WAMP is a handy package application which handles the installation and basic configuration of PHP, MySQL and Apache. It is best to ensure the target machine does not have any of these resources currently installed. Please see the documentation and installation instructions provided with WAMP for more information.

ATiM Application Code Installation

Locate the default web-server directory and copy over the entire ATiM application code. By default the WAMP web server folder can be found at: C:\wamp\www\

Test WAMP installation

Open a web-browser (Internet Explorer or Firefox) and browse to [1]. This should open the launch page for WAMP. Here you can launch 'phpmyadmin' and access ATiM.

Setup Database

Open phpmyadmin and run the ATiM DDL and DML scripts.

Database Access Configuration

Browse to the ATiM folder:

<default WAMP installation path>/atim/app/config/database.php 

Open database.php and verify username/password and database name are correct for the local installation.

Launch Application

Browse to http://localhost. Under “Your projects” select the ATiM project and the application should open!

Security Considerations

Once installed the application security should be reviewed before any confidential participant data is loaded into the database. Please review our Security Requirements page for more information.
