Installation/Upgrade Instructions

When upgrading always make sure you do a backup

  1. Double click the installer and if promoted enter your computer username and password. Follow the prompts for each step through the installer. if you are doing an upgrade you simply need to make sure that the correct path to php pos is chosen. If you used the defaults you won't need to change anything.

If you are using linux you will need to do the following via terminal;

sudo chmod 755 INSTALLER.run
sudo ./INSTALLER.run

Replace INSTALLER.run with the file you downloaded
