SunRav TestOfficePro.WEB::Installation

Installation

The SunRav TestOfficePro suite consists of two components:

tMaker for Windows. This component is used to create and edit tests.
A set of php scripts that should be installed on a WEB server. They allow you to perform testing, manage users and tests, and create reports based on the results of testing.

Installation order

Download the latest version of the software from the SunRav Software website:
http://www.sunrav.com/download/testofficeweb_eng.exe
Run testofficeweb_eng.exe and follow instructions.
Find the web folder in the SunRav TestOfficePro.WEB installation folder. Copy everything contained there to your WEB server. It is recommended for you to create a separate folder on your server.
Launch your preferred web browser (Internet Explorer, FireFox, Opera etc.) and navigate to:
servername/test/admin/install.php

where servername is the address of your server (e.g. localhost or www.myservername.com)
test is the folder where scripts were placed
admin is the folder where administration scripts were placed. You don’t have to create it manually, it is created automatically after you copied all the files to the server (see step 3).
A prompt to initialize the database will appear. This is needed to create required tables and fill them with data.
Enter the actual data in the following fields:

Database Name – the name of the database which will be used to keep tests, testing results etc.
Server – MySQL server address. Usually it is localhost.
Login – MySQL login. Consult your network administrator. If you installed MySQL yourself, then you are probably able to use root.
Password – MySQL password.
Create user group – if you enter the name of the user group here (it is recommended for you to do it), a user group with this name will be created after the database is installed.

Press the Install Database button.
If everything was done correctly, you’ll see the message that the installation was successful.
In the folder where you installed SunRav TestOfficePro.WEB, find the web folder.

Open it using Windows Explorer or any other file manager. Find the connect.php file and open it using any text editor (e.g. Notepad). It looks like this:

<?
$db_conn=mysql_pconnect("localhost","login","password");
mysql_select_db("test", $db_conn);
?>
Replace test with the database name that you entered before (See step 6.1)
Replace localhost with the address of the SQL server (See step 6.2)
Replace login with the MySQL login (See step 6.3)
Replace password with the MySQL password (See step 6.4)
Save your changes.
Upload this file to you server in the following folders:

servername/test/admin/
and
servername/test/

Now you can press the Start button to begin.
To access the functionality of the system, you have to authorize yourself, i.e. enter your login and password. The following user with administrator rights is created by default after the database is installed:
login - admin
password - admin
You are encouraged to change this user’s password immediately after the installation is completed.
Delete the servername/test/admin/install.php file!
