V4 again and change all the settings in it all you want.REMEMBER!DO NOT MINIMOZE HORRAMP INTO THE SMALL ICON.JUST MINIMIZE IT ON YOUR TASKBAR.

THIS IS ALL OPTIONAL YOU ALREADY HAVE A DEBBO SERVER RIGHT NOW!
USE THIS ONLY IF YOU WANT A CMS LIKE SITE!

Step 8:
You have now created a debbo v4 server but we want more!
Open zabboweb-v0.2.1.zip and extract it to your htdocs folder located at C:/xampp/htdocs

Step 9:
Delete the debbosql database that you have just imported and replace it with mysql.sql located in zabboweb/install/mysql.sql
or just delete the tables and import the databse in debbosql

Step 10:
Open in your htdocs folder config.php and edit it to your details
that you already have written in your debbo installation.

 <?
$mysqlhost='localhost';
$mysqlname='root';
$mysqlpass='123asd= YOUR PASSWORD';
$mysqldb='test= YOUR DATABSE';
$install='yes= CHANGE THIS TO NO!';
?>  

Step 11:
If you have done this correctly you will see a cool installer If not check your SQL details.

The installer is not that hard but for the noobs I will explain what some things mean:

URL TO YOUR SITE E.G: If you are using horramp or xampp ( you are) 001s.com or http://localhost/ If you only want to test it.

URL TO YOUR IMAGES E.G: 001s.com

URL TO YOU DCRS: search on ragezone for prehosted v14+ dcr and paste it here.

URL TO EXTERNAL VARS: same as DCR

URL TO EXTERNAL TEXTS: same as DCR

IS DEBBOPROJECT USEING SSO YES/NO: If you dont know what this is let it say no.

Step 12.

Hit the finish buttom. If you have done it well you should now have your CMS-like system!

Step 13.
Configure debbo with the installer ( use all the same ports,IP's etc) And start your server.

Step 14.

Congratulations you have just completed your hotel!
dont forget to edit your site because right now its way to ugly!
Dont forget to thank me if I helped. If your hotel isnt working make sure you have written the correct URL's IP's ETC

You could use a holocms tutorial. In those tutorials they explain how to setup xampp(horramp) way better. And if you cant find it. download it again and save it on your desktop:)

Thanks, very helpfull tutorial! But when I open the server, I get the following error and in the wizard I can't connect to MySQL:


How to fix it? :(

[sean111]

Nice tut 10/10 Thanks

@Needz Part of that is in Dutch so I can't read it :S But it seems you need a new MySQL Connector :P

[Idiotic]

It's cause you need the MySQL ODBC 3.51 driver. Not 5.1.

[marinov]

I keep getting error messages, can someone make me a folder with everything set up, or a video ?

[Needz]

It's cause you need the MySQL ODBC 3.51 driver. Not 5.1.

It works now, thanks!
