• Login to your mysql server
• create database opendocman;
• CREATE USER 'opendocman'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'YOURPASSWORDHERE';
• GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON opendocman.* TO 'opendocman'@'YOURDBHOSTNAME';

Installing via Docker is the easiest option. This will run the database and app inside a docker-compose deployment. The docker-configs folder and the files-data folder will be created to persist when you stop/start/update your docker-compose deployment.

1. Ensure you have a Docker service available
2. docker up -d --build

1. Untar/Unzip files into any dir in your web server document home folder

2. Create a MySQL database/username/password

3. Make a directory for the uploaded documents to be stored that is accessible to the web server but not available by browsing. Ensure the permissions are correct on this folder to allow for the web server to write to it. Refer to the help text in the installer for more information.

   ex. $>mkdir /var/www/document_repository

4. Load the opendocman index.php page in your web browser and follow the prompts.

5. Enjoy!

7. Import your database.sql file into your database

8. Visit the URL for your installation and login as admin/admin. Change your admin password once you login.

To update your current version to the latest release:

1. Rename your current opendocman folder.
2. Unarchive opendocman into a new folder and rename it to the original folder name
3. Copy your original config.php file into the new folder
4. Load the opendocman /install address in your web browser ( ex. http://www.example.com/install )
5. Follow the prompts for installation.

Anyone is welcome to contribute to OpenDocMan's codebase! If you have a fix or code change, feel free to submit it as a pull request directly to the "master" branch. In cases where the change is relatively small or does not affect other parts of the codebase, it may be merged in immediately by any one of the collaborators. On the other hand, if the change is particularly large or complex, it is expected that it will be discussed at length either well in advance of the pull request being submitted, or even directly on the pull request.
