XMLNuke can be downloaded in two different ways: as ready-to-use package or as source code. If you download the source code you need to follow the instructions below to prepare your copy to run. We recommend working directly from the source code.

Download the last ready-to-use package:

• http://sourceforge.net/projects/xmlnuke

Download from Brothersoft:

• 

Download the source code:

• svn co https://xmlnuke.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/xmlnuke/trunk xmlnuke

Execute the following script:

• Linux:
  rename-config-files.sh
  
• Windows:
  rename-config-files.vbs
  

After that you are able to create a PHP5 project to run with XMLNuke. Execute the script below and follow the instructions existing in the program:

• Linux:
  create-php5-project.sh
  
• Windows:
  create-php5-project.vbs
  

After this you will have a folder with all needed files to work with XMLNuke. This is a good option to separate your code from the framework and to make it easier to run backups of your data. We recommend to use the project Eclipse PDT to develop applications with XMLNuke. This IDE has all features to make the programmer's life easier.

Projects based on C# are more related to Visual Studio C# Express (a free version of the Visual Studio) or the MonoDevelop for Linux. To create a solution compatible with these IDEs execute the script below:

• Linux:
  mount-relase.sh csharp
  
• Windows:
  mount-release.vbs
  

After this you can create the XMLNuke solution for your project:

• Linux:
  Not existing yet
  
• Windows:
  create-xmlnuke-project.vbs
  

Once your project is running you can access the administration tool using the user "admin" and password "pwd". The web address is http://localhost/xmlnukeadmin.php or http://localhost/xmlnukeadmin.aspx
