$ rm kohana-3.2.0.zip

$ mv kohana-3.2-master-1/modules/ .

$ mv kohana-3.2-master-1/application/ modules/

$ mkdir -p vendor/modules

$ mv kohana-3.2-master-1/install.php html/

$ mv kohana-3.2-master-1/index.php html/

 

 

 

4. Combine the example.htaccess

 

$ nano kohana-3.2-master-1/example.htaccess

$ nano .htaccess

 

 

5. Try opening your site:

http://truvis.co/

Kohana install.php file will report what you need to fix…. hopefully just file paths:

 

6. Fix those paths (you millage may vary):

$ nano html/index.php

———————————————–

$application = ‘../modules/application’;

$modules = ‘../modules’;

$system = ‘../vendor/modules/system’;

————————

<?php

/**
 * The directory in which your application specific resources are located.
 * The application directory must contain the bootstrap.php file.
 *
 * @see  http://kohanaframework.org/guide/about.install#application
 */
$application = '../modules/application';

/**
 * The directory in which your modules are located.
 *
 * @see  http://kohanaframework.org/guide/about.install#modules
 */
$modules = '../modules';

/**
 * The directory in which the Kohana resources are located. The system
 * directory must contain the classes/kohana.php file.
 *
 * @see  http://kohanaframework.org/guide/about.install#system
 */
$system = '../vendor/modules/system';

/**
 * The default extension of resource files. If you change this, all resources
 * must be renamed to use the new extension.
 *
 * @see  http://kohanaframework.org/guide/about.install#ext
 */
define('EXT', '.php');
