Please Support This Project!

This project is being developed during my spare time. I find it to be very useful for people that are starting to use nZEDb and have little to no previous experience with Ubuntu/Debian Servers. I would appreciate a donation if you found it useful.

You can also support me by sending a BitCoin donation to the following address:

IMPORTANT!

Inside the script you have to change the values that say:

YOUR_USERNAME <--- Make it your Ubuntu Username

YOUR_PASSWORD <--- Make it your selected Password

TO DOs (After installing)

• To enable Memcache:

cp /var/www/nzedb/nzedb/config/settings.example.php  /var/www/nzedb/nzedb/config/settings.php
sudo nano /var/www/nzedb/nzedb/config/settings.php
