1 | QUICK INSTALL |
| 2 | ============= |
| 3 | |
| 4 | For the impatient, here is a basic outline of the |
| 5 | installation process, which normally takes me only |
| 6 | a few minutes: |
| 7 | |
| 8 | 1) Move the Moodle files into your web directory. |
| 9 | |
| 10 | 2) Create a single database for Moodle to store all |
| 11 | it's tables in (or choose an existing database). |
| 12 | |
| 13 | 3) Visit your Moodle site with a browser, you should |
| 14 | be taken to the install.php script, which will lead |
| 15 | you through creating a config.php file and then |
| 16 | setting up Moodle, creating an admin account etc. |
| 17 | |
| 18 | 4) Set up a cron task to call the file admin/cron.php |
| 19 | every five minutes or so. |
