Installation & Setup

Prerequisites

• PHP: 7.4 or higher
• Database: MySQL / MariaDB
• Web Server: Apache / Nginx
• Extensions: openssl PHP extension

1. Clone & Upload

Clone the repository or download the source code. Upload all files to your web server's public directory (e.g., public_html or htdocs).

git clone https://github.com/0xarchit/ftp-explorer.git

2. Database Setup

1. Create a new MySQL database.
2. Import the schema.sql file located in the root directory.
   • This will create the necessary auth and ftp tables.

3. Configuration

1. Open config/config.php.
2. Update the database credentials:

   define('DB_HOST', 'your_db_host');
   define('DB_USER', 'your_db_user');
   define('DB_PASS', 'your_db_password');
   define('DB_NAME', 'your_db_name');

3. Important: Change the ENCRYPTION_KEY to a random 32-character string for production security.

4. Default Login

Register a new account on the login screen. The first user registered can start adding FTP servers immediately.
