Email

See the manual.

Webserver


Apache is currently the only supported web server. However, there should be no impedments to using anyother web server. Please let us know if you do successfully run Rogō on a non apache web server.

The minimum required version of apache is 2.2 we recommend you use the latest apache 2.4.X version available on your operating system.

Please ensure the following apache modules are installed and enabled:

  • mod_SSL
  • mod_rewrite


File System


When installing Rogō it is recommended that the default data directory is changed to a path outside of the webserver directory. As well as for added security this will make updating Rogō  in the future more streamless as data direcotries will not need to be moved around.

Permissions

Most directories in Rogō should be set up to be writable by the owner only:

Exceptions to this rule include the following directories which need to allow higher write privileges for the web server user:

  • rogo data directory
  • rogo config directory - for installation only, so that config.inc.php can be written. This should be changed back to being writable by the owner only after installation.
  • rogo temp directory
