Installing the WEC Starter Package
Enabling the 1-2-3 Install Tool
Before you can run the 1-2-3 Install Tool, you need to make a change to it to enable it to run. For security reasons, the 1-2-3 Install Tool is disabled by default so unauthorized users cannot run your Install Tool.
To enable the 1-2-3 Install Tool:
Using FTP or SSH, connect to your web server and go to the folder where you extracted the zip or tar.gz file. This is probably the root directory for your web server.
Continue to navigate to the subdirectory /typo3/install/ and find the files index.php and index.wec.
Rename the index.php file to index.typo3, then rename the index.wec file to index.php. The original index.php and index.wec files are identical except that lines 45 through 47 are commented out in the index.wec file to enable the 1-2-3 Install Tool to run.
Technical Note: In the php scripting language, the “/*” and “*/” symbols are used to comment out a block of code and keep it from running. The code that is commented out in the index.wec file is the code that disables the install tool. Below you can see what the change looks like.
