Topic: Vtiger Groupware help?

[irian]

I have been asked to install Groupware in the office.
I like the choices of Vtiger.
Does anyone have/know any installation instructions/experience for SME 6.01-01?

Is there anything I need to consider before I install?
I plan to install on a test-server first and then on a live system.

Greetings,
Irian

I installed it on my sme server and it was a piece of cake. It's been awhile, but I believe you can just run the install program. You may have to make a few manual mods during the install, but nothing tough

Thanks for the encouragement thedude.

I stoppen Apache and Mysql.
Then installed the Vtiger.bin package and had it install Apache and Mysql as well.
I get stuck with mysql.
It asks for a mysql portnumber.
I enter 3306 is this right?
It doesnt accept any portnumber I enter.
What do I need to do to get this working?

I must say, this is the first time I do something with mysql.

I didn't use the bin installer method, I just used the installation with all the files

[irian]

So where can I find the files you used?
On the Vtiger website there are the Windows.exe, Linux.bin and source.zip files.

Thanks.
