Installation instructions

Recommended installation

To install Akeneo PIM for a PIM project or for evaluation, please follow: http://docs.akeneo.com/master/installation/installation_workstation.html

Create a Akeneo PIM project with Composer

Alternatively, you can install Akeneo PIM with Composer, but please make sure that all requirements are fulfilled.

If you don't have Composer yet, download it following the instructions on http://getcomposer.org/ or just run the following command:

    $ curl -s https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

Due to some Oro Platform limitations, you MUST create your database before launching composer.

Please note that you will certainly need to provide your GitHub credentials with this method, A lot of our dependencies are coming from GitHub and this reaches the max limit of 50 API calls from anonymous users.

    $ php composer.phar create-project --prefer-dist akeneo/pim-community-standard ./pim-project "1.3.*@stable"

After that, follow the instructions here: http://docs.akeneo.com/master/installation/installation_workstation.html#installing-akeneo

Write permissions

The following directories must be writable for both the CLI user and the Apache user:

  • app/cache
  • app/logs
  • web/bundles
  • app/uploads/product
  • app/archive

See http://docs.akeneo.com/master/installation/installation_workstation.html#apache for an alternative solution.

Add translation packs (optional)

You can download translation packs from crowdin: http://crowdin.net/project/akeneo

The Akeneo PIM archive contains a 'Community' directory.

To add a pack you have to :

  • rename the directories by following the rule 'src/Pim/Bundle/EnrichBundle' to 'PimEnrichBundle'
  • move this directory to app/Resources/
  • run php app/console oro:translation:dump fr de en (if you use en, fr and de locales)

Connect to your PIM application

Go to http://akeneo-pim.local/ for production mode or http://akeneo-pim.local/ for production mode.

You can now connect as Akeneo administrator with the following credentials:

  • username: "admin"
  • password: "admin"

Generating a clean database

By default, when you install the PIM, the database is preconfigured with demo data.

If you want to get only the bare minimum of data to have a clean but functional PIM, just change the following config line in app/config/parameters.yml:

    installer_data: PimInstallerBundle:minimal

Then relaunch the install with the db option:

$ php app/console pim:installer:db --env=prod

Known issues

  • with XDebug on, the default value of max_nesting_level (100) is too low and can make the ACL loading fail (which causes 403 HTTP response code on every application screen, even the login screen). A working value is 500: xdebug.max_nesting_level=500

  • not enough memory can cause the JS routing bundle to fail with a segmentation fault. Please check with php -i | grep memory that you have enough memory according to the requirements

  • some segmentation fault and zend_mm_heap corrupted error can be caused as well by the circular references collector. You can disable it with the following setting in your php.ini files: zend.enable_gc = 0

  • When installing with php composer.phar create-project... command, error about Unable to parse file "<path>/Resources/config/web.xml".. It seems an external issue related to libxml, you can downgrade to libxml2.x86_64 0:2.6.26-2.1.21.el5_9.1.
