Can I ask if anyone has done any Typo 3 installation - either on Linux or Windows? I would like to do a test installation to try out the features - however after using a Windows installer on desktop which was easy I was quite surprised when realised how different manual installation is - and it requires knowledge of specifics of the installation…
I want to give it a run too… but there are no docs out to be found by me.
I am going to try to give it a run on the windows side in the next week.
to be honest, I do not think it is rocket science… but I did read that it wiwll not work with the standard php.ini at 8mb
Once I saw that and remembered the difficulties of SugarCRM… I thought I’d turn to the forums…
Thanks Stephen… and good luck!
Well, I tried an automated Win installer from Sourceforge, which worked perfectly. However, this is only suitable for a desktop installation - installs all components without a flaw on a win XP Pro desktop incl. Apache, MySQL, php, and more (with IIS already running). No problems there. Having said that - I would perhaps prefer to run it on a Linux server, but the installation there involves so much … - creating symlinks, configuring permissions, and more…! IF there was an easier way to install it, or if we could maybe get some guidance which package would suit which server - there are Debian versions, plain “Linux” versions, WAMP, LAMP, etc - too complicated. It also requires a few components to optimise graphics, which might not be possible to install on shared servers.
My other option is Joomla, which is easier to install, but I saw more potential in Typo3 in terms of features and scalability. Pity it has a steep learning curve.
one nice thing about the PHP on windows is that it can dynamically add the needed extensions on a per domain basis and we don’t have to fill all the server memory loading it for all people even if they don’t use them.
Anny news about TYPO3 installation on Jodohost Server ?.
