What is Habari ?
Habari is an open source next-generation blogging package. To learn more about it’s differences and advantages over other blogging packages, head over to HabariProject.org for some screencasts, screenshots and in-depth explanations.

At the time of this writing, the current stable version of Habari is 0.5.2. Just keep in mind Habari is still under heavy development. Although it’s pretty stable and any bugs encountered would most probably be resolved pretty fast, you may want wait a bit more if your life depends on fully tested software.
Requirements
Any regular hosting plan offered by Arvixe already covers everything you need to get started (not including ASP packages). If you still want to have a look at the list of requirements, it is available on the Installation page of the Documentation section.
Setting up the database – OPTION #1: SQLite
The easiest way to set up your blog would be with an SQLite database. If you wish to do so, there’s no configuration to do at all as the installation process will take care of it. Just proceed to the next step and enjoy!
Setting up the database – OPTION #2: MySQL
If you would like to use MySQL, you will have to create a new database table. You can do it very easily with the MySQL Database Wizard from your cPanel.  You can also refer to this video tutorial if you need help: http://www.cpanel.net/media/tutorials/mysqlwizard.htm

Make sure to allow “ALL PRIVILEGES” for the user when asked.

Getting the files
You can download the latest stable version from the Download section of the main project website.
The package comes as a .zip file. You just need to extract it locally and send it to your site, preferably using SFTP or any other secure method.
If you don’t know any tool to do this, FilleZilla is a good choice to start with. You can view our tutorial written by Victor Gebhardt in regards to How to install Filezilla. You just have to enter sftp://yourdomain.com in the upper address bar. If you don’t know the name and password to enter, there’s a great chance they are the same as your cPanel’s.

You can then copy your files to your /public_html directory or any subdirectory of your choice. For this example, we will be using /public_html/blog. Here’s what it should look like when the transfer is done:
habari-installation-files

Installation
Alright! Now just point your browser to your installation directory, for example http://yourdomain.com/blog. You should be prompted for your database information. Make sure to change the “Database Type” field according to your prefered setup. Here’s an example on how to fill it with a MySQL configuration:
Habari installation form

When everything has been correctly entered, the button to complete the installation process will appear at the bottom of the page. Just click it to proceed. Then you will be redirected to the main page with the default theme:
Habari default theme

Congratulation! You’re now a member of the Habari community!
What’s next ?
The Habari Project Wiki will get you started with more information and links to themes and plugins. This is also the place to visit to get more information if you are considering contributing to Habari.

Installing Joomla 1.5 using Fanastico


Select the Fantastico Icon
Step One:
In this Tutorial I am going to Install Joomla 1.5 into my website using Fantastico.To begin, you must first login into your cpanel. This can be done by typing in your browser http://cpanel.yourdomain.com, or http://yourdomain.com/cpanel. You will then be asked for a username and password, which you chose when setting up your account. Once you are logged into cpanel, scroll about three-fourths of the way down the page and find the Fantastico De Luxe icon; which is the light blue, circular smiley face, in the middle far right of this screenshot.

Once you’ve clicked on the Fantastico icon, the main Fantastico page will come up. At this point, Fantastico gives you the option to automatically install any of the scripts on the left-hand side of the page. For the purpose of this tutorial, we will select Joomla 1.5 from the Content Management category.
After you’ve clicked on the Joomla 1.5 link, a page with a list of options should appear. Select the link that reads New Installation, in the middle of the page, to begin your installation of Joomla 1.5.

Click on New Installation

Provide the information, that will best suite your open source content manager
Once this has been selected, the first page of Joomla setup will come up, it will ask you for some basic information so that your open source content manager is setup accurately. Choose the correct domain, then type the name of the directory you would like to CREATE and place Joomla in, for example the directory Joomla, that I would like Joomla to be placed in, did not exist before this process, be sure to leave this portion blank if you would like Joomla to be installed into the root directory. Next, create yourself a administrator username and password, be sure to keep this information private and make sure it is something you will remember in the future. Then, provide your admin email, give yourself an admin name you would like to be referred by and lastly, make sure the site name is correct. Once this has all been completed, proceed to click on the Install Joomla 1.5 gray box and the bottom of the page.

Make sure the information is correct before clicking Finish Installation
The next page to appear will inform you of your new database that has been created for you, and will also confirm with you the domain and directory you would like Joomla to be installed in. If the information is correct, click on the Finish Installation icon.
For the last and final step, go over the page shown to you once more, and make sure the information is the same as what you previously provided and desired. This page will also show you again your admin username and password, just in case you may have forgot, as well as the path to your administrator page (http://.bestreda.com/joomla/administrator). When you have completed looking at this page, type in the email address you would like to have the details of your installation sent to. Congratulations! you have now installed Joomla 1.5 into your website.
Type in the email you would like to have the details of your setup set to.
Type in the email you would like to have the details of your setup set to.
To access your Joomla 1.5 go to http://yourdomain.com/”directory you chose” mine would be http://bestreda.com/Joomla, notice that I capitalized the ‘J’ in Joomla because that is how I originally typed it. Once you’ve gotten to this page, you will see the Login Form on the left hand side of the page, this is where you would input your administrator information.
