How to install Keitaro TDS using TimeWeb hosting as an example

Greetings! In this article I will show you how to install Keitaro TDS on your hosting.
This tracker is needed to filter traffic from bots and there are many other features it supports. If you're in the business of attracting traffic, whether it's newsletters or arbitrage or whatever, this tds will help you.

So you can download it here >>.
For the link to work, you need to subscribe to this channel on Telegram >>

And then follow instructions below, to install tracker on your hosting. I'll show you an example of timeweb hosting, you can use any hosting or server.

1. It's necessary to pour the downloaded archive to the hosting and unpack this archive:

2. Then create a MySQL database and write the data to connect to it in the file config.ini.php

To do this, go here:

Create a new database, for example you can call it keitaro and make up a password.
Write all the data down somewhere.

After creating the database, you need to make changes to the file config.ini.php
Path to the file on the hosting should be as follows: application/config/config.ini.php

You open it and enter your data from a previously created database:

Then you save this file.

3. Now you need to import the data from the database.sql file into the created database.
To do this, go to the MySQL database section:

And you need to click on phpMyAdmin, a window will open where you need to enter your password from the database and click "Login".

In the panel you press "import" and select the file database.sql (this file is in the archive with the keitaro)

Click forward and import the data from this file. If everything is successful, you can close this admin panel and go to the hosting.
In the folder with the keytaro you need to delete that very file database.sql, it is no longer needed.

4. Next, you need to set the attributes for the folder var 755 for the entire directory:

File -- Access rights -- 755 and save.

5. Now you need to configure Crontab, go to this section on the hosting and add a new task:

File type - Executable binary file;
Frequency - Every minute;
Click on the file selection button, select cron.php in the folder where you uploaded the keitaro archive.
Then add before the line /opt/php5.6/bin/php
Make sure you put a space between these commands.

If your site has PHP 7.0 enabled, use /opt/php7.0/bin/php

Create a task. This creates the scheduler.

6. It remains to update the keitaro base.
The most convenient is to do it through ftp client, for example filezilla.
You can download a newer base in the channel >>.

Connect via ftp and overwrite files from var folder, you can do it by dragging these folders in var folder on hosting:

7. Go to the keitaro admin, at:
http://YOURDOMAIN.RU/admin or whichever folder you have created.

Enter the data
Login: admin
Password: admin

Then in the profile settings I recommend to change the password to your own.

This completes the installation and configuration of keitaro tds.
Now you can create campaigns, create links, etc.

A more detailed video course on working with keitaro can also be found in the channel.

I think I've covered the installation of one of the most popular trackers in enough detail.
