Preparing the server
You need to make sure your system meets the system requirements. You can see it here:
http://www.group-office.com/Pricing+and+Sign+up/Server+version
You can test the system by running the test script:
This script should output all OK's for best performance.
You can follow this howto to setup an ideal Group-Office server:
When this is ready you need to have a connection to the server. Preferably you must have an SSH connection but an FTP connection will do too but it a little cumbersome. Apart from that you need a MySQL database with all privileges setup for the user.
So if you want Intermesh to install it then you must provide:
- A working domain where the test script runs OK
- An SSH or FTP connection to this domain
- The MySQL database connection parameters
