 To install Gumbo, follow these simple steps:

 1 .    Download Gumbo from https://sourceforge.net/projects/gumbo-cms/files/, extract the archive,

+       and place the files either on your local Apache server document folder or on a remote server where you want your new site to appear. 

 2 .    Create a MySQL database and import gumbo.sql 

 3 .    Open config.php, look for the database settings and insert your own. 
-   Equally, look for any option you may want to customize, such as admin email adress and so on.

 4 .    Open .htaccess and modify the line that starts with SetEnv APP_ROOT_PATH http... so it looks like this :

    SetEnv APP_ROOT_PATH http://127.0.0.1/my_project_name   (depending on your system, you may have to use localhost instead of 127.0.0.1)

 *** TROUBLESHOOTING

-- If clean URLs don't work, check that Apache's mod_rewrite is enabled. Optionally, check you Apache's config file, probably named httpd.conf or apache2.conf. Ultimately, check that CLEAN_URLS is set to true in config.php
-
-- If Apache's mod_rewrite is enabled but loading Gumbo in your browser redirects you to weird urls, check that .htaccess files are not being denied or rejected in your apache's vhost files.
+- If clean URLs don't work, check that Apache's mod_rewrite is enabled. Optionally, check you Apache's config file, probably named httpd.conf or apache2.conf. Ultimately, check that CLEAN_URLS is set to true in config.php and that you have entered the right base URL in both your_site.com/.htaccess and your_site.com/admin/.htaccess. But if Apache's mod_rewrite is enabled but loading Gumbo in your browser redirects you to weird urls, check that .htaccess files are not being denied or rejected in your apache's vhost files.

 - If you find your Gumbo installation to be running a little slow, with weird things happening, eg: mousing over Javascript menus does not trigger sub-menus as expected, or CSS files not loading etc., then check that PHP is being run as a module only, therefore neither as CGI nor fastCGI. Although those specific issues might be caused by something else of course.

    If you are already going live, it will look like SetEnv APP_ROOT_PATH http://www.my-site.com and SetEnv APP_ROOT_PATH http://www.my-site.com/admin

+And you're all set, that's all there is to it, happy customization!

-Note 1 : CLEAN URLS WILL WORK ONLY IF APACHE HTTPD'S MOD_REWRITE MODULE HAS BEEN ENABLED - To check if it has been enabled, load about.php into your broswer.
-Eg: http://127.0.0.1/my_project_name/about.php. If mod_rewrite isn't enabled, then set the CLEAN_URL options to false in config.php.
+*** TROUBLESHOOTING

-Note 2 : To make sure the captcha image from the registration module will work, load the about.php file into your browser and check that the GD library is enabled AND that there is support for JPEG (JPEG Support [YES]).
+- If clean URLs don't work, check that Apache's mod_rewrite is enabled. Optionally, check you Apache's config file, probably named httpd.conf or apache2.conf. Ultimately, check that CLEAN_URLS is set to true in config.php

-Note 3 : on a \*nix server (almost all shared servers are run on *nix systems), you may have to make sure the language folders (called languages) in both front-end and back-end have sufficient priviledge, because of image(flags) uploading processes.

+- If you're having problems updating a language's flag image, check your permissions are high enough within the language folder, do not just 777 everything though.
