How to install Magento engine<\/a><\/p>\r\n

Magento installation requires a few preparation steps. First, create a database<\/strong> for the site. Then log in your Magento account at http:\/\/www.magentocommerce.com\/<\/a>. Create an account in case you don\u2019t have one. Download the required edition of Magento engine<\/strong> and Magento Sample data<\/strong> at http:\/\/www.magentocommerce.com\/download<\/a>. Unzip Magento engine and sample data packages. We recommend that you use Stuffit Expander for MAC OS and WinZip for Windows OS to unzip the files. <\/p>\r\n

Once unzip is completed, you can upload Magento engine files to the server<\/strong>. This can be performed using the file manager on your hosting place or any external ftp manager like Total Commander, FileZilla, etc.<\/p>\r\n

Next, you should upload Magento sample data<\/strong>. Transfer ‘skin’ and ‘media’ folders to the root of Magento installation. <\/p>\r\n

Navigate to phpMyadmin<\/strong> and open the Database<\/strong> created for Magento installation. You will have to import sql file from sample data package – magento_sample_data_for_1.x.x.x.sql. Click ‘Import’<\/strong> tab at the top. Then, using ‘Choose File’<\/strong> button, select magento_sample_data_for_1.x.x.x.sql<\/strong> file from Magento sample data package. Then Click ‘Go’ <\/strong>to start import. You should get a message of successful upload.<\/p>\r\n
