Local Installation on Windows 7 with XAMPP

martinl

Hi guys,

Totally new to this, can you run OSTicket locally and if so how do you install it locally?

Thanks,

Martin

Installation directions don't really differ remotely vs locally. You are still required to have:

A web server with PHP installed

A MySQL server

The OST files from the distribution

If you wanted to run it locally would need to install and configure all of that to get it to work. A basic check list would look something like:

install web server

configure web server to use PHP

setup web page in web server / put OST files in proper place

install MySQL and configure it

ensure that mysql-php and mysql-imap are enabled

create MySQL database for OST

create MySQL username/password and grant permissions to database for OST

run the OSTicket installer

for local testing i use XAMPP.

You will have to close skype down to get apache to workthough ;)

You shouldn't be writing www.localhost.com(www.localhost.com) unless you own that domain.

you want:

http://localhost/YourPathTo/setup(http://localhost/YourPathTo/setup)

So if you put everything in /support then it would be:

http://localhost/support/setup(http://localhost/support/setup)

If you put everything in the root web dir then it would be:

http://localhost/setup(http://localhost/setup)

Since we don't know how you setup the webserver, etc. we cannot really tell you what your path is beyond that.
