</div>So, how does one get it to run? I have a bunch of folders with a bunch<br>
of php files in them--no binary files. I dl-ed into Mandriva, if that<br>
helps.<br></blockquote></div><br>It's a web app, you have to install it into a LAMP infrastructure. You'll need Apache, php and mysql setup properly to begin with. Then you'll drop those PHP files into /var/www/ or wherever Mandriva's version of Apache sets up your web root and open <a href="http://localhost">http://localhost</a> in your browser. Better directions are here: <a href="http://www.sugarcrm.com/crm/support/documentation/SugarCommunityEdition/5.5/-docs-Application_Guides-Sugar_Community_Edition_Application_Guide_5.5GA-toc.html">http://www.sugarcrm.com/crm/support/documentation/SugarCommunityEdition/5.5/-docs-Application_Guides-Sugar_Community_Edition_Application_Guide_5.5GA-toc.html</a><br>
<br>Alternately, you can use one of their stack installers to handle it. I don't know how these work, but directions are here: <a href="http://www.sugarcrm.com/crm/support/documentation/SugarCommunityEdition/5.5/-docs-Administration_Guides-Sugar_FastStack_Installation_Guide_CommunityEdition_5.5-toc.html">http://www.sugarcrm.com/crm/support/documentation/SugarCommunityEdition/5.5/-docs-Administration_Guides-Sugar_FastStack_Installation_Guide_CommunityEdition_5.5-toc.html</a><br>
