PHP auto-installation package - how to?

[yankleber]

Hello,

I have created that simple PHP application for pictures management (create categories, upload and delete pics, etc). This app have several PHP and INC files and two subfolders with more PHP and INC files.

Ok, this application suppose to be installed in several different Linux servers, and I would like to know how to create an auto-installation package (like that cool Fantastico ones ), that will create automatically the folders and copy the right files to every one.

I have made some research on Google but couldnt find what I am looking for...

Any clues?

Thanks!!!

PS: This is NOT a compiled application for local run. This is a regular PHP script application running on web servers.

are a couple that turned up when I did a basic search. Are you looking for something exactly like Fantastico, or did you mean you wanted to learn how to create something like an install.php file that most big scripts like Forums and Image Galleries come with?

Hey Scriptmaker,

Thanks a lot for the quick feedback.

Not need to be exactly like Fantastico, I just mentioned that to exemplify what I was looking for.

I just need something to help me to quickly generate a distribution package (for half-dummy users), that automatically performs:

• subdiretories creation
• copy of right files into that
• database and tables generation

Regards,
