Hello,
Sorry in advance for my stupid question but I don't know anything about computers and informatic, but I would like to try project'or RIA for my work. It seems to be a complete software and easy to use. Unfortunately, I downloaded the 2.2.3 version but there is no .exe file. I guess I missed something simple, because of my ignorance in IT stuff...Or I dont have the requested stuff on my PC maybe.
I have a laptop with windows 7 and use firefox. But I even don't know what a PHP server is...
And second thing: I created first an account to try the online demo but it tells me "Invalid login parameters".
I guess somebody can help me. That's the basis!
And if you speek french, of course it'll be easier for me to understand in my mother tongue. Thanks a lot!
Laure
Hi Laure,
unfortunately I didn't speek french. But your first source of information should be: click "Demo" and "online manual". There is a good basic install information.
To be honest, if you never deployed a web application, it might be a hard way.
Let me know your progress.

Hi,
Sorry, I'll answer in english 🙁 so that most users can understand and benefit of the explanation. 😉
Project'Or RIA is a web based application. This means you must first install a web server. In fact, you need Apache (web server) PHP (scripting language) and MySql (Database). :sick:
But don't be afraid, you can find some WAMP (Windows Apache Mysql Php) stacks, fully packaged with all you need. I recommand EasyPHP, for testing, as it is very easy to setup and use. :woohoo:
Here is how to do :
- => Download latest stable EasyPHP release (V5.3.9) : http://www.easyphp.org/download.php.
- => Install it on your computer (it is a setup exe file...). You can leave all defaut parameters for installation. It should be installed in C:Program Files (x86)EasyPHP-5.3.9.
- => Download Project'Or RIA (zip file) and unzip it in the www sub-directory of EasyPhp. You should then have C:Program Files (x86)EasyPHP-5.3.9wwwprojectorria.
- => Start easyPhp (if not done wet).
- => Open your browser and go to url : http://localhost/projectorria
localhost is your computer ;). - => You will get in the config screen. :silly:. You can leave all parameters to default : it will work with easyPhp :whistle: .
- => Click OK : you'll get message "Database 'projectorria' created. Parameters are saved." 🙂 .
- => Click Continue :cheer: .
- => You're on the login screen :evil:. Login as admin/admin. On first login, the tool will create all tables in the database, so it make take some time : no more than one or two minutes on slow computer :blush: , 10 seconds on mine :P. Then you'll get message "DATABASE UPDATE COMPLETED TO VERSION V2.3.0" :pinch: . Keep going ! you're almost in. Click OK again : YOU'RE IN :cheer: .
NB : I'm building some hosting service, at reasonable fee.
I could provide some temporary hosting for testing.
If you're interested, contact me at support@toolware.fr (you can email in french :kiss: )
Have fun B)

Complement information :
To log on demo, use guest/guest or invité/invité (for french).
Account is valid only for web site and forum, not for the application.
that's great!! That's a good explanation for a beginner!!
unfortuantely I couldnt pass the step 2 which is: "unzip it in the www sub-directory of EasyPhp. You should then have C:Program Files (x86)EasyPHP-5.3.9wwwprojectorria"
Maybe I'll give up, it's maybe too complicated for me if I'm already stuck to install it 🙁
Does it mean that you need a constant internet connection to work on Project'or RIA?
And thanks for the proposition of hodsting service. But I'm working for an NGO and we dont have the budget for it. Anyway, I'll try once again, if you explain me how to unzip the file, and if it's too complicated I'll surch for something else.
Thank you anyway for developping such softwares!
unzip it in the www sub-directory of EasyPhp. You should then have C:Program Files (x86)EasyPHP-5.3.9wwwprojectorria
If you get the zip file, just copy it to "C:Program Files (x86)EasyPHP-5.3.9wwwprojectorria" (with windows file explorer). If you did not get the zip file , it is just easy : go to http://projectorria.toolware.fr/index.php/menu_download_en page (with your brower), right click on the last stable release link "V2.2.3", as select "save target as" (or equivalent, it depends on the browser) and select to save in directory "C:Program Files (x86)EasyPHP-5.3.9www". Wait until download is finished.
Then open the Windows file explorer and go to "C:Program Files (x86)EasyPHP-5.3.9www". You will see file projectorriaV2.3.0.zip. Right click on the file, and select "extract here".
Does it mean that you need a constant internet connection to work on Project'or RIA?
No, not if you use it locally. But the power of Project'Or RIA is that is is collabiorative : data is share between all users ; for this you need to share the access through a network (your enterprise network, or the internet).
Just try the demo (log in as invité/invité), you'll see if it's worth the effort to have it run on your own.
OK, I passed step 2 😆
But then, I get to the configuration screen, leave all parameters to default, click OK, and receive this error message: "incorrect database parameters : wrong host or user or password, Error while trying to create Database 'projectorria' .
I tried it several time, unistalled and installed again everything, but that's the same...I'll never manage it 🙁
Hi,
Don't give up, you're almost there !
Your installation is correct, and don't have to reinstall.
You just have to find the correct parameters to connect ot the database.
1) Host : by default it is "localhost" (it means : my local computer), but in some cases, the parametring of the machine does not include localhost configuration. So you have to enter the corresponding IP "127.0.0.1". Try this.
2) User : it is "root" for easyPhp.
3) Password : try "mysql" and "" (empty field)
So, the parameters you must change are :
Database host : 127.0.0.1
Database user to connect : root
Database password for user :
I tried it with PHP 5.3.9 : it works.
Then run in browser http://127.0.0.1
If it does not work, try http://127.0.0.1:8887
(it worked for me after installation of V5.3.9, but as I had another installation of easyPHP, it may be slightly different for you and the shorter version (without :8887) can work)
I made it! incredible!
If I could make it, although I had never heard about PHP server 3 days ago, I guess everybody can make it. I did as you've said (the IP "127.0.0.1" and empty Database password for user) and it works! So, thanks a lot for your patience and your capacity to explain to a hopeless woman!
Now the next step is to read the manual, try to enter my projects and convince my team to adopt this software (I mean your software)!
I'll let you know if I use it! Hope so, after these intensive efforts from each of us!
Thanks
Laure
Wow what a support. :woohoo:
Even I'm sharing this community a long time, I'm still overjoyed about this fantastic support.
Bonjour
quand j'achi changé le localhost pat :127.0.0.1 et user=root, et mot de passe="" ou mysql
j'ai le meme error:
incorrect database parameters : wrong host or user or password
Error while trying to create Database 'projectorria
merci pour votre help
This configuration is valid for a local EasyPHP installation.
password = "" means keep it empty (empty string)
If your mysql is remote, or any other installation than EasyPHP, refer to you mysql manual to know about the password to be used.
NB :pease post in English !
Hello,
I am in trouble. I am trying to install this beautiful software on a new server. I followed procedures but I encountered this message : "invalid login parameters".

The default password in parameters.php file is for new users or reinitizalisation of password...
