Operating System: Solaris 9 (latest patch update for solaris 9).

MySQL: Download the MySQL package from SunFreeware.

You need to make sure you have gcc or libgcc installed, this again is available from SunFreeware.com

PHP & Apache

You need to make sure the following packages are installed:

• gcc (recommended, other C compilers may work)
• make
• flex
• bison
• m4
• autoconf
• automake
• perl
• gzip
• tar
• GNU sed

Again all of these packages are available at SunFreeware.com.

Refer to following URL to learn more about Apache installation:

http://docs.php.net/en/install.unix.apache2.html

For the exact info on how to compile apache and php, it's VERY simple, I have done this 100s of time with no issue.

That's all that would be specifit, everything else is very simple. Setup your httpd.conf so you have a domain or subdomain or however you do this. I always setup a new subdomain.

Untar the vtiger CRM source to this dir.

Make a mysql database

>> mysql -u <userid> -p

password: <enter your password>

mysql> create database vtigerCRM;
<something about database added here, can't remember exactly>

Point your browser to the directory or host or ip address where vtiger was untared. The install will start.

You might have to change some permissions like on the /cache dir etc. you will be told during the install.
