These instructions have been designed to help you get started quickly with Pixaria Gallery. They assume that you're at latest slightly familiar with installing PHP scripts, importing MySQL database files, changing file permissions on servers and setting up MySQL databases. If you're not sure about this, try the detailed instructions.

Unpack the Pixaria Gallery zip package and locate the config file pixaria.config.php in the root level of the package folder. Enter the settings for your server including:

• The full URL of your preferred Pixaria install URL including a trailing forward slash
• Your MySQL database host name
• Your database user name
• Your database password
• Your database name

Save the file and upload the entire contents of the Pixaria package folder to your server into the location you wish to serve the website from.

Set permissions to '770' or '777' on the following directories (use '777' if you have problems with the site using the preferred '770' option):

• resources/incoming/
• resources/library
• resources/smarty/cache/
• resources/smarty/templates_c/

Import the database setup script resources/databases/pixaria.complete.sql into your chosen MySQL database.

Navigate to the URL where you placed your files and you should see the default Pixaria homepage. Log in by clicking on the link 'Sign in' and entering the default user name 'test@test.local' and the default password 'password'.

Once logged in, follow the instructions in the left hand panel to upgrade your database to the most recent version and apply the library maintainance updates. Congratulations, your website is now ready to use!
