+INSTALLING TYPO3
+================
+
+TYPO3 is an open source PHP based web content management system released
+under the GNU GPL. TYPO3 is copyright (c) 1999-2013 by Kasper Skaarhoj.
+
+This document describes:
+
+* System requirements for TYPO3
+* Installation routine
+* Upgrade routine
+
+Client browser support
+----------------------
+
+The TYPO3 backend is accessed through a web browser. TYPO3 CMS 6.2 LTS
+supports the following web browsers:
+
+* Internet Explorer 8 and later
+* Google Chrome (Windows, MacOS, Linux)
+* Firefox (Windows, MacOS, Linux)
+* Safari on MacOS
+* and other compatible modern browsers
+
+Server system requirements
+--------------------------
+
+TYPO3 requires a web server with a PHP environment and a database. The minimum
+system requirements for running TYPO3 CMS 6.2 LTS are:
+
+* Webserver capable of running PHP applications (Apache, Nginx, IIS or other)
+* PHP >5.3.7 up to 5.5 (PHP 5.4 or later recommended)
+* MySQL 5.1 up to 5.6 or compatible
+* more than 200 MB of disk space
+
+### PHP environment
+
+* memory_limit set to at least 64M
+* max_execution_time set to at least 30s (240s recommended)
+* register_globals disabled
+* disabled safe_mode (not supported)
+* disabled magic_quotes (not supported)
+* AllowOverride in the Apache configuration includes "Indexes" and "FileInfo"
+ (see FAQ below)
+
+### PHP required extensions
+
+Your PHP needs to support the following extensions. Install will
+check if these are available.
+
+* These are usually part of the standard PHP package on most distributions:
+ * fileinfo
+ * filter
+ * hash
+ * openssl
+ * pcre
+ * session
+ * soap
+ * SPL
+ * standard
+ * xml
+ * zip
+ * zlib
+
+* These might have to be installed separately:
+ * gd
+ * json
+ * mysqli
+
+### Recommended setup
+
+There are plenty of possible setups for high performance TYPO3 installations
+(i.e. using Varnish Cache, Nginx, PHP-FPM, etc). Consider this resource for
+more ideas or suggestions: http://wiki.typo3.org/Performance_tuning
+
+This is a basic recommended setup for best performance and increased
+functionality:
+
+* Apache with mod_expires and mod_rewrite enabled
+
+* MySQL 5.1 or newer
+
+* GraphicsMagick or ImageMagick v6 or newer installed on the server
+
+* PHP
+ * version 5.4 or later
+ * memory_limit set to at least 128M
+ * max_execution_time set to at least 240s
+
+* Additional PHP extensions:
+ * PHP opcode cache, i.e.: apc, xcache, eaccelerator, Zend Optimizer,
+ Zend OPcache, wincache (in case of an IIS installation)
+ * apc caching (with at least 100 MB of memory available)
+ * curl
+ * mbstring
+ * FreeType (usually included within the PHP distribution)
+
+* PHP access to /dev/urandom or /dev/random on Unix-like platforms for
+ increased security. Make sure to add "/dev/random:/dev/urandom" to
+ open_basedir settings if you use it. If these paths are unavailable, TYPO3
+ will attempt to simulate random number generation. This is less secure,
+ reduces performance and throws out warnings in the TYPO3 system log.
+
+* TYPO3 works with PHP's IPv6 support, which is enabled by default since
+ PHP 5.3. If you compile PHP 5.3 on your own, be aware not to use option
+ "--disable-ipv6", because this will break the IPv6 support and the according
+ unit tests.
+
+Installation
+------------
+
+### If SSH and symlinks are possible
+
+If you have SSH access to your webserver and are able to create symlinks,
+this is the recommended way of setting up TYPO3 so that it can easily
+be upgraded later through the Install Tool:
+
+* Uncompress the `typo3_src-6.2.x.tar.gz` file one level above the Document
+ Root of your Web server:
+```
+/var/www/site/htdocs/ $ cd ..
+/var/www/site/ $ tar xzf typo3_src-6.2.x.tar.gz
+```
+
+* Create the symlinks in your Document Root:
+```
+ cd htdocs
+ ln -s ../typo3_src-6.2.x typo3_src
+ ln -s typo3_src/index.php index.php
+ ln -s typo3_src/typo3 typo3
+```
+
+* In case you use Apache, copy the .htaccess to your Document Root:
+```
+ cp typo3_src/_.htaccess .htaccess
+```
+
+You end up with the follow structure of files:
+
+```
+ typo3_src-6.2.x/
+ htdocs/typo3_src -> ../typo3_src-6.2.x/
+ htdocs/typo3 -> typo3_src/typo3/
+ htdocs/index.php -> typo3_src/index.php
+ htdocs/.htaccess
+```
+
+This allows you to upgrade TYPO3 later by simply replacing the symlink
+with a newer version, or by using the integrated "Core Updater" which can
+be found in the Install Tool.
+
+### Windows specifics
+
+On Windows Vista and Windows 7, you can create symbolic links using
+the `mklink` tool:
+```
+ mklink /D C:\
\example.com\typo3_src C:\\typo3_src-6.2.x
+```
+
+Users of Windows XP/2000 or newer can use the `junction` program by
+Marc Russinovich to create links. It can be downloaded at
+http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896768.aspx
+
+Windows users might need to copy `index.php` from the source directory to the
+web site root directory in case the Windows version does not support links
+for files.
+
+TYPO3 Core upgrades through the Install Tool is not supported under
+Windows.
+
+### No SSH and symlinks possible (not recommended)
+
+In case you only have FTP or SFTP access to your hosting environment, you
+can still install TYPO3, but you won't easily be able to upgrade your
+installation once a new patchlevel release is out.
+
+Please note that this is not a recommended setup!
+
+* Uncompress `typo3_src-6.2.x.tar.gz` locally
+* Upload all files and subdirectories directly in your Document Root
+ (where files that are served by your webserver are located).
+* In case your provider uses Apache:
+ * rename `_.htaccess` to `.htaccess`
+
+You end up with this files in your Document Root:
+
+```
+ .htaccess
+ ChangeLog
+ GPL.txt
+ index.php
+ INSTALL.md
+ LICENSE.txt
+ NEWS.txt
+ README.md
+ typo3/
+```
+
+Installation: further steps
+---------------------------
+
+Now access the web server using a web browser. You will be redirected to the
+Install Tool which will walk you through the steps for setting up TYPO3 for
+the first time.
+
+It will check if your environment conforms to the minimum system requirements
+and gives you some suggestions on what to change in case there are any
+discrepancies.
+
+The Install Tool will create the required directory structure for you
+(typo3conf, uploads, fileadmin, typo3temp).
+
+Former versions of TYPO3 required the download of a "Dummy Package"
+(or "Blank Package"). This is no longer required since version 6.2!
+
+TYPO3 Security
+--------------
+
+To ensure a secure installation, you have to make sure that you keep your
+TYPO3 core and the extensions up to date.
+
+* Subscribe to the announcement mailing list. This will inform you about new
+ releases of the TYPO3 core and security bulletins of core and community
+ extensions.
+ http://lists.typo3.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/typo3-announce
+
+* Use the scheduler task "Update Extension List (em)" to update the list of
+ available extensions regularly. You should check regularly, if new versions
+ of these extensions are available and apply these updates.
+
+* For further reading regarding securing TYPO3, please read the TYPO3 security
+ cookbook and other resources.
+ http://typo3.org/teams/security/resources/
+
+Installation FAQ
+----------------
+
+### 1
+Q: Why do I get "500 Server error" when I navigate to my TYPO3 web site
+ immediately after installation?
+
+A: If you are using Apache web server, check the Apache error log for specifics
+ on the error. The cause might be some missing module, or some syntax error
+ in your .htaccess file. The error log is usually located in /var/log/apache2
+ or /var/log/httpd. Check with your hosting provider if you are in doubt
+ where the logs are located.
+
+### 2
+Q: I went through the setup process and created an admin user. Why can't I log
+ in now?
+
+A: If you use MySQL 5.x or newer, try setting it to "compatible" mode. Open the
+ TYPO3 Install Tool under http://example.com/typo3/install/ (where
+ example.com is the web site domain), navigate to "All configuration".
+ Find "setDBinit", and add this line to the top of the input field:
+```
+ SET SESSION sql_mode='MYSQL40'
+```
+
+### 3
+Q: Some modules or extensions make Apache crash on Windows. What is the cause?
+
+A: Fluid uses complex regular expressions which require a lot of stack space
+ during the first processing. On Windows the default stack size for Apache
+ is a lot smaller than on unix. You can increase the size to 8MB (default on
+ unix) by adding to the httpd.conf:
+```
+
+ ThreadStackSize 8388608
+
+```
+ Restart Apache after this change.

-This document is a part of the TYPO3 project. TYPO3 is an open source web
-content management system released under the GNU GPL. TYPO3 is copyright
-(c) 1999-2013 by Kasper Skaarhoj.
-
-This document describes the system requirements for TYPO3 and the installation
-routine.
-
-
-===============================================================================
-System requirements
-===============================================================================
-
-TYPO3 requires a web server with a PHP installation and a database. While TYPO3
-can be configured to run on many web servers with different databases, this
-document assumes that Apache and MySQL will be used. This document does not
-cover using TYPO3 with other databases or web servers.
-
-The following configuration is the minimum required:
-
-- a web server capable of running PHP
-- PHP 5.3.7 or newer with the following extensions:
- - fileinfo
- - filter
- - GD2
- - JSON
- - mysqli
- - openssl
- - pcre
- - session
- - SOAP
- - SPL
- - standard
- - xml
- - zlib
-- memory_limit set to at least 64M in php.ini
-- register_globals is disabled in php.ini
-- MySQL 5.0 or newer
-- 200 MB of disk space
-- AllowOverride in the Apache configuration includes "Indexes" and "FileInfo"
- (see FAQ below)
-- Apache stack size 8MB (or more). (see FAQ below)
-
-The following configuration is recommended:
-
-- Apache 2.x
-- mod_expires and mod_rewrite enabled in the Apache configuration
-- PHP 5.3.7 or newer with the following extensions:
- - cURL
- - fileinfo
- - filter
- - GD2
- - hash
- - JSON
- - mbstring
- - mysqli
- - openssl
- - pcre
- - session
- - SOAP
- - SPL
- - standard
- - xml
- - zlib
-- Safe mode is not supported, thus it must not be activated
-- Magic Quotes is deprecated, thus it should be deactivated
-- memory_limit set to 128M or more in php.ini
-- MySQL 5.1 or newer
-- FreeType 2
-- GraphicsMagick or ImageMagick v6 or newer
-- 200 MB or more of disk space
-- AllowOverride in the Apache configuration includes "Indexes" and "FileInfo"
- (see FAQ below)
-
-TYPO3 uses /dev/urandom or /dev/random on Unix-like platforms for security
-purposes. Access to these files is highly recommended and increases TYPO3
-security. Make sure to add "/dev/random:/dev/urandom" to open_basedir
-settings if you use it. If these paths are unavailable, TYPO3 will attempt to
-simulate random number generation. This is less secure, causes performance
-issues and warnings in the TYPO3 system log.
-
-TYPO3 relies on IPv6 support, which is by default enabled since PHP 5.3.
-Take care not to compile PHP 5.3 with the option "--disable-ipv6", because
-this will break the IPv6 support and the according unit tests.
-
-===============================================================================
-Obtaining TYPO3
-===============================================================================
-
-To get TYPO3, navigate to the following location:
- http://typo3.org/download/
-
-TYPO3 consists of two packages: source and dummy. The source package contains
-files that are the same for every TYPO3 web site. The dummy package contains
-files unique to each TYPO3 installation.
-
-To install TYPO3, both packages must be downloaded.
-
-
-===============================================================================
-Installation: simple (not recommended!)
-===============================================================================
-
-This procedure is not recommended because it makes upgrades harder. However, it
-can be the only option if you hosting company does not provide SSH access to
-the web server.
-
-To install TYPO3, unpack the source package locally. Unpacking will produce a
-directory with a name like typo3_src-x.y.z, where x, y and z correspond to the
-TYPO3 version. For example, the TYPO3 x.y.z source package will create a
-directory named typo3_src-x.y.z.
-
-Next unpack the dummy package. This will create a directory with the name
-dummy-x.y.z. Now create a new directory and copy all files and folders from
-within typo3_src-x.y.z and dummy-x.y.z into this new directory.
-
-Use a FTP or SFTP program or any other available way to upload all files to
-the web server.
-
-Change permissions of the directories and files. The following directories and
-files should be read-only for the web server:
- typo3/
- index.php
-
-All other directories should be writable for the web server. If in doubt,
-contact your hosting company and ask them to assist in adjusting permissions.
-
-
-===============================================================================
-Installation: recommended
-===============================================================================
-
-To install TYPO3, unpack the source package outside of the web site root
-directory on your server. The location must be accessible to the web server.
-Unpacking will produce a directory with a name like typo3_src-x.y.z, where x,
-y and z correspond to the TYPO3 version. For example, the TYPO3 4.6.0 source
-package will create a directory named typo3_src-4.6.0.
-
-Unpack the dummy package in the temporary location on the server. This will
-create a dummy-x.y.z directory. Move all files and directories from the
-dummy-x.y.z directory to the web site root directory.
-
-Linux, Unix and Mac OS X users should use the tar.gz packages and unpack them
-using:
- tar xzf source-x.y.z
- tar xzf dummy-x.y.z
-
-Windows users can use Windows built-in unpacker on unpack ZIP versions of
-packages.
-
-On Linux, Unix or Mac OS X systems create a symbolic link named typo3_src
-pointing to the source package:
- ln -s /var/www/typo3_src-4.6.0 /var/www/example.com/typo3_src
-
-On Windows Vista or Windows 7 create a symbolic link named typo3_src
-pointing to the source package:
- mklink /D C:\\example.com\typo3_src C:\\typo3_src-4.6.0
-
-Users of Windows XP/2000 or newer can use the "junction" program by
-Marc Russinovich to create links. The program can be obtained at:
- http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896768.aspx
-
-Next create link for the typo3/ directory:
-cd /var/www/example.com
- ln -s typo3_src/typo3
-
-Linux, Unix and Mac OS X users also create a symbolic link to index.php
- ln -s typo3_src/index.php
-
-Windows users must copy index.php from the source directory to the web site
-root directory because Windows does not support links for files.
-
-Change permissions and ownership of the directories. This usually requires the
-"sudo" command. Assuming that the web server user is in the group named
-"apache", execute the following commands in the web site root directory:
- sudo chgrp -R apache fileadmin typo3temp typo3conf uploads
- sudo chmod -R g+rwX,o-w fileadmin typo3temp typo3conf uploads
-
-If "sudo" is not available, ask your hosting company to change the permissions.
-
-
-===============================================================================
-Setting up TYPO3
-===============================================================================
-
-To set up TYPO3, navigate to your web site. The TYPO3 installer will run in the
-1-2-3 mode to easily guide you through the installation.
-
-
-===============================================================================
-Troubleshooting
-===============================================================================
-
-For troubleshooting read the FAQ below. If your problem is not listed, feel
-free to ask questions in the TYPO3 mailing lists:
- http://typo3.org/support/mailing-lists/
-
-
-===============================================================================
-FAQ
-===============================================================================
-
-Q: Why do I get "500 Server error" when I navigate to my TYPO3 web site
- immediately after installation?
-A: Make sure that AllowOverride allows "Indexes" and "FileInfo" in the Apache
- configuration. If you cannot ensure this, rename .htaccess files to
- _.htaccess. TYPO3 will run but considerably slower.
- Here is the list of the files to rename:
- typo3/contrib/.htaccess
- typo3/gfx/.htaccess
- typo3/mod/user/ws/.htaccess
- typo3/sysext/.htaccess
- typo3/sysext/t3skin/stylesheets/.htaccess
- If the error does not disappear, web server error logs should help. For
- Apache, the error log is usually located in /var/log/apache2 or
- /var/log/httpd. Check with your hosting provider if you are in doubt where
- the logs are located.
-
-Q: Backend or Installer looks strange, no images just black and white?
-A: Maybe you missed some configuration in your .htaccess file.
- Have a look at typo3_src/misc/advanced.htaccess to find the options
- you might need.
-
-Q: I went through the setup process and created an admin user. Why can't I log
- in now?
-A: If you use MySQL 5.x or newer, try setting it to "compatible" mode. Open the
- TYPO3 Install tool under http://example.com/typo3/install/ (where example.com
- is the web site domain), navigate to "All configuration". find "setDBinit",
- and add this line to the top of the input field:
- SET SESSION sql_mode='MYSQL40'

-Q: Some modules or extensions make Apache crash on Windows. What is the cause?
-A: Fluid uses complex regular expressions which require a lot of stack space
- during the first processing. On Windows the default stack size for Apache
- is a lot smaller than on unix. You can increase the size to 8MB (default on
- unix) by adding to the httpd.conf:
-
- ThreadStackSize 8388608
-
- Restart Apache after this change.
-
-Q: What do I have to do regarding security?
-A: You have to make sure that you keep your TYPO3-core and the extensions
- up to date.
- * Subscribe to the announcement mailing list. This will inform you about new
- releases of the TYPO3 core and security bulletins of core and community
- extensions.
- http://lists.typo3.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/typo3-announce
- * Use the scheduler task "Update Extension List (em)" to update the list of

+TYPO3 CMS 6.2 - WHAT'S NEW
+==========================
+
+TYPO3 is an open source PHP based web content management system released
+under the GNU GPL. TYPO3 is copyright (c) 1999-2013 by Kasper Skaarhoj.
+
+This document provides information about what is new in the 6.2 release
+of TYPO3. An up-to-date version of this document also containing links to
+further in depth information can be found here:
+
+http://wiki.typo3.org/TYPO3_6.2
+
+System requirement changes
+--------------------------
+
+Minimum PHP version requirement raised to PHP 5.3.7. Please upgrade PHP first,
+if you plan to update from an older TYPO3 installation to 6.2!
+
+PHP 5.4 or later is recommended for improved performance.
+
+Consult INSTALL.md for complete system requirements.
+
+Changes and Improvements
+------------------------
+
+### Removed and moved components
+
+* Removed PHP constant PATH_t3lib
+* Moved ExtJS- & JavaScript files from t3lib to typo3
+
+### General
+
+* SpriteGenerator now supports high density sprites
+
+* New default value for cookieHttpOnly setting
+
+The session cookies "fe_typo_user" and "be_typo_user" now have set the
+HttpOnly attribute by default. This will make it harder to steal the cookie
+by XSS attacks.
+
+### Logging
+
+* Logging API PSR-3 compliance
+
+The logger of the Logging API now complies with the PSR-3 standard of the
+PHP Framework Interop Group: http://www.php-fig.org/psr/3/
+
+### Backend
+
+* Categorization API improvements
+
+\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ExtensionManagementUtility::makeCategorizable() can now
+be used multiple times on the same table to add more than one category field.
+The options array (the fourth parameter) now can contain a 'label' to set a
+custom label for each category field.
+
+### Frontend
+
+* Minor API change in \TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\ContentObjectRenderer->getTreeList()
+
+getTreeList() got some cleanup and slightly changed its return result. Former
+versions sometimes returned a trailing comma which is not the case anymore.
+
+Before:
+getTreeList(42, 4) // get pids for pageId 42, 4 levels deep
+result: '0, 22, 11, 4,'
+
+After:
+getTreeList(42, 4)
+result: '0, 22, 11, 4'
+
+### Administration / Customization
+
+* Content-length header (TypoScript setting config.enableContentLengthHeader)
+ is now enabled by default
+
+### Extbase
+
+* Recursive object validation
+
+Validation of object structures in extbase is now done recursively. If a tree
+of objects is created by the new property mapper, not only the top level object
+is validated, but all objects.
+
+* Allow empty validation
+
+In order to make a property required you now need to add the NotEmptyValidator
+to your property. The return value of validators is now optional.
+
+### Fluid
+
+* Image view helper does not render title tag by default
+
+In previous versions of fluid the image view helper always rendered the
+title attribute. If not set, the value of the required alt attribute was set as
+title.
+This fallback was removed with version 6.2. If not specifically set, title
+is not rendered anymore.
+
+Example:
+ Fluid Tag
+
+ will render
+
+ and not

+TYPO3 CMS
+=========
+
+TYPO3 is an open source PHP based web content management system released
+under the GNU GPL. TYPO3 is copyright (c) 1999-2013 by Kasper Skaarhoj.
+
+This document provides a basic introduction to TYPO3.
+
+Getting Started
+---------------
+
+TYPO3 requires a webserver with PHP and a database (MySQL recommended).
+Accessing the backend through a supported browser.
+
+Please see the INSTALL.md in this folder in order to set up a basic TYPO3
+installation on your webserver.
+
+What is TYPO3?
+--------------
+
+TYPO3 is a free and open source Content Management Framework. It is released
+under the GNU General Public License. It can run on several web servers, such
+as Apache or IIS, on top of many operating systems, among them Linux, Microsoft
+Windows, FreeBSD or MacOS X.
+
+TYPO3 was initially authored by Kasper Skårhøj and is now further developed
+by a community of Active Contributors around a small TYPO3 CMS Team.
+
+To get more info about the GPL license, visit

+
+What is a Content Management Framework?
+---------------------------------------
+
+A Content Management Framework is more than just a content management system,
+due to the separation of the streamlined core and optional plugins
+(extensions). TYPO3 has an open API that allows you to extend the frontend (web
+site) and/or backend (administration) functionalities.
+
+The concept of extensions makes TYPO3 capable of being developed and used
+in almost any way you can imagine, either by using any of the many extensions
+which are available for download, or by writing your own.
+
+TYPO3 System requirements
+-----------------------------
+
+TYPO3 is based upon PHP and uses a MySQL database. For more information
+regarding these requirements see the INSTALL.md file in this folder.
+
+Using the Database Abstraction Layer (DBAL) allows one to use TYPO3 with other
+Database Management Systems, like PostgreSQL, Oracle and MSSQL.
+

+Final notes
+-----------
+
+TYPO3 is said to be one of the most sophisticated PHP / Internet related
+applications available, and the more you play with it, the more you will agree.
+
+Due to the advanced level of the code and functionality, a degree of study,
+time and perseverance is required to fully understand it, and get the best from
+it. You should keep trying, as we say it's definitely worth it. TYPO3 is the
+Enterprise Content Management System "for all".
+
+The GPL license allows for developments that are based upon TYPO3 to also be
+freely available under the GPL. Please remember this, because TYPO3 is about
+"Inspiring People To Share". If you are making money with TYPO3 you can donate
+or become a member of the TYPO3 Association.
+
+By becoming a supporting member, individuals and organisations mainly fund
+core development of TYPO3. The decision about what the funds are used for, is
+made by all members of the Association and the Expert Advisory Board (EAB).
+The decisions will be made transparent to the community and especially the
+supporting members. Your funds will also serve for other purposes as laid
+out in the bylaws.
