How To Install Simple Stock Management System?

Before You Begin: Check Requirements

To ensure a smooth installation, your server needs:

• PHP Version: 8.2.0 or higher (ask your hosting provider if you’re unsure)
• PHP Extensions (These should be enabled by default, but ask for help if needed):
  • GD, BCMath, Ctype, Fileinfo, JSON, Mbstring, OpenSSL, PDO, Tokenizer, XML
  • Supportive link: https://docs.cpanel.net/whm/software/php-extensions-and-applications-package/

Special Permissions Needed:

• Make sure that these folders are writable (able to save files):
  • /storage
  • /bootstrap/cache

Upload the System Files to Your Server

1. Download the Files:

• Log in to your CodeCanyon account and download the Simple Stock Management System.
• Unzip (extract) the files on your computer.

1. Upload Files to Your Website:

• Open File Manager in your hosting control panel (like cPanel) or use an FTP program (like FileZilla).
• Find your website’s main folder (often named public_html or a similar name).
• Upload all files from the upload folder you downloaded.

Note: If you need help with File Manager or FTP, contact your hosting provider for support.

Create a Database

Your system requires a place to store information, which we call a database.

1. Go to the Databases Section:

• Open your hosting control panel (e.g., cPanel) and look for “MySQL Databases.”
• Supportive link: https://support.cpanel.net/hc/en-us/articles/360057550753-How-to-create-a-database-and-database-user-in-cPanel

1. Create a New Database:

• Enter a name (e.g., simple_stock_db) and click Create.

1. Create a Database User:

• Make a new user and choose a password for it. Write down these details for later.

1. Link the User to the Database:

• Assign your new user to the database and give it “All Privileges” (full access).

Help: If you’re unsure about this, ask your hosting provider to help you set up the database and user.

• Go to your website. It will redirect to the installation route, you will find /install at the end of the address (e.g., https://yourdomain.com/install).

• Check Requirements:
• The installer will check your server settings. If all checks pass, click Next. If any items fail, contact your hosting provider.This will start the Installation Wizard.

• You’ll need to enter the information from Step 3:
  • Database Host: Typically, localhost
  • Database Name, Username, and Password you created earlier
  • App URL: Your website address (e.g., https://yourdomain.com)

• Database Migration:
• The installer will now set up the necessary tables and information in your database. This may take a moment.
• If errors occur, double-check your details and make sure your server meets the requirements.
