Installation

1. Extract tar ball or zip file to a directory on your web server
2. Security warning:
   
   • queXC does not have any intrinsic security, so relies on the web server for authentication
   • Set up a form of authentication such as basic username password authentication
   • Make sure to secure the entire installation to trusted users/operators
   • Secure the /admin subdirectory to trusted administrators only
3. Create the database structure by using the database/quexc.sql file on your mySQL database server
   • It is recommended to create a database user with privileges only to the queXC database
4. Edit the config.inc.php file to point to your database and your local web paths
5. Browse to the admin directory of the queXC installation in a web browser to begin administering the queXC system
