• PHP 5.4.4 or above
• PHP 5.4.4 or above with command line interface
• PHP Extensions
  • GD
  • Mcrypt
  • JSON
  • ctype
  • Tokenizer
  • SimpleXML

Installation instructions

Using Composer

As both Symfony 2 and Oro Platform use Composer to manage their dependencies, this is the recommended way to install the Oro Platform.

If you don't have Composer yet, download it and follow the instructions on http://getcomposer.org/ or just run the following command:

    curl -s https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

• Clone https://github.com/orocrm/platform-application.git Platform Application project with

    git clone https://github.com/orocrm/platform-application.git

• Make sure that you have NodeJS installed

• Install OroCRM dependencies with composer. If installation process seems too slow you can use "--prefer-dist" option. Go to crm-application folder and run composer installation:

php composer.phar install --prefer-dist

• Create the database with the name specified on previous step (default name is "bap_standard").

• Install application and admin user with Installation Wizard by opening install.php in the browser or from CLI:

php app/console oro:install --env prod

• Enable WebSockets messaging

php app/console clank:server --env prod

• Configure crontab or scheduled tasks execution to run the command below every minute:

php app/console oro:cron --env prod

Note: app/console is a path from project root folder. Please make sure you are using full path for crontab configuration or if you running console command from other location.

Using vagrant (for development)

If you want to use the provided vagrant setup, make sure you have vagrant and VirtualBox installed on your machine. Then run the following command

vagrant up

To actually setup the application, you have to login to your vagrant box and start the installation:

vagrant ssh # connect to the virtual machine
php app/console oro:install --env prod # start the oro installation

To be able to easily access your vagrant setup on your host system, add a new host entry (usually in /etc/hosts):

172.21.33.72  oroplatform.lo

After that you'll be able to access your installation using the following URL: http://oroplatform.lo

Installation notes

Installed PHP Accelerators must be compatible with Symfony and Doctrine (support DOCBLOCKs)

Using MySQL 5.6 on HDD is potentially risky because of performance issues

Recommended configuration for this case:

innodb_file_per_table = 0

And ensure that timeout has default value

wait_timeout = 28800
