FORMBOSS INSTALL STEPS
=================================================================================
FULL DOCUMENTATION CAN BE FOUND AT:
http://www.rackforms.com/documentation/installation/rackforms


== STEP 1
=================================================================================
UPLOAD FILES TO YOUR SERVER

Unzip the contents of the downloaded rackforms3.zip file onto your web server.

You can rename this "root" folder to anything you like, so long as you keep the 
file structure within the root folder the same.

At this point you'll want to make sure your server is running PHP 5.

In most cases you should be, but if not, you can typically enable PHP 5 on most hosting
accounts by creating/editing an .htaccess file at the root of your site and adding this code to it:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php .php5 .php4 .php3


== STEP 2
=================================================================================
CREATE A DATABASE FOR FORMBOSS

Generally speaking, you'll want to create a new database for RackForms to use. That
way your data used by RackForms will be kept separate from other systems.

However, you can use an existing database, all RackForms tables will start with fb_


== STEP 3
=================================================================================
CREATE A DATABASE USER FOR FORMBOSS

Create a database user and assign this user all privileges except GRANT

Take note of this information and save it for STEP 4.


== STEP 4
=================================================================================
INSTALL FORMBOSS

Open a web browser and browse to the location you placed the RackForms files.

The install.php page will automatically load.

-- You cannot update RackForms Pro to RackForms 3 using these steps, this is only for RackForms 3 -> RackForms 3 newer version (Build).


== STEP 1
Make a full backup of your existing RackForms3 directory ~YOU MUST DO THIS!~

== STEP 2
Make a full database backup of all RackForms tables
 (they always start with fb_)


== STEP 3
Open the new RackForms 3 folder and copy the entire /app directory to your 
server, overwriting the existing /app directory.

== STEP 4
Open your backup from STEP 1 and copy the two files from the backup to the webserver:

	app/config.php
	app/movefiles/config.php

With these two files copied over, you have fully updated RackForms 3.
