There are two ways to automatically install Coppermine through your cPanel. Through Simple Scripts, or QuickInstall.
1. Login to the cPanel for your hosting package, commonly found at http://www.yourdomainname.com/cpanel (yourdomainname.com should be replaced with your actual domain name)
2. Click on the Simple Scripts module under the Software/Services section. 3. Click on Coppermine under the Photo Galleries section. 4. You will see a description of Coppermine. Click the Install link just below the description.
5. On the resulting page, select the desired version of Coppermine from the Which version of Coppermine would you like to install? drop down menu (we strongly recommend the latest stable version) and select the domain name that you would like Coppermine installed on from the Where would you like Coppermine installed? drop down menu.
6. You have the option to specify what directory you would like Coppermine installed in, which is the field after the domain name. If you want Coppermine to be the first thing a visitor sees, leave the field empty. If you want Coppermine to be installed in a sub-directory, type in the name of the directory into that field. (If the directory doesn't exist, Simple Scripts will create it for you)
7. Check the box to agree to the terms and conditions and then click the Complete button.
8. The resulting page will contain your new Gallery site URL, login URL, username and password (These can all be changed at any later time through the Coppermine admin section).
Congratulations. You have installed Coppermine on to your site.
