C. Installation and Setup Options
Moodle can be installed on a wide variety of server platforms, from a dedicated server in-house, through off-site dedicated servers, virtual servers and web space hosting. Your operational requirements will determine which route is the best to follow.
- We can advise on suitable hosting, and then install and set up Moodle for you. You can then start adding content and building your courses. We normally would like to provide the hosting service for you.
- We recommend and specialise in Linux-based server solutions, but can also install Moodle on Microsoft Windows servers, under Apache (recommended) or Microsoft IIS.
- We prefer to install with MySQL as our major supported database.
- We can install Moodle for you in existing webspace (subject to certain disk space and database requirements being met), or arrange the whole project, starting with choosing a suitable host and acquiring an Internet Domain name.
Please note that remote installation requires the client to provide remote access to the server and a suitable user ID that allows us to perform the system functions that the installation requires (such as installation of services, creation of databases and so on).
We offer 3 installation and setup options.
