Tasks's install script will create your database tables and set the initial configuration settings.

Type the URL of the install script into your browser:

http://www.example.com/tasks/install/index.php

For the install script to run correctly, you must have already created your database and set the database server, name, username and password in database.inc.php and your database user must have permission to create new database tables.

You can use the install script to do a new installation of Tasks or upgrade an installation of Tasks Jr. to Tasks 2.x.

Follow the steps and when you're finished, you can log in and start using Tasks.

If you have trouble with the installation, try these solutions.

Once you have successfully logged in and see that the system is running properly, I recommend doing the following to keep your installation secure:

1. Remove the 'install' directory and all files within it. I have code in place in the install scripts to keep anything bad from happening, but removes any potential problem.
2. Change the permissions of the database user so that they can not ALTER, CREATE or DROP tables.
