Alternate Installation
These are alternate instructions. Under most server environments and conditions, following the standard installation instructions will be easiest. These instructions are recommended for advanced users only.
If your server doesn't allow PHP to make files writable, or if you'd simply prefer to to manually set all your information, you can follow these alternate installation instructions.
There are 3 files you'll need to manually change:
Configuration Information
Open up system/mojomotor/config/config.php and set your "base_url". The base_url is the address that you type into your browser to visit your site. Remember to include a trailing slash at the end.
$config['base_url'] = "http://example.com/";
Database Information
Open the system/mojomotor/config/database.php file with a text editor and set your database settings.
Routes Information
Open up system/mojomotor/config/routes.php. Change the "default route" from "welcome" to "page".
Before
$route["default_controller"] = "welcome";
After
$route["default_controller"] = "page";
