These instructions assume that you have a standard, non-IIS enabled Windows machine using Windows 7 or Server 2008. After enabling IIS, the procedures are essentially identical for both Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008.
For installing ownCloud physical access or a remote desktop connection is
required. You should leverage MySQL as the backend database for ownCloud. If you
do not want to use MySQL, it is possible to use Postgres or SQLite instead.

2. It will arrive as a tar.bz2 file, and I recommend something like jZip for a
free utility to unzip it.
3. Once you have the ownCloud directory unzipped and saved locally, copy it into
your wwwroot directory (probably **C:\\inetpub\\wwwroot**).
.. note:: You cannot install directly into the directory **wwwroot** from jzip,
as only the administrator can unzip into the **wwwroot** directory. If you save
it in a different folder, and then move the files into **wwwroot** in windows
explorer, it works. This will install ownCloud locally in your root web
directory. You can use a subdirectory called owncloud, or whatever you want –
the www root, or something else.
The file is downloaded in tar.bz2 format.
4. It is now time to give write access to the ownCloud directory to the ownCloud
server: Navigate your windows explorer over to **inetpub/wwwroot/owncloud** (or
your installation directory if you selected something different).
5. Right click and select properties. Click on the security tab, and click the
button “to change permissions, click edit”.
6. Select the “users” user from the list, and check the box “write”.
7. Apply these settings and close out.
2. Unzip the file and save it locally.
Continue by following the :doc:`installation_wizard`.
Select MySQL as the database, and enter your MySQL database user name,
password and desired instance name – use the user name and password you setup
during MySQL installation, and pick any name for the database instance.

Ensure Proper HTTP-Verb handling
3. Copy the file to your wwwroot directory (for example, **C:\\inetpub\\wwwroot**).
.. note:: Only the administrator can install directly into the directory **wwwroot** from an unzipping application. However, you can save the file in a different folder and then move the files into **wwwroot** in windows explorer. This process installs ownCloud locally in your root web directory. You can use a subdirectory called owncloud (or whatever name you choose).
4. To enable write access to the ownCloud directory to the ownCloud server, navigate your windows explorer to **inetpub/wwwroot/owncloud** (or the installation directory you selected).
5. Right click and select properties.

Ensure Proper HTTP-Verb Handling
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
IIS must pass all HTTP and WebDAV verbs to the PHP/CGI handler, and must not try
to handle them by itself. If it does, syncing with the Desktop and Mobile
Clients will fail. Here is how to ensure your configuration is correct:
IIS must pass all HTTP and WebDAV verbs to the PHP/CGI handler, and must not attempt to handle them by itself or syncrhonizing with the Desktop and Mobile Clients will fail.
#. Open IIS Manager7.
#. In the `Connections` bar, pick your site below `Sites`, or choose the top
level entry if you want to modify the machine-wide settings.
#. Choose the `Handler Mappings` feature click `PHP_via_fastCGI`.
#. Choose `Request Restrictions` and find the `Verbs` tab.
#. Ensure `All Verbs` is checked.
#. Click `OK`.
#. Next, choose `Request Filtering` feature from IIS Manager.
#. Ensure that all verbs are permitted (or none are forbidden) in the `Verbs`
tab.
To ensure your configuration is correct:
Also, ensure that you did not enable the WebDAV authoring module, since ownCloud
needs to be able to handle WebDAV on the application level.
1. Open IIS Manager7.
2. In the `Connections` bar, select your site below `Sites`, or choose the top level entry if you want to modify the machine-wide settings.
3. Choose the `Handler Mappings` feature.
4. Click `PHP_via_fastCGI`.
5. Choose `Request Restrictions` and locate the `Verbs` tab.
6. Ensure `All Verbs` is checked.
7. Click `OK`.
7. Choose the `Request Filtering` feature from the IIS Manager.
8. Ensure that all verbs are permitted (or none are forbidden) in the `Verbs` tab.
.. note:: Because ownCloud must be able to use WebDAV on the application level, you must also ensure that you do not enable the WebDAV authoring module.
Configuring ownCloud, PHP and IIS for Large File Uploads
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Before going too nuts on ownCloud, it is important to do a couple of
configuration changes to make this a useful service for you. You will probably
want to increase the **max upload size**, for example. The default upload is
set to **2MB**, which is too small for even most MP3 files.
Before you begin to use ownCloud heavily, it is important to make a few configuration changes to enhance the service and make it more useful. For example, you might want to increase the **max upload size**. The default upload is set to **2MB**, which is too small for many files (for example, most MP3 files).
To do that, simply go into your **PHP.ini** file, which can be found in your
**C:\\Program Files (x86)\\PHP** folder. In here, you will find a **PHP.ini**
file. Open this in a text editor, and look for a few key attributes to
change:
To adjust the maximum upload size, you must access your ``PHP.ini`` file. You can locate this file in your **C:\\Program Files (x86)\\PHP** folder.
+ **upload_max_filesize** – change this to something good, like 1G, and you
will get to upload much larger files.
+ **post_max_size** – also change this size, and make it larger than the max
upload size you chose, like 1G.
To adjust the maximum upload size, open the ``PHP.ini`` file in a text editor, find the following key attributes, and change them to what you want to use:
There are other changes you can make, such as the timeout duration for
uploads, but for now you should be all set in the **PHP.ini** file.
+ **upload_max_filesize** – Changing this value to something like 1G will enable you to upload much larger files.
+ **post_max_size** – Change this value to be larger than your max upload size you chose.
Now you have to go back to IIS manager and make one last change to enable file
uploads on the web server larger than 30 MB.
You can make other changes in the ``PHP.ini`` file (for example, the timeout duration for uploads). However, most default settings in the **PHP.ini** file should function appropriately.
To enable file uploads on the web server larger than 30 MB, you must also change some settings in the IIS manager.
To modify the IIS Manager:
1. Go to the start menu, and type **iis manager**.
2. Open IIS Manager Select the website you want enable to accept large file
uploads.
3. In the main window in the middle double click on the icon **Request
filtering**.
4. Once the window is opened you will see a bunch of tabs across the top of the
far right,
Select :guilabel:`Edit Feature Settings` and modify the :guilabel:`Maximum
allowed content length (bytes)`
IIS manager launches.
5. In here, you can change this to up to 4.1 GB.
2. Select the website that you want to accept large file uploads.
.. note:: This entry is in BYTES, not KB.
3. In the main (middle) window, double click the icon **Request filtering**.
You should now have ownCloud configured and ready for use.
A window opens displaying a number of tabs across the top.
4. Select :guilabel:`Edit Feature Settings`
5. Modify the :guilabel:`Maximum allowed content length (bytes)` value to 4.1 GB.
.. note:: This entry is in bytes, not kilobytes.
Congratulations! ownCloud is now configured and ready for use.
