==Introduction==
BlueSpice is a wiki software.

BlueSpice is used worldwide as a platform for collaborative knowledge management, as a knowledge base in customer support and as an uncomplicated tool for documentation and handbooks.

BlueSpice is mostly used as:

*a central company wiki,
*a technical documentation platform, 
*a quality handbook,
*knowledge management platform,
*documentation tool for research and development.

Add user-friendly extensions to MediaWiki and make your administrators’ lives easier.


=='''Step one: '''Install XAMPP==
To install MediaWiki and BlueSpice you need:

*a web server,
*PHP,
*MySQL.

XAMPP contains all three.

Please note that XAMPP should only be used for testing.


To download and install XAMPP click [https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html here]. 

The download will in the Chrome browser appear as small notification in the left corner at the end of the page.  When download is finish you will get a notification in the corner, marked red as on this image:

Some browsers will ask you, where you want to save the download. In the case of Google Chrome you find the downloaded file in: '''C:\Users\Downloads'''.


When you install XAMPP, you should start '''Apache''' and '''MySQL''' so that they appear green like in this image:

:::[[File:BSiWITHOUTiEng3.png|500x264px]]

In XAMPP click the button '''Config '''for''' Apache'''. Click on '''PHP(php.ini)'''. You should get:

:::[[File:BSiWITHOUTiEng4.png|500x266px]]

Look for''' tidy.dll''' (open the search with Ctrl+F) and delete the semicolon ( ; ) at the beginning of the line ;extension=php_tidy.dll.<br />Save with '''CTRL+S'''


It should look like this:

After this '''stop''' and '''start''' your xampp again:

=='''Step two:''' Install MediaWiki==
Now, when we have XAMPP, download MediaWiki '''[https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download here]'''.

Please pay attention which version you will download. We need MediaWiki 1.27.3, as you see red marked on image below.

To unzip file use: [http://www.7-zip.org/ 7-zip], [http://www.winzip.com/win/en/ winzip], [http://www.izarc.org/ izarc]. When you open the unzipped file it should look like this:

:::[[File:BSiWITHOUTiEng9.png|500x275px]]

Create a new folder in <span style="color: #ff0000"><span style="color: #000000">'''C:\xampp\htdocs'''</span></span>. You can choose a name you like, but it should contain only lettets, numbers, underscore or dash. Name of this folder will be refered to as  <span style="color: #000000">'''{name}''' </span>in later text. Copy the files from unziped folder (seen on the image above) to this newly created folder.

In some cases you might be asked: Do you want to merge? Answer '''Yes'''.

To check if all is ok, type in the browser: '''<span style="color: #000000"><nowiki> http://localhost/{name}</nowiki></span>'''

<span style="color: #000000">You should get: </span>

In the next step insert the '''name of the wiki, your username, password and e-mail address.'''
