Re: [Mifos-users] Error installing mifos : page not found

[Oliver.namu <oli...@gm...>]

Hei there, 
I have been trying over the past few months to get acquainted to Mifos , both version 2.x and the Mifos X, but unfortunately I found out that the installation process was not as easy and straightforward as it is described in the installation protocol. I for one , have tried to get it installed on both PC and Mac ( even tried using MAMP,) but still failed to get it up and running. 

It is my impression that this is certainly a consequence of its dependencies as a web based database. For those of us with limited technical knowledge, the alternative is to either resort to the forums , which means spending hours and days searching for a solution on the internet, or find a local Mifos specialist, if at all they are available. Both these resources are scarce in  the typical " cash strapped" setting of a village based or budding MFI. It also creates a lot of frustration which in turn puts off potential users, forcing them to look for other alternatives. 

I do think that an " out of the box " self installation package ( just like Microsoft office package or any other programs ) would go a long way to address these woes. Furthermore, the support forums require a lay out that would easily guide a potential user to potential solution(s). Where possible , it would have been nice to have an online manual, a kind of " FAQ ", based on the common problems or errors usually encountered during the installation and implementation of Mifos.

Regards
David  I
