  1. Create an empty MySQL database on your webserver.
  2. Download the package by going to http://github.com/elplatt/seltzer and clicking the "ZIP" button. Or, if using the command line/terminal, type wget https://github.com/elplatt/seltzer/archive/branch.zip where "branch" is the branch you want to download. You can also fetch it from git by using the following command - git clone https://github.com/elplatt/seltzer.git
  3. Unzip the downloaded package.
  4. Under seltzer/crm, copy config.sample.inc.php to config.inc.php, and modify it to reflect the settings for your database and organization.
  5. Upload the seltzer/crm directory to the document root of your webserver. Example: /var/www/html/crm. If you want to use a directory other than /crm, you will need to update $config_base_path in config.inc.php.
  6. Make sure PHP "magic quotes" are disabled (http://php.net/manual/en/security.magicquotes.disabling.php).
  7. Open a web browser and navigate to install.php in the crm directory. Example: http://yourserver.com/crm/install.php
  8. Enter an email and choose a password for the admin user.
  9. You can now log in using "admin" as the username and the password you selected during installation.
