Quick Install Guide
This page will guide you through the installation from the package available on SourceForge.
Maarch Entreprise has been set up for a quick installation with XAMPP installed in c:\xampp.
If you want to try Maarch Entreprise on a Unix/Linux server, you can follow those instructions. Warning: those are written for Maarch Framework 3 sample, but most can apply to Entreprise.
You obviously can use other distribution of Apache/PHP. Then, make sure that you verified and edit config files. In this case, follow Maarch Framework's installation and configuration guide.
| In all case, make sure to follow the following prerequisites to ensure the application works fine. |
Prerequisites
Full details are available here.

Download and install the packages
Get following packages on SourceForge:

Unzip MaarchEntreprise-1.0.zip in C:\xampp\htdocs\maarch_entreprise and MaarchAutoimport-3.1.zip in C:\autoimport.

Create the database and load default data
With an administration tool for PostgreSQL, create a database named "maarch_entreprise", encoded in UTF8.
In the newly created database, load the two sql files:
- C:\xampp\htdocs\maarch_entreprise\structure.sql, to create Maarch Entreprise tables
- C:\xampp\htdocs\maarch_entreprise\values.sql, to load values.
Important 1 : for english users, an english sample data set is available here : Maarch Entreprise Resources
Important 2 : In the folder "C:\xampp\htdocs\maarch_entreprise\core\xml", you will find a file named config.xml.default with default parameters. Copy it to another file named config.xml.
Same thing applys to C:\xampp\htdocs\maarch_entreprise\apps\maarch_entreprise\xml\config.xml.default.
Creation of Document Servers
Document servers are storage spaces for resources registered in Maarch. Create the folowing folders:
- C:\Maarch\Docserver\letterbox_coll\
- C:\Maarch\DocServer\letterbox_coll_ai\
Creation of Zend Lucène (Full text search)
Indexes are basically folders. there is one index per collection used in Maarch Entreprise. Create the following folder:
- C:\Maarch\indexes\entreprise\letterbox_coll
Load sample documents
From now on, you can log in the application as a superadmin (superadmin/superadmin) or as a normal user. We have released two sample document sets (customer invoices and mass scanned documents) to load with Maarch AutoImport.
Those documents are in :
- C:\autoimport\samples\entreprise_scan (mass scan)
- C:\autoimport\samples\entreprise_cold (customer invoices)
Copy the first set of documents and their indexes in the incomming folder of AutoImport:
copy C:\autoimport\samples\entreprise_scan\*.* C:\autoimport\incoming\entreprise
Launch then the import batch: C:\autoimport\autoimport_entreprise_scan.bat
Do the same with the second set:
copy C:\autoimport\samples\entreprise_cold\*.* C:\autoimport\incoming\entreprise
The import batch is: C:\autoimport\autoimport_entreprise_cold.bat
There it is!. You can now fully use Maarch Entreprise ! Follow the Guided tour to know more about it.
