NAME

       zoph.ini - Configuration file for Zoph

DESCRIPTION

       zoph.ini  is  a configuration file, usually placed in /etc, that tells Zoph how to connect
       to  the  (MySQL)  database.  Besides  zoph.ini,  there  is  another  configuration   file,
       config.inc.php, which is placed inside the webroot. If you have no write access in /etc or
       have another reason to not put this file there, you should change the INI_FILE setting  in
       config.inc.php and the 'zoph' CLI utility.

       IMPORTANT!   Never,  ever, place it in the same directory as the Zoph PHP files. This will
       enable everyone to download it and read your passwords.

CONTENTS

       zoph.ini consists of one or more sections. A section starts with the name of  the  section
       between square brackets:

              [zoph]

       You should create a section for each Zoph installation on your system. The section name is
       a descriptive name that you can choose yourself. Each section must contain  the  following
       settings:

       db_host
              The hostname of the system that is running your MySQL server, usually "localhost".

       db_name
              The  name  of  the  database.  If  you  have followed the installation instructions
              closely, this will be zoph, but of course you are free to use any other name.

       db_user
              The user to connect to your Zoph database. If you have  followed  the  installation
              instructions  closely,  this will be zoph_rw, but of course you are free to use any
              other name.

       db_pass
              Password to connect to the database. This is what you have set while creating users
              for Zoph in MySQL.

       db_prefix
              Zoph  can  prefix  all  MySQL  table names with a prefix string. This is especially
              useful for people who only have a single database to use and want to  use  multiple
              applications  on,  for  example,  a shared hosting environment. By default, this is
              "zoph_".

       php_location
              With the php_location setting,  you  define  where  the  PHP-files  for  your  Zoph
              installation  are located. This is necessary for the Zoph CLI scripts to locate the
              rest of your Zoph installation.

EXAMPLES

   Single installation
       Most Zoph users will have only one Zoph installation  on  their  system.  This  is  how  a
       zoph.ini for a single installation looks:

              [zoph]
              db_host = localhost
              db_name = zoph
              db_user = zoph_rw
              db_pass = pass
              db_prefix = zoph_
              php_location = /var/www/html/zoph

   Multiple installations
       You  can have multiple Zoph installations on one system. For example, one for yourself and
       one for a family member or friend; or, if you are a Zoph developper, a development  and  a
       productions  environment.  If  you  have  more than one Zoph installation, simply create a
       section per installation. For example:

              [production]
              db_host = localhost
              db_name = zoph
              db_user = zoph_rw
              db_pass = pass
              db_prefix = zoph_
              php_location = /var/www/html/zoph

              [development]
              db_host = localhost
              db_name = zophdev
              db_user = zoph_rw
              db_pass = pass
              db_prefix = zoph_
              php_location = /var/www/html/zophdev

       The webinterface of Zoph will be able to determine which settings it should use  with  the
       php_location  setting. The CLI scripts need the --instance parameter to determine that. If
       you omit the --instance parameter, it will use the first one in zoph.ini.
