-If you have created your account than the application will allow you to download and install PHsPeed. It is possible that due to bad internet connection the download is aborted. You can always retry later as the license manager will continue where the process stopped.
+After creating your account, you will be able to download PHsPeed. As the overall package is quite large, it is divided into chunks, and download speeds might differ depending on where you live.
-PHsPeed will install a special Xampp edition that allows you to select one of the preset PHP versions, and with XDebug fully configured. It also will install MySQL/MariaDB. When you start PHsPeed then Apache and MySQL will automatically start; when you close PHsPeed, Apache and MySQL will close too.

-===== Use your own database =====
+===== Non-standard installs =====
-Within the preferences, you can disable the use of MySQL. This might be required if you want to use your own (PDO supporting) database. On the other hand, PHsPeed comes with a number of samples, the database is integrated within the supplied database.
+It is possible to run PHsPeed against another webserver and database. However, if this is your first experience, we advise you to install the product standard as all our samples are built and deployed with MariaDB. But you can switch to another configuration at any time. Dependencies are that your configuration supports PHP, and if you want to be able to use the debugger, you must set up XDebug to work on your configuration. Aducom Software does not provide support for other configurations than the standard.
-===== Use your own webserver =====
+===== Using databases =====
-Within the preferences, you can disable the internal webserver. In general, it is not advised because the webserver is using a different port and should not interfere with your current webserver. If required, you can change the used port. If you disable the internal web server then you need to setup PHP and XDebug manually. Aducom Software does not supply support on this.
+PHsPeed can be set up to be used with the most common databases. We have successfully tested MariaDB/MySQL, Oracle, Open-Edge (Progress), SQLServer, SQLite. As most databases have many configuration options, and you can run them on Linux and Windows, we haven't got instructions for all possible situations. We test the databases on a Windows VM and make connections to the PHsPeed Xampp Apache server.
-==== Debugging ====
+How to use PHsPeed with other databases can be found [[:dbsetup|here]]
-PHsPeed IDE has a XDebug client on board. To be able to use it you must make some changes to your php.ini file. The IDE will detect and report issues. With the integrated editors, you will be able to make the required modifications from within PHsPeed.
-==== XDebug ====
-Depending on your webserver it might be that your XDebug section is already in your php.ini file, but not enabled. Just set all disabled items to enable. Another option is to startup PHsPeed, set up the basic preferences and then alter the php.ini within the IDE. On the right side of the screen, you will find the php.ini section. Click on the php.ini and the file will open in the editor. Don't forget to save your file after modification!
-If the section is not in your php.ini, then it might be necessary to add the section yourself. On the website of XDebug.org, you can download the DLL. It has to match your PHP version as well as the exe type of your web server (32/64 bits).
-Below are two sample versions, one for PHP 5 and one for PHP 7. The DLL depends on the PHP version!
-===== PHP 5.6 (Deprecated) =====
-To set up xdebug use the following configuration in your php.ini file:
-  * ; XDEBUG Extension
-  *
-  * zend_extension = "c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.5.12/zend_ext/php_xdebug-2.2.5-5.5-vc11-x86_64.dll";
-  * ;
-  * [xdebug]
-  * xdebug.remote_enable = 1
-  * xdebug.profiler_enable = 1
-  * xdebug.profiler_enable_trigger = off
-  * xdebug.profiler_output_name = cachegrind.out.%t.%p
-  * xdebug.profiler_output_dir = "c:/wamp/tmp"
-  * xdebug.show_local_vars=1
-===== PHP 7.x =====
-The zend_extension file is depending on the php version used. See XDebug.org for documentation and/or download.
-  * [xdebug]
-  * zend_extension ="D:/wamp/bin/php/php7.0.4/zend_ext/php_xdebug-2.4.0-7.0-vc14.dll"
-  * xdebug.remote_enable=On
-  * xdebug.remote_host=localhost
-  * xdebug.remote_port=9000
-  * xdebug.remote_handler="dbgp"
-  * xdebug.profiler_enable = 1
-  * xdebug.profiler_enable_trigger = on
-  * xdebug.profiler_output_name = cachegrind.out.%t.%p
-  * xdebug.profiler_output_dir ="d:/wamp/tmp"
-  * xdebug.show_local_vars=1
