Adhere User Profiles Server - Free Edition


Introduction
This guide describes how to install Adhere User Profiles Server. The guide is intentionally brief and describes the most typical installation. The Adhere User Profiles Server Operation Guide provides more detailed information about how to operate the User Profiles Server.

Installation Prerequisites
Make sure the server includes:
  • Apache 2.2.8 or newer
  • PHP 5.2.4 or newer
  • MySQL 5.0 or newer (Innodb should be supported)
  • Tested on Redhat Enterprise Linux, Cent OS Linux, and Ubuntu Linux.

During installation, the installation wizard will ask you for the following details in order to connect to your database:

Download Adhere User Profiles Server
Download the latest installation archive from here, unpack the compressed file, and rename the folder as 'upserver'.

Upload Adhere User Profiles Server to your Web Server
Upload the upserver folder to a location on your Web Server, which you can access from a web browser. For example: http://www.yoursite.com/upserver.

Make the Folder Writable
The User Profiles Server needs to be able to write to the files in the upserver folder to complete the installation successfully. If the folder is not writable then please update the folder permissions. You need to grant write permission for the installation directory. In case of Linux, you can use the following command:
chmod ugo+rxw <web folder path>/upserver chmod ugo+rxw <web folder path>/upserver/DataObjects chmod ugo+rxw <web folder path>/upserver/Temp
Install Adhere User Profiles Server
When all files are uploaded and the folder permissions are set, open the following URL: http://www.yoursite.com/upserver and follow the instructions. When the installation is complete, Adhere User Profiles Server will display the login page. The default username is 'admin' and the password is 'password'. You are now ready to use the Adhere User Profiles Server to manage the user profiles and subscriber data. Please refer to Adhere User Profiles Server Operation Guide for more information.
