    Hello again!

    I've built a little akelos app. Now i would install it on a new server with the akelos installer. Like the Editam CMS. But, how can i do that? Is there a generator?

    The simplest way for doing this is by placing a copy of Akelos on the new server, copy your local application to the server, and edit your application config/config.php file, change AK_FRAMEWORK_DIR so it points to the path where you placed the framework, and edit your DB connection details. You might also need to edit your .htaccess file to remove RewriteBase rules that you might not need on the new location. If the server runs as a different user, you might need to CHMOD the application files or set an FTP account for file modifications ($ftp_settings = 'ftp://username:password@example.com/path/to_your/base/dir'; on your config.php).

    You should only make accessible ./public to on your web server using a soft link or modifying you webserver configuration.

    Editam uses a custom dispatcher and makes use of Akelos configurable paths. Have a look into Editam's config/environments/* files.

    If you want to distribute your application there is no better layout for that than the provided by Editam, but that requires more work.

    hi bermi, can you describe the "editam way" a little bit more? I've taken a look to editam's files. but its a bit difficult to figure it out how it works when the project is unknown.

    greets
