Just how hard is it to instal and run?

follow up post with some tweaks

A long time ago i did a bit of a walk through of how to instal, because it wasnt/isnt?? in softaculous it might put people off installing. Back then i had the advantage of being able to make a database and add a user and instal scripts.

These days having lost 42% of my brain in a stroke i dont think i know these things anymore. But what is the worse that can happen? I guess i could look a idiot, but a lopsided face does that anyway.

So lets take this journey and run this puppy from scratch, if i get it working i will strip it out and do a tutorial.

I have had a nightmare installing this time!! I think its a mod write problem the server end. Waiting for the server people to have a look.

I do believe it's available in Softaculous.

There are many installation options available. You could do the automatic extractor option:

Download Composr - Composr

This shouldn't require any CHMODing as the system should do it all for you. Have you tried this?
