Loading the database manually

The manual configuration page is completely silent about loading the database manually. I realize that you all really want people to use the setup wizard, but the best way for a hard-core developer to learn is to do everything manually.

Is there any interest in having me write up a documentation page for postgres once I figure out what all needs to be done?

Thanks for pointing this out. I just added a small paragraph that reveals the necessary information.

Yeah, feel free to write & post a PostgreSQL doc-page on this matter.

The "do it all for you" approach is not necessarily the best one. The wizard may have done things properly but in the process it bashed my php and mysql installations. I wasn't even given a warning or option to preserve them. I ended up removing ez completely and reinstalling php and mysql on my winxp system so everything worked properly again.

Do you have an install that works with existing installtions of php and mysql?

I also don't want Apache installed. I love it, I use it unconditionally on linux systems but I'm developing for a windoze customer now and I am using iis5.

There should be some intelligent options up front before leaping into the install.

Well, if you've PHP and MySQL installed already, then you
shouldn't use the eZ publish bundle/installer. Please read the
documentation before complaining. Both the installation docs
and the download page states that an eZ publish
bundle/installer will install all required software to
run eZ publish 3 (PHP, Apache and MySQL) - and that
the installers/bundles are for testing purposes only
(in other words: not production environments).

>I wasn't even given a warning or option to preserve them.

Again, please read the documentation:
http://ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/documentation/installation/bundled_installation/ez_publish_bundle_for_windows_based_systems

>Do you have an install that works with
>existing installtions of php and mysql?

Yes, indeed. Download the latest eZ publish stable "distribution",
you would probably want to grab the .zip file since you're using
Windows:

http://ez.no/content/download/41606/106247/file/ezpublish-3.2-3.zip

Read the installation docs:
http://ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/documentation/installation/normal_installation/installing_ez_publish_on_a_windows_based_system

>I also don't want Apache installed. I love it, I use it

The file I just pointed out contains eZ publish only, nothing else.
Regarding IIS5: eZ publish might or might not work with IIS. Again,
please read the documentation, which clearly states the
requirements for running eZ publish:

http://ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/documentation/installation/normal_installation/requirements_for_doing_a_normal_installation

>There should be some intelligent options up

"Intelligent options", such as? I'm sorry about eZ publish
causing you problems, please read the documentation.
All the information you need about the different
installation methods can be found here:

http://ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/documentation/installation

When you've installed eZ publish and it is up and running,
I suggest that you read the "eZ publish basics" chapter:

http://ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/documentation/ez_publish_basics

You might also want to check out the "Building an eZ publish
site" tutorial/quick-start guide:
