Install the Freeside distribution:
<ul>
<li>Add the user `freeside' to your system.
<li>Allow the freeside user full access to the freeside database.
<ul>
<li> with <a href="http://www.mysql.com/Manual_chapter/manual_Privilege_system.html#Privilege_system">MySQL</a>:<pre>$ mysqladmin -u root password '<i>set_a_root_database_password</i>'
$ mysql -u root -p
mysql> GRANT SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE,INDEX,ALTER,CREATE,DROP on freeside.* TO freeside@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '<i>set_a_freeside_database_password</i>';</pre>
<li> with <a href="http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/7.1/postgres/user-manag.html#DATABASE-USERS">PostgreSQL</a>
</ul>
<li>Add the freeside database to your database engine. (with <a href="http://www.mysql.com/Manual_chapter/manual_Reference.html#CREATE_DATABASE">MySQL</a>) (with <a href="http://postgresql.readysetnet.com/users-lounge/docs/7.1/postgres/managing-databases.html#MANAGE-AG-CREATEDB">PostgreSQL</a>)
<li>Unpack the tarball: <pre>gunzip -c fs-x.y.z.tar.gz | tar xvf -</pre>
<li>Build and install the Perl libraries:
<pre>
$ cd FS/
$ perl Makefile.PL
$ make
$ su
# make install UNINST=1</pre>
<li>You should run a separate iteration of Apache[-SSL] with mod_perl enabled as the freeside user.
</ul>

<li>Run <tt>make aspdocs</tt>
<li>Copy <tt>aspdocs/</tt> to your web server's document space.

<li>Copy <tt>htetc/global.asa</tt> to the Global directory.
<li>Configure Apache for the Global directory and to execute .cgi files using Apache::ASP. For example:

<ul>
<li>Restrict access to this web interface. (with <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/misc/FAQ.html#user-authentication">Apache</a>)
<li>Create the necessary <a href="config.html">configuration files</a>.
<li>Create the `/usr/local/etc/freeside/counters.<i>datasrc</i>',
`/usr/local/etc/freeside/cache.<i>datasrc</i>', and
`/usr/local/etc/freeside/export.<i>datasrc</i>' directories for each <i>datasrc</i> (owned by the freeside user).
<li>As the freeside user, run bin/fs-setup to create the database tables.
<li>freeside-queued was installed with the Perl modules. Start it now and ensure that is run upon system startup.
<li>Now proceed to the initial <a href="admin.html">administration</a> of your installation.
