Full Installer

Custom Setup Package

Why Full?
The Full distribution is the easiest way to get started with the BuzzMonitor on a Linux system. It is a self-contained installation package with the minimal extra configuration requirements. Full distribution uses XAMPP to quickly and easily install Apache, MySQL, PHP with numerous non-standard modules, pre-configured for the BuzzMonitor.

Installation notes

 

Why Custom?
If you are a power LAMP user and would like to manually configure Apache/MySQL/PHP for the BuzzMonitor installation, or you would like to install BuzzMonitor on a platform different from Linux, the custom package is the right choice for you. The custom package contains the web files and the database setup script that you can deploy into your environment.
