[ NEW INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ]
========================================================================

The following steps will guide you through the process of setting up
WHMCS on your server.

1. Unzip the contents of the zip file to a folder on your computer

2. Rename the file configuration.php.new to configuration.php

3. Upload the entire whmcs folder to your website in binary mode - you
  can rename the folder to whatever you like (billing,clients,etc)

4. If you don't have Ioncube installed on your server then simply upload
  the runtime loaders folder named "ioncube" also included in the zip
  file to the whmcs directory

5. CHMOD the following folders & files:

  /configuration.php 777
  /attachments 777
  /downloads 777
  /templates_c 777

5. Run the installation script at
  http://www.yourdomain.com/whmcs/install/install.php
   
6. This will guide you through the rest of the setup process. On the
  last step, it will ask you to setup a cron job and provide you with
  the exact command you need to use. If you fail to do this, then
  automated tasks will not be performed.

7. Once complete, delete the install folder from your web server and
  CHMOD the configuration.php file back to 644.
