Installation Procedure 
Quick Tips
The script can be downloaded from here.
The file that you will download is saved in .zip format; this is a compressed bundle containing the files in the distribution. Unzip this archive in a temporary directory on your computer using decompression software.
Start your FTP software and upload all content from /install and /html directory to your web server preserving the file structure.
Note: If you want PHP-Fusion to handle the homepage of your site, upload the contents to your website root (/var/www/html/)
Let's assume you install the contents of the PHP-Fusion folder to /var/www/html/

CHMOD the following folders to 777:

To change file permissions using your FTP client, select the file by clicking on it once on the remote system side and then right-click on the file to bring up the option menu and select CHMOD.
CHMOD the file fusion_config.php to 777.
Run the install.php script from your web browser e.g. http://www.mywebsite.com/install.php and follow each step.
Enter your MySQL settings. Please use "127.0.0.1" for the Database host address. Click "Next" to continue.
