The minimum requirement by this application template that your Web server supports PHP 5.4.0.
Extract the archive file downloaded from yiiframework.com to
a directory named basic
that is directly under the Web root.
You can then access the application through the following URL:
https://localhost/basic/web/
If you do not have Composer, you may install it by following the instructions at getcomposer.org.
You can then install this application template using the following command:
php composer.phar global require "fxp/composer-asset-plugin:1.0.0"
php composer.phar create-project --prefer-dist --stability=dev yiisoft/yii2-app-basic basic
Now you should be able to access the application through the following URL, assuming basic
is the directory
directly under the Web root.
https://localhost/basic/web/
Edit the file config/db.php
with real data, for example:
return [
'class' => 'yii\db\Connection',
'dsn' => 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=yii2basic',
'username' => 'root',
'password' => '1234',
'charset' => 'utf8',
];
NOTE: Yii won't create the database for you, this has to be done manually before you can access it.
Also check and edit the other files in the config/
directory to customize your application.
