Step 1:
In this step, installation will determine if your system meets the requirements for the server environment. To use XML Video Sitemap Generator, you must have PHP with MySQL support, and write-permissions on certain files and folders.
If you get red “No” for writeable check you should change permissions via ftp. If you don’t know which permission to set for this directory try 777 (read/write/execute for all).
Step 2:
Database Configuration: By default script use “New install” when you process it the first time.
Script need some information about how to connect to your database. If you do not know this information, then please contact your website host or administrator. Please note that this is probably NOT the same as your FTP login information!
If you fill fields with correct values you will see confirmation:
The database connection was established successfully.
The database tables were created or updated successfully.
The application configuration file was updated successfully.
Click continue.
