XF 1.5 XenForo install

[Rixa]

How do I install XenForo 1.5

I have a domain, for example. www.name.com

Move all the files throughout the "upload" below the folder where the file is httpdocs

Hey,

how XenForo installed in the right way?

I installed, but it went to the address, eg. Www.domain.com/uploads/

I would like, that it is installed only www.domain.com

You don't upload the upload folder itself, you open it first then upload the contents within the upload folder

 

[Rixa]

ok, thanks for the reply. That is, move the folder to upload files. I use Plesk "cpanel" application.

how to get XF installed, the URL address is the only www.name.com, not www.name.com/upload?

Move the files on the server from the upload directory to the domain root.

Update the Board URL in the ACP.

 

[Mr Lucky]

You should not have the upload folder. Either remove the lot and re-upload just the contents, or else from within cpanel remove everything from inside the upload folder to the root, then delete the upload folder.

 

[Rixa]

I move the "upload" the entire contents of the folder to / at the root?

 

[Mr Lucky]

You move the contents (not the folder itself) outside the folder into the same directory the upload folder is in, the delete the upload folder as it isn't meant to be there.

I mean, I transfer only these "blue marked with" / directory?

 

[Rixa]

Can I made eg. folder where I want install XF?

 

[Mr Lucky]

Can I made eg. folder where I want install XF?

You shouldn't need to


previously you said you had this Www.domain.com/uploads/ (I presume you meant upload not uploads)

Wherever you had that upload folder is where the contents should be, ie those files and folders from your image that you marked in blue.

If httpdocs is your domain's root, that is where the blue files and folders should be

 

[Rixa]

Now the files are transferred to this (FileZilla)

 

[Paul B]

They should be in the httpdocs directory on an IIS server.

 

[Rixa]

Plesk now looks like this. Or should the files have been copied directly from httpdocs folder?

 

[Rixa]

They should be in the httpdocs directory on an IIS server.

Is this correct now?

 

[Rixa]

Yet the question. What is the full URL address, to get a chance to install the XF?

 

[Paul B]

Append /install to whatever your domain URL is.

The software should automatically start the installation script.

Append /install to whatever your domain URL is.

Ok, I was able to install, but the XF says it can not find admin.php ??

 

[Paul B]

Most likely the file is missing then.

Try uploading the files again.

 

[Rixa]

you mean all files?
