General

Thank you for downloading papaya CMS and testing/using it. Usage is free, under the conditions described in the GNU General Public Licence, version 2 (GPL V2)., (*9)

papaya CMS is an Open Source CMS aiming primarily at large-scale websites and complex web applications. It does not use any proprietary templating- or scripting-languages but is entirely based upon open standards (e.g. PHP, MySQL/PostgreSQL, XSL/XSLT etc.)., (*10)

Up-to-date information can be obtained from [http://www.papaya-cms.com]., (*11)

Licence

papaya CMS is subject to the GNU General Public Licence, version 2 (GPL V2). See gpl.txt for the complete text of the GPL., (*12)

See credits.txt for a list of other open source software included in this release of papaya CMS., (*13)

System Requirements

Server:

  • PHP >= 5.6, (*14)

    • XML (ext/xml)
    • XSLT (ext/xsl)
    • Database extension (ext/sqlite3, ext/mysql, ext/mysqli or ext/pgsql)
    • Sessions (ext/session)
    • PCRE (ext/pcre)
    • GD (ext/gd)

  • Webserver, (*15)

    • PHP embedded webserver (for development)
    • Apache httpd 2.x
      • mod_rewrite
  • Database
    • SQLite 3
    • MySQL >= 4.1.x

Client (for Administration):

  • Webbrowser (Firefox recommended)
    • JavaScript

Client (for output with default templates):

  • Webbrowser
    • JavaScript (optional - for popups and flash)

Installation

The installation is using Composer and Phing., (*16)

Creating new project

Call Composer to get the project skeleton., (*17)

composer create-project papaya/cms-project projectname

Quick Setup (for development)

Call Phing in the project directory, (*18)

cd projectname
phing

Start the PHP builtin webserver, (*19)

php -S localhost:8080 -t ./htdocs server.php

Open the URL http://localhost:8080/papaya in you browser (make sure Javascript is active) and follow the installation steps., (*20)

You can initialize the project directory as a git repository and push it to a server. You can read more about this in the section "Installation and Configuration" further below., (*21)

Basic configuration

Copy dist.build.properties to build.properties and change the database uri option. build.properties will not be committed to Git, so any developer can have its own local build configuration., (*22)

Here are two database options: database.uri is for the local installation, dist.database.uri is for the distribution/release., (*23)

The database address following this scheme:, (*24)

  • protocol://user:password@hostname/database or
  • protocol://./path/file

e.g. * mysql://web1:secret@localhost/usr_web1_1 or * sqlite3://./papaya.sqlite, (*25)

You should have received this information from your ISP or System Administrator., (*26)

Calling Phing inside the project directory will trigger Composer to install the dependencies and create the configuration file (papaya.php). An existing papaya.php will not be overwritten., (*27)

To overwrite papaya.php call, (*28)

phing config-regenerate

Export project for distribution

The Phing build file contains targets to compile project builds for distribution., (*29)

Create a directory:, (*30)

phing export-directory

Create a tar gz archive:, (*31)

phing export-tgz

Create a zip archive:, (*32)

phing export-zip

Directories

htdocs/

The document root for the webserver. If you need to rename you need to provide it in the composer.json., (*33)

{
  "extra" : {
    "document-root" : "htdocs/"
  }
}

htdocs/papaya/

Composer will install the Administration interface into this directory., (*34)

htdocs/papaya-themes/

Directory for the papaya themes. A theme contains the css, js and layout images for a project. All static resources that need to be delivered to the browser., (*35)

They can be installed by Composer or be part of the project., (*36)

papaya-data/

This directory contains the file cache and media files. It needs to be writeable the webserver., (*37)

src/

The directory for project papaya modules, except installed by Composer., (*38)

templates/

The default directory for XSLT template sets. It can be changed using the composer.json., (*39)

{
  "extra" : {
    "papaya" : {
      "template-directory": "templates/"
    }
  }
}

They can be installed by Composer or be part of the project., (*40)

Setting permissions

Setting Permissions for Windows (XP, 2003 server, and higher)

Write permission has to be granted to the webserver for the folder "papaya-data". File permissions can be set by using Windows Explorer and right-clicking on the folder. However, Windows installations do not usually require permissions to be set., (*41)

Setting Permissions for Unix (linux, unix, BSD etc)

Write permission has to be granted to the webserver for the directory "papaya-data". File permissions can be set by your FTP client. Set the permissions for this directory to "0777"., (*42)

user group others
Read X X X
Write X X X
Execute X X X

More restrictive permissions may be possible. Please ask your server administrator., (*43)

papaya CMS is now installed. Continue on to the Initialization and Configuration section of this document., (*44)

Initialization and Configuration

1. Start install script

Open http://www.domain.tld/papaya/install with your webbrowser (replace www.domain.tld with your own domain). The start page of the installation script is displayed. The start page contains a couple of links to the FAQ, the installation forum, the support page, and the papaya website., (*45)

Click on "Next" to get to the next step., (*46)

2. Agree to license

The next step of the insall script will display a copy of the GPL. You need to accept the license agreement in order to proceed. Do do so, click on "Accept license"., (*47)

3. Check system

In the following step of the installation, the script will check if your system is compatible with papaya CMS and whether all needed extensions are available. If this is the case, you can go on with the next step of the installation. Do so by clicking on "Next"., (*48)

4. Define PAPAYA_PATH_DATA and set up admin account

4a. Set path for PAPAYA_PATH_DATA

Enter the path to the directory papaya-data for the option PAPAYA_PATH_DATA. Please provide an absolute path., (*49)

4b. Set up account for the administrator

Enter the givenname, surname, the email address, the login name as well as the password. Click on "Save"., (*50)

5. Set up the configuration table

In the next step of the install script, you are prompted to create the configuration table. Click on "Create" to create the configuration table and proceed with the installation., (*51)

NOTE - The prompt isn't displayed when the database connection hasn't been configured properly., (*52)

6. Initialize database

Once the configuration table is created, you will see a list of database tables as well as the following menu., (*53)

  1. Analyze database, (*54)

    Checks existing tables in the database. (disabled when none of the necessary tables exists), (*55)

  2. Update database, (*56)

    Create missing tables and update existing tables. (disabled if no modifications are necessary), (*57)

  3. Insert default data, (*58)

    Insert default values in selected tables. WARNING :: EXISTING DATA WILL BE DELETED FROM THE TABLE! (you can perform this operation multiple times), (*59)

  4. Check options and modules, (*60)

    Check options, set default values and look for installed modules (you can perform this operation multiple times), (*61)

  5. Go to admin interface, (*62)

    Opens the user admin interface., (*63)

Click on each option, one after one. The installation tool will modify existing tables without deleting data. The tool can be reused when you want to update your system, without losing your content., (*64)

Tables for additional modules (e.g. forum) can be installed later, via the administration module., (*65)

The database for papaya CMS is now ininitialized, and papaya CMS is ready for configuration. When you click on the link in step "5) Go to admin interface", you will automatically be logged in in the papaya backend where you can start configuring papaya CMS., (*66)

7. Configuration

7a) Login after database initialization

In case you have interrupted the installation procedure for papaya CMS and want to configure papaya CMS at a later time, you need to log into the backend of papaya CMS:, (*67)

  1. Open http://www.domain.tld/papaya/ with your webbrowser. Please replace www.domain.tld with your actual domain where you have installed papaya CMS.
  2. Log in using your username and password. You have entered a username and a password when you have configured the account for the default administrator and should have the account information already.

In case you have continued with the installation directly after the database initialization, you will be logged in automatically., (*68)

7b) Going on with the configuration

Klick on the button "Settings" in the menu group "Administration". The system settings section of papaya CMS is opened., (*69)

Important options:, (*70)

Files and Directories PAPAYA_PATH_DATA - Path to data directory (papaya-data/) PAPAYA_PATH_WEB - Path below webroot (/), (*71)

Layout PAPAYA_LAYOUT_TEMPLATES - XSLT directory PAPAYA_LAYOUT_THEME - directory containing CSS and layout images, (*72)

IMPORTANT - Sometimes, the option PAPAYA_PATH_DATA cannot be set during installation. You can recognize a failed setting if a value is displayed for this option, but the option is set between brackets. You will have to edit and save the option. After saving the option, the brackets will disappear., (*73)

Click on "Check paths" after setting the option PAPAYA_PATH_DATA. The system checks the data path permissions and creates necessary subdirectories for the media database if they don't exist., (*74)

8. Users and passwords

Click in the menu group "Administration" on "Users". In the user admninistration, you can create an account for each new user., (*75)

NOTE - Create a user account for each author. Each page's author will then be displayed as part of the page information., (*76)

Troubleshooting

If you have any problems installing or using papaya CMS, please consult the following resources. This helps us to help you by spending less time repeatedly answering questions answered elsewhere and concentrate on developing the system. It also helps us conserve what little hair we have remaining., (*77)

  1. Read the FAQ: http://www.papaya-cms.com/faq/
  2. Read the docs: http://www.papaya-cms.com/docs/
  3. Search the forum: http://www.papaya-cms.com/forum/
  4. Steps 1 - 3 didn't help?br/ -> Write a message in our forum (http://www.papaya-cms.com/forum/) Please try to give as much information about your problem as possible (ie, operating system, version numbers etc). This will not only help us to track down the problem, but also help those users with similar problems who come after you.

Appendix

1. Install papaya CMS in a subdirectory

It is possible to install papaya CMS in a subdirectory of your webserver. You will have to modify the .htaccess file to point to the subdirectory. The .htaccess file must remain in your document root. You can find an example .htaccess in readme directory fo the papaya core (htaccess.tpl). Substitute the directory name for the placeholder {%webpath_pages%}., (*78)

Examples:, (*79)

  pages/
  cms/page/

Note that you may not enter a leading slash (before path), but have to add a trailing slash (after path)., (*80)

2. Rewrite Rules in httpd.conf

You can put the content of your .htaccess directly in your webservers configuration file. If possible, use a per-directory configuration., (*81)

The .htaccess is then no longer needed and can be disabled, or completely removed., (*82)

3. Apache mod_vhost_alias

If you use mod_vhost_alias, the PHP superglobal $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] will give a false value. The installer will fail to calculate the correct paths. In this case, you have to manually correct the paths in your conf.inc.php, and add the following line:, (*83)

$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] = '/path/vhosts/hostname/';

Please replace '/path/vhosts/hostname/' with the actual path to the virtual document root of your papaya installation on your webserver., (*84)

The paths of the Rewrite Rules in the .htaccess file have to be corrected as well. If you installed papaya CMS directly into your document root, you can use the .htaccess from the files directory of your install package., (*85)

4. MySQL >= 4.1 and character sets

Starting with Version 4.1, MySQL supports unicode character sets. If you use MySQL 4.1 or higher, make sure the tables use UTF-8 as default character set. You can verify this by looking at the table's collation. It has to start with "utf8" (e.g. utf8_general_ci)., (*86)
