Installing nuBuilder Forte

To get nuBuilder Forte up and running you'll need to do 3 things...

1. Copy nuBuilder Forte files into a directory on your server
2. Create a new MySQL or Maria DB database (e.g. nubuilder4)
3. Make a copy of the nuconfig-sample.php file and save the new file as nuconfig.php
4. Edit nuconfig.php to set your database credentials and globeadmin credentials:

• $nuConfigDBHost
• $nuConfigDBName
• $nuConfigDBUser
• $nuConfigDBPassword
• $nuConfigDBGlobeadminUsername - globeadmin username
• $nuConfigDBGlobeadminPassword - globeadmin password

eg.

       $nuConfigDBHost                 = "127.0.0.1";
       $nuConfigDBName                 = "nubuilder4";
       $nuConfigDBUser                 = "root";
       $nuConfigDBPassword             = "";
       $nuConfigDBGlobeadminUsername   = "globeadmin"; 
       $nuConfigDBGlobeadminPassword   = "a_secure_password_here";

Logging into nuBuilder for the first time will automatically create all the default system tables required for a new default copy of nuBuilder.
