Moodle is the most popular free PHP-based Learning Management Systems (LMS). To install it on your discountASP.NET hosting account, please follow the general instructions below: * Download the stable moodle package to your local machine from the moodle official site at http://download.moodle.org/ * Unzip the archive to your local drive. * Connect to your site with your favorite FTP client and upload the content of the "moodle" directory to the server. * Create "App_Data" folder on the server in the root of your site if it does not exist yet. Moodle requires a folder that is not accessible directly from the browser. App_Data is the special ASP.NET folder that perfectly serves this purpose. * Visit your installation directory following by /install.php such as yourdomain.com/install.php and proceed with the installation instructions presented by installation wizard. * When prompted, in the "Data Directory" field enter the physical path to your App_Data folder such as "E:\web\YourPrimaryUser\App_Data". * On the next screen of installation wizard, please enter the connection parameters for your MySQL database. You can obtain the connection parameters by visiting your MySQL Database Manager at https://my.discountasp.net/mysql.aspx and clicking "manage" link next to your database. * When prompted, please check "unattended install" to automate the installation process. * After the application is installed, login to your site with 'admin', 'admin' as user name and password and change your password immediately on 'profile' tab.
