Requirements

MySQL may be installed on a server computer for shared database access across multiple workstations, or on a single workstation for access from that machine. APACHE??

Download and Installation

After having MySQL and PHP 5 installed, please download the DNA Module. PFAD ANGEBEN.

First steps

These steps are leading you through some basic configuration. After finishing configuration settings can also be changed by administrators.

PHP Check

At first we have to be sure that PHP is working well. The easiest way to find out is to run a tiny script and see what happens (Step 1).

Capability test

This script shows information about status of required PHP libraries and PHP version. If status of a library is "Not ok" please contact your admin before continuing configuration!

Create tables, Connection to DNA database

The DNA Module database and tables have to be created manually. For this administrator rights for your server are required!

The sql file with create and insert commands can be found at: your_dna_module_folder/sql/createtables.sql

Your administrator should create a new user for the DNA Module database.

SMTP settings

The DNA Module sends emails, if a query courses an error in script the Module or if a new password has been generated. For this mailer function SMTP parameters (path and port) are required. Please contact your admin for assistance.
You have to define a sender email adress, usually the main local administrator of the DNA Module.
To test the SMTP settings please enter a valid email address.
