How to configure TYPO3
Local configuration is done by overriding default values in the
included file, typo3conf/localconf.php. In this file you enter
the database information along with values in the global
array TYPO3_CONF_VARS.
The options in the TYPO3_CONF_VARS array and how to use
it for your own purposes is discussed in the base
configuration file, t3lib/config_default.php. This file sets up
the default values and subsequently includes the
localconf.php file in which you can then override values.
See this page for more information about system
requirements.

php.ini configuration checked:


Current directory in include path
File uploads allowed
Maximum upload filesize too small?
upload_max_filesize=2M
By default TYPO3 supports uploading, copying and moving
files of sizes up to 10MB (You can alter the TYPO3 defaults by
the config option TYPO3_CONF_VARS[BE][maxFileSize]).
Your current value is below this, so at this point, PHP sets the
limits for uploaded filesizes and not TYPO3.
Notice: The limits for filesizes attached to database records
are set in the tables.php configuration files ($TCA) for each
group/file field. You may override these values in
localconf.php or by page TSconfig settings.
Memory limit
memory_limit=128M
Maximum execution time
max_execution_time=3600
Functions disabled: none
Sendmail path not defined!
sendmail_path=
This may be critical to TYPO3's use of the mail() function.
Please be sure that the mail() function in your
php-installation works!
You can check the mail() function by entering your email
address here and press the button. You should then receive a
testmail from test@test.test.
Since almost all mails in TYPO3 are sent using the
t3lib_htmlmail class, sending with this class can be tested by
checking the box Test t3lib_htmlmail below. The
return-path of the mail is set to null@localhost. Some mail
servers won't send the mail if the host of the return-path is
not resolved correctly.

GDLib:
GDLib found
PNG supported
GIF supported
JPG supported (not used by TYPO3)
GIF / PNG issues
You can choose between generating GIF or PNG files, as your
GDLib supports both.
You should watch out for the generated size of the GIF-files
because some versions of the GD library do not compress
them with LZW, but RLE and ImageMagick is subsequently
used to compress with LZW. But in the case of ImageMagick
failing this task (eg. not being compiled with LZW which is
the case with some versions) you'll end up with GIF-filesizes
all too big!
This install tool tests what kinds of GIF compression are
available in the ImageMagick installations by a physical test.
You can also check it manually by opening a TYPO3
generated gif-file with Photoshop and save it in a new file. If
the file sizes of the original and the new file are almost the
same, you're having LZW compression and everything is fine.
TYPO3 prefers the use of GIF-files and most likely your
visitors on your website does too as not all browsers support
PNG yet.
FreeType quick-test (as GIF)

(If the text is exceeding the image borders you are using
Freetype 2 and need to set
TYPO3_CONF_VARS[GFX][TTFdpi]=96.
If there is no image at all Freetype is most likely NOT
available and you can just as well disable GDlib for TYPO3...)
GDLib software information
You can get GDLib in the PNG version from
http://www.boutell.com/gd/.
FreeType is for download at http://www.freetype.org/.
Generally, software for TYPO3 is found at
http://typo3.sunsite.dk/software/ and packages listed at
http://typo3.org/1274.0.html.

It seems that there is no adequate ImageMagick installation


available at the checked locations (/usr/X11R6/bin/,
/usr/bin/, c:\apache\ImageMagick\, c:\php\imagemagick\)

'combine'/'composite' and 'identify' to be available

Write config to localconf.php:


Very Important: Changing Image Processing settings
When you change the settings for Image Processing you
must take into account that old images may still be in
typo3temp/ folder and prevent new files from being
generated! This is especially important to know, if you're
trying to set up image processing for the very first time.
The problem is solved by clearing the typo3temp/ folder. Also
make sure to clear the cache_pages table.
Very Important: Changing Encryption Key setting
When you change the setting for the Encryption Key you
must take into account that a change to this value might
invalidate temporary information, URLs etc.
The problem is solved by clearing the typo3temp/ folder. Also
make sure to clear the cache_pages table.
Update localconf.php
